Default The Moorings has it's own backline now

We bought our own backline on Saturday afternoon. This consists of a Marshall AVT100 (100W single speaker, 3 channel with DFX, with footswitch), Fender Dynatouch Plus Deluxe 90 DSP (90W single speaker), Ashdown Electric Blue 15-180 combo bass amp (180W 15" speaker).

These amps are on par with the gear that most bands bring in, the 100W Marshall being a common choice. Although not hugely powerful, given that everything is mic'd up this works really well.

We purchased the backline primarily for our open mic night, but if anyone wants to use all or part it during a MOORINGS gig then they are welcome.

The bar already has it's own Premier drum kit with symbals, hats, snare, and pedal. I also bought a new set of skins for that.

See you at the open mic session on Sunday evenings 7pm onwards.

Haha brilliant night.....those losers inept 303 were reunited with their original bassist Neil, and did a couple of blink tracks, an inept 303 track "never growing up"....and a cringe worthy, unscripted, unrehearsed, sheer jamming at its worst version of "Pretty fly for a white guy" which was....anarchy....

I'm sure people will respect the equipment, just as Flash will respect their right not to be thrown in the harbour with a breeze block tied to their feet.

So...the equipment won't be respected at all?
