ghost Posted March 1, 2004 Report Share Posted March 1, 2004 This isn't really an in depth review as I only caught the last 3 songs of Hookers Green's set, but boy oh boy it was good. Loved the dual drumming, and coupled with Mike's basslines you got totally drawn into the songs. The place was packed out too which made a lovely change.Critical comment - the brass section sounded muddy and rather overawed by the rest of the instruments - don't know if this was because the mics were too close to the instruments (ie: inside them) or they were just badly EQ-ed.Hoping others can come in and add their thoughts here.

I've noticed with the few times I've seen hookers green live that the brass sections can sound a bit muddy... but meh... they still played a great show.

Thank you very much, though I don't think my basslines were that important, but glad they were appreciated in my final gig... I thought the whole thing was great, everyone in the band had a good time I think, it was certainly my favourite gig by a mile... Thought the first song (which I didn't play on) was great, bodes very well for the future I thought... who knows, if I move back, maybe I can convince them to let me play bagpipes for them...

Guest Posted March 4, 2004 Report Share Posted March 4, 2004 I only had eyes for alcoholic and shiny things that evening... my brain was in for repair back at the lab.That's unless you had a disco ball attached to your head? Then I saw you... but I swear it was on the ceiling... I could be wrong.We shall meet again, Simpson... one day... one day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
