Silhouette with the Devil

[chrisglancy]

Hey guys,

I just want to say how much of a blast I had at the the London International Music show. To top it all off the Knucklehead bash was amazing. I even was temped to get up a Dual with the Devil.

I though I played okay considering all the Red Stripe I had consumed.

Rock and roll and a huge thank you to Pete, Alan, the Devil, EBMM and Strings and Things (UK) for being such great hosts!

here is a funny picture for you all:

Also what a great guitar!

Cool. Nice pair of D13 amps too. Where they provided by the house?

 

[chrisglancy]

Yea they were provided, they had some cool blackstar pedals too

So...who is this devil character? You on the forums? Looks like a great time....

 

[Jimmyb]

The Devil has posted on the forums and he seemed to have an indication of some forumites to choose as 'volunteers' or 'victims' as they are also known.

He's from Yorkshire, but is a good guy despite that

Koogs, it was Albert Lee in the flesh! (According to Beth, and I would assume she knows!)

 

[Blind Lemon]

The amps were provided by Dave B

Not unless he went through a time machine was made 2" taller lost his hair, changed his accent and drank with us after the basH!

Chris thanks for duelin!

 

[Spudmurphy]

Albert had to play elsewhere that night (with his son I bleeb)
I'll get up with the devil next year and show how few notes you need to play (that's my excuse anyway.)

The devil should play more - he was a cabaret act in his own right.

Cheers again Sterling - t'was a fab time!!

 

[DaveB]

Hey in the setup I whipped the devils ass!

Those Sheffield boys are overrated!

Dave

P.S. The amps were cool werent they

 

[Big Poppa]

dave thanks a bunch for your help

 

[Blind Lemon]

Dave, I forgot to say thanks for the backline, cheers mate.

I would also like to say thanks to the Bushman Brothers who provided the drums and PA and played a great set.

Thanks Brian and Steve, also thanks to Andy James ( The shredder) and Dario Cortese the cool dude. I just love that Hot Wired tune dude!!!!!! You guys all played really well as usual.

No problemo - it was a lot of fun to be there.

Dave, that KOA ASS looked really sweet. How are you enjoying it?

 

[Blind Lemon]

Hey Devil dude, Where are you man? We're all waiting for your comments.

 

[Jimmyb]

He's probably feeding the whippet....

It plays great - still think I prefer the oil finished or rosewood necks but the top looks amazing and it sustains so well (I assume it has a toneblock), that and its the only one in the UK.

Hey Devil dude, Where are you man? We're all waiting for your comments.

Blind Lemon, forgot my password, had to jump through many security hoops to get back on. Nice to know though that we're all fairly well protected.

Had a great time at the bash, glad it all worked out for you and Dave B, knew that your bottom was tweaking a bit leading upto the 5 o'clock start. Thanks for making the effort to put on a top party.

Good to meet a lot of the forum members and put a few names to faces.

Dave B, JimmyB and SPKirby - Been reading your entries.......hmmm wonder who will be the first ones up next year then!

Colinboy - Thanks for the pint of Guinness, finished off the evening just nice.

Special thanks to "The Bushman Brothers" for sorting the P.A. and getting everyone a great sound, Dave B for bringing cool amps, and Keith from Blackstar for lending me some pedals.

Also thanks to the guys who got up and put themselves in the firing line. Without out you I would have no one to duel with and would probably get fired!

Hope everyone enjoyed it and lets hope we can look forward to doing it all again next year.

P.S. I am not Albert Lee!
