hey guys you should check out isralie band The Apples they are a truly funky band with live drummer and double bass player, two djs and a full brass section!!!

When are you looking for Dates? Might be able to get you on one in Bristol on the 16th, With a Reggae hip hop band, and my jazz hip hop band? let me know asap, there will be hardly any money i'm afraid gigs around here are crap for original music and paying, but 90% of the bands bring it on...

they have nash in one of the shops i went in, but i didnt play it, anyone got any experience with these? they looked nice, but I dunno, I kind of subscribe to the vintage bass with the wood maturing etc kind of thing

Do they have a myspace so I could check it out? I'd love a 68 but money is the problem, they are very expensive here.

So i'm looking round for a vintage bass, i have around 2 pushing 2 and a half thousand pounds to spend, I've been looking at jazz bass's but I'd like a sixties one as I like the sound and the feel etc, fell in love with a 65 the other day but that was six and a half thousand!! I've always...
