The band I'm in just released our second single. Always loved punk so wrote a song about the ruling political party in Namibia

We are busy trying to come up with a new band name. We are a strictly blues rock band and the BL wants us to be called genrevauge :help:

We had 4 gigs landed up before and all of them have been moved mostly to end of the year. There are one or two venues that we've spoken to about gigs. both say we can play but only once things get back to some kind of normal. And no one knows when thatll be

There's only 2 drummers in a 200km radius so here we never say my drummer or our drummer we just call them by name:D

Ooh I'm starting to get really excited. Been checking out new and used online as I'm in Africa so some places don't ship to Namibia. 3rd world problems

From preamp to sound guys and back again! We've done a few gigs and we always have enough monitors. Usually the rythym guitarist and myself share one monitor with mostly bass and vocals as he has his huge amp and cab behind us next to my little 112. Luckily we get along really well and the two...

Thanks for the replies guys. Will see what's available and what I can get my hands on

If this has been posted already please send me the right way. Couldnt find the right thread through search. What's going on is that I have a peavey max112 combo amp (about 13years old) and a 82 Ibanez pj bass. I play in a blues rock band where the rig is sufficient but I also play in a hard...

We finally got around to opening a YouTube page so here's the first single. Our guitarist made the video which I'm not to stoked on I thought the video could've been better but he and the lead singer like it a lot

Here's a logo I made for a band I play in. We still haven't decided on a name but seeings as we always get together on a Thursday night I thought it was appropriate. We're also for namibia so those are dunes at the bottom with the night sky:D

Seeings as I know can easily put aside 2 hours at least to play bass I'm trying to write songs (which I've never done before) and been starting from beginners level again reminding myself of all those little things that I might have forgotten. Also going through scales and arrpegios in all...

Wow you guys are killing it! Namibia was only been on lockdown for about 2 weeks and spent a lot of time redoing the garden but have managed to try my hand at writing songs. with everyone stuck at home the BL told us all to write stuff and see what comes out. Laptop went bust that's why some...

I like it. Well done!

I know black star have tiny little bass amps that run on 9 volt power or 6 AA batteries. Ok for around a campfire but not really a performing rig even with the Extra cab you can slave on

Thanks!

Was turned into the thread just like Helix above me! I joined an originals band middle last year after their bassist left to pursue another band. Can't seem to figure out how to post a vid but here's the website www.projectmothball.com

Dude that's awesome! set it off is probably my favourite though:D

Hey I used to be a video editor, although never did a band promo. Everyone seems to have said all that needs to be said, cut down the time, match the audio and video and get a better audio mix. Try opening and closing with bang and your band logo that way its the first and last thing people see...

at my first gig (above photo after playing with the band for only 4 months) i would of thought "man that bassist is boring as hell, don't think he knows whats going on" now after actually getting more comfortable with the stuff we play and working on stage presence i would like to think i'm...

I always loved the bass more than any other instrument in songs. It just always sounded so good and made you wanna move. Decided to buy a 2nd hand bass off a friend for like 30us when I started skateboarding and dookie just came out. That album blew me away, loved the fast booming sound and the...

To add to what afro said what helped me with branch out into other parts of the neck was to play the scales in 3 different positions. Starting either on the index middle or ring finger. That way you can work your way through the entire neck you just start on a differnt fingering when you get to...

now would be a great time to come as we are finally getting rain after like 4 years. if you look out over the desert its like a football pitch of green with these mountains sticking out. there's also a farm in the south that has a pan of lillies that only grow there for 5 days if the pan is full...

No stage plot. They asked how many members in the band and if we are ok to play 45 min set.

Ja ich bin hall deutsch! Almost everyone can pull of a little German. It's weird if you can only speak 2 languages in namibia

You guys are awesome! Thanks for the info will meet with the band tomorrow to discuss everything and put minds at ease. Will definitely post a thread on how the festival went once it's happened. Thanks again guys

Madisa festival by nambassist posted Mar 3, 2020 at 8:51 PM

Wow thanks a lot Cliff.I've been to a festival before but not as a musician on stage so this was a good indication as to what to expect as an artist, cause when your going to a festival to party you have no idea what happens behind the scenes. They don't have a website only a Facebook page...

My band has been booked at an outdoor festival. It'll be the first festival we'll play, it's the madisa festival in the namib desert. Yes were from Africa :D We are all really nervous about it cause none of us have done something like this before. Biggest gig we've done is a 3 band show. So...

:drool: oh wow that's such a beauty!!!

Ooh that fretless must be so nice! If it's the 1 in you pic it looks amazing!

hey guys! I got this bass a while ago as an "upgrade" from my old one (a basic suzuki 4 string) from a guitarist friend of mine. All he asked for payment was that i played bass with him. searched the serial number and turns out its a 81 Seems to still be all original including the case (from...

Thank you guys SO much! I really thought this was to good to be true but it is. will sell my car if I have to! thanks again guys

Ask the guitarist now if he can get the guy to send a pic of the serial number when he gets back. The dude lreaddy sent it to him he just neverpased it on. what site do I check the serial number on?
