Have a good one Jimbo. Saw him in Liverpool last October and he was in great form, hope you get 'Cromwell in Ireland', classic.

Erm...... The big man sadly pisses all over Mac's amateurish attempts at solo shows....

Fantastic concert as per usual plenty of banter, great tunes from his entire back catalouge up until his recent album......

And yes he did do "Cromwell In Ireland"........

Superb Stuff.....

And his insurance probably doesn't allow for it.

his new alum gets a full page (8/10) review plus Q&A in uncut this month. Also he's another flogging stuff off:

get yourself a bargain bass, plus a few boxes that may have speakers in them.

At least you can be sure the gear both belonged to him and was used by him.....

the infos pretty clear - the amps/cabinets are restoration projects not yet finished (hence low min bid), and the bass used relatively recently.

that book is a great read. got it as a christmas present last year. love the section on .... van halen.

saw sir julian a couple years back in liverpool for the firs time. great vibe, great show and his drone stuff is the best.

although i think he's a bit of a self agrandising nob with only a fraction of the talent he thinks he has (but only if certain others had the work ethic eh) his website is quite funny now and again. final missive on stuff here (not sure why its a final, missed that) but lays into wiley a bit here...
