is someone organising a Glastonstock ??

# Posted by Rob Redfern, Black Rose,more f... - 21/06/2010, 15:50 (GMT)

nah just a theoretical blog

# Posted by Ian - Rocking Horse - 21/06/2010, 15:52 (GMT)

I only know a few people off here but I would work with most of them

Daz from hare of the dog
Ian Riff Raff
DC Trio
Tony from Band of gypsies (cracking voice)
Stuart From RFB
Sin after sin
probably loads more but I can't think of the names at the moment

# Posted by Poundstone - 21/06/2010, 16:09 (GMT)

I've worked with a few peeps off here in various guises and capacities and can honestly say I'd have no problem gigging with any of em in the future. Alyerpal, Chris (ride on), Ben Murray, Kingpin Roj have all depped in the kicks and are all diamond geezers, and I've met some really good folks who though we've never jammed I'd be delighted to share a stage with if the opportunity ever arose!

# Posted by Rob Redfern, Black Rose,more f... - 21/06/2010, 16:20 (GMT)

# Posted by Ian - Rocking Horse - 21/06/2010, 16:21 (GMT)

doesnt necessarily have to be ass kissing you may not even like the some people on here, but may be impressed by what they do,sting and stewart copeland think each other are superb, but they really cant stand each other

# Posted by Rob Redfern, Black Rose,more f... - 21/06/2010, 16:43 (GMT)

theres a big difference between ass kissing and just being a generally decent person that respects others and their opinions, even if you disagree

# Posted by Ian - Rocking Horse - 21/06/2010, 16:44 (GMT)

my ass is so large it takes a lot of kissing to get it covered :-p

# Posted by Ian from Bolton - 21/06/2010, 16:45 (GMT)

Without kissing a single arse, I have definitely played with a number of people on here:
Ian from Riff Raff and T'Ruins - always fun to play with him and Sag. They know millions of songs, have no fear, know exactly how to improvise and are brilliant players.
Waz, when we were in T'Runners together.
Paul Bowers - an excellent player.
Ken from Hare of the dawg - what a drummer.
We've had Max up with us - always good to see him.

Alec from Night Train may get me up with him at some point. That would be good.

A series of Bad Habits reunion gigs may be on the cards at some point, probably next year.

No plans to do any moonlights at all (except as last minute emergency one-offs), as my time-off is valuable. I've stopped taking sessions and going to jam nights for that reason.

.... and isn't it true that Supergroups never work!!
They generally turn into a night of the same old boring jam night songs.
Two people asked me for Freebird the other night and I had to explain how it brings me out in a rash, even if it comes on the radio.

# Posted by ST Photography - VIVA LA COMMU... - 21/06/2010, 16:54 (GMT)

I think everyone on NWB is great. I love you all. I won't have a bad word said about any of you. I would work with every single one of you given the chance. GROUP HUG x

# Posted by Rob Redfern, Black Rose,more f... - 21/06/2010, 16:55 (GMT)

yep i moderate my own blogs, when i am not hugging trees and helping pensioners across the street :-)))))

# Posted by Bad Horsie (Mick) - 21/06/2010, 16:55 (GMT)

Splendid!

# Posted by Rob Redfern, Black Rose,more f... - 21/06/2010, 16:58 (GMT)

its ok, if it gets daft(which lets be honest it always does, and i own up to some tongue in cheek inflamming and piss taking on purpose to watch for the predictability of the responses ) i will just delete the whole F**kin blog he he

disclaimer this is not an ass kissing blog, i think the blog subject is an interesting one?

# Posted by Rob Redfern, Black Rose,more f... - 21/06/2010, 17:00 (GMT)

ha ha thats funny ST like it, sarcasm is the bets form of wit, its one of my religions too :-)

# Posted by ST Photography - VIVA LA COMMU... - 21/06/2010, 17:01 (GMT)

Who's being sarcastic. There isn't a single person on NWB that I would not work with. There's a few that wouldn't step in the same room as me though. Shame!

# Posted by Wangies - 21/06/2010, 17:01 (GMT)

Roberto, don't get giddy but i've just pm'd u from the corset boudoir!!!

# Posted by Rob Redfern, Black Rose,more f... - 21/06/2010, 17:05 (GMT)

ha ha superb

sarcasm is awesome though

disclaimer, i apologise in advance for calling anyone sarcastic and trying to convert them to sarcasmism.

# Posted by Ian - Rocking Horse - 21/06/2010, 17:05 (GMT)

It's impossible to say there is no one I would not work with because I haven't met most. The ones I have met are nice people though I have to say

# Posted by Rob Redfern, Black Rose,more f... - 21/06/2010, 17:06 (GMT)

steady there Ian youre being too nice

# Posted by Ian - Rocking Horse - 21/06/2010, 17:10 (GMT)

I'm always nice Rob, and your one of the very few people on here that has seen me in person so you can vouch for that lol

# Posted by ST Photography - VIVA LA COMMU... - 21/06/2010, 17:23 (GMT)

It's not impossible. I said it. I will work with ANYONE from NWB. Including those I have not met, such is my faith in the community.

Trouble is I'm too fekkin busy!!

# Posted by Willow (of somebig™Fish) (Reti... - 21/06/2010, 17:23 (GMT)

Redfern, Williamson, Leigh, Harrison, Dyson, Beveridge, Martin, Tregear, Dixon, Murray, Nortley, Cottam, Casement, Grove - one step forward please ..........

# Posted by Rob Redfern, Black Rose,more f... - 21/06/2010, 17:27 (GMT)

sounds like a grammar school register!!

"wheres Redfern today?, truant again?!"

"no hes down the clinic again sir"

# Posted by Alyerpal - 21/06/2010, 17:27 (GMT)

Contrary to what other people might think, all my reviews of bands have been honest and to the point - I have not seen a bad band off NWB yet, nor have I met any people I wouldn't be happy to jam with.
I've already achieved one of my 'before I die' moments - sharing a stage with the legend that is Willow and the mighty Mick from Bad horsie and Roj (who wasn't our bass player then).
Would love to jam with Mr Roberto whatever your monicker is at the moment Redfern,and Graham Meerkat. Have also depped for The Kicks and Mr Gordon Dyehouse(stresshead, but a great guy and superb player) and his band. Kev (Metalleeka) is a top bloke also aswell.
Oh shit, everybody!

try roland I believe he is pretty good ;-)

# Posted by 45's - 21/06/2010, 18:21 (GMT)

Probably ALL of the bands I've seen off this site ! but one of many examples would be -

Willow - KEYS
Graham - VOX - Meerkat
BH Mick - GEETAR
Rich 5th - BASS

Don't know what we would sound like but we would have one hell of a laugh !

# Posted by The Subliminals - 21/06/2010, 18:44 (GMT)

i'd play with Rick from the 45's - diamond fella

Chris from Ride On - cept we both play bass, so that wouldn't work

anyone really

i'd even play with Ben Murray again, cos I think he's a great musician... would need to sort out one or two things tho

Aidan from whatever

and Willow of course!!! :)

cheers!

Steve Dixon

@ Rik sounds a proper giggle to me mate ..bring it on LOL!

# Posted by Mark bassist in Piggery Bandan... - 21/06/2010, 21:33 (GMT)

All the usual suspects for me, and Mr Grooverman .... was a phonecall away at one time... missed opportunities and all that i guess, but that missed opportunity led to greased chicken nugget conservative club in workington playing crowded house, proclaimers and the laas to pensioners who looked like they didnt even have there hearing aids switched on!!! Damn Daz why didnt it happen it has left me scarred!!!

# Posted by Wangies - 21/06/2010, 21:48 (GMT)

Willow

# Posted by Anthony (Wrong Turn) - 07/07/2010, 20:37 (GMT)

Hmmm... Toughy...

I would probably work with:

Everyone from Riff Raff

Everyone from Fourth Legacy

Everyone from Metalleeka (Yes, Mr. Redfern, that does include you)

Everyone from Night Train

I've already been up and played guitar with the lovely people from Hallowed, and I do it again, and again...

I'd gladly work with the Dean Casement trio any day of the week.

Finally, I'd gladly work with the guitarist and drummer of Vera Cruz.
