Hi All

If anyone's near Stockport next Weds 21st you'll be most welcome at our first gig as "DEAD FINKS" at the Bakers Vaults ( Free Entry ) for some low down dirty blues. only 3 slide tunes tho
You shook me
It hurts me too
Policeman Blues - original tune



Will also be the first outing for my new Martamp jtm45 clone amp. Can't wait

I live in Stockport, Hazel grove to be precise and I'll be there.

Hey, nice one 5slide, we appreciate the support
If you fancy a chat, I'll be the talentless one playin guitar

[Michael Messer]

Have fun in Stockport Dead Finks!

It's a 400 mile round trip for me, otherwise I'd be there too.

Shine On
Michael.

Cheers for that Michael, much appreciated.
To be honest, there would probably be no slide tunes at all without this forum and a weekend in Pocklington ( plus Slidefest ) so Stockport you have MM to blame for the assault on your ears tomorrow

i almost forgot the MM slide video. The only "original" slide tune is one we cobbled together from a section of the mississippi one chord groove

I will try and remember all the things I should be doin, like damping, perfect vibrato etc but will probably forget it all and just go for it

As you say - HAVE FUN
Cheers
Rob

Hey no poblem. I'm looking forward to hearing you play and will come and say hello

[5slide]

Well I certainly wouldn't say you were talentless

I really enjoyed the gig, my kind of blues. Sorry I didn't manage to say hi, we had to leave half way through the last song of the 1st set as our baby sitter had to go at 11:00.

I was really gutted that I had to leave, I especially wanted to hear 'it hurt me too' it's one of my favourite tracks.

I thought your singer was great too and the fact that she plays harp was an unexpected bonus! I loved your version of the 'thrill is gone' and policeman blues was great too.

Can you keep us updated with your future gigs, especially around the manchester/stockport area and next time I'll make sure I can stay until the end! ;D

Hi 5Slide,
Thanks for the very kind words and for taking the time to come and see us play. I'll pass your messages onto Angie too.She's not been playin too long and has learnt from youtube lessons so will be most pleased that you enjoyed it I will of course let you know of any gigs we get in the area and look forward to meeting up.
If you know of any pubs etc in Stockport / Hazel Grove etc that have bands on let me know so we can try and get some more gigs

Thanks again

Rob

Hi there, just wanted to reiterate what Rob said and thank you 5 slide for your kind feed back. I'm glad I wasn't aware you were coming as my nerves would have suffered even more! I am made up you enjoyed it, really means a lot that you took time to come and see us, the crowd on the whole were wonderful, such a great night. Hope to meet you at the next one!
Kind regards,
Angie~

Hey no problem, like I said I really enjoyed it.

Angie - if you were nervous it didn't show, your harp playing was great and fitted in really well with the rest of the band, especially since you've not been playing long!

If I hear of any more venues around here that you guys could play at I'll let you know.

Look forward to meeting you both soon,

Ben
