DAY OF HATS:
Floods of phone calls & meetings interrupt the flow
of rehearsals but we get there. Where it is we get
is somewhere different to where I thought it would be
but the view is just as sweet. Trying out new amps
for overseas, Fender Blues Juniors to replace my
Fender Musicmaster Bass combos. The Juniors ring
like bells, a little bright for me, but with some
tweaking & the calm voice of Gaz we achieve a
workable sound. The Musicmasters make my Telecasters
sound wiry & woody the way I like them, but these
new combos are a good compromise. May talk to Fender
about building valve amps with only a volume & tone,
I don’t like so much stuff on my amps.
At sunset we gather outside in the rain to watch
a giant pink crocodile go sailing through the sky.
There’s a thread running through our time together,
something about this band looking up at the stars.
Snatching an escape to London to see brother
John Warwicker, up from Oz on a whirlwind to talk
at D&AD. Coffee in Soho with a mate, both out on
parole for good behaviour.
(K)

nice to see that Fender is 2-upping Nigel Tufnel again and going to 12 on their volume controls.
I couldnt help but notice that the amp actually goes past 11!
