I got a Boss IR-2 Amp & Cabinet pedal! Thanks Mum, see you for lunch later.

This thing sounds great. I'm going to try it into the return on my Marshall Origin 50 next, with cab sim disabled if I can. Lots of fun things to experiment with. Seems very noisy (in the right way) from first use.

Right, I'm off to brush up on my Slade songs.

I don't think I'll be getting any music gear, but I bought my daughter's boyfriend The Go! Team's pedal - Thunder, Lightning, Strike - which seemed appropriate given the year she/he/we have had music wise.

Happy Christmas!

Probably salmonella, botulism, or something like that.

(Present to myself)

So far, I've got a stinking cold that's ruining my sinuses.

I'm hoping for some good albums though.

Just a Bull Terrier calendar as usual.

My eldest son and my Grandsons are round for lunch later.  Couldn't be happier.

Possibly he’s eastern/Northern European? For them Christmas Eve is *the* day. Presents, meal, party, the lot, as soon as the sun goes down and the first star appears. Christmas Day only exists to give you a statutory day to sleep off the hangover.

Fender Mustang micro plus headphone amp and a bottle of malt whisky .... delighted with my lot and with my older son and his family joining us for the day/dinner, it'll be spot on!
It’s our first Christmas since we finished the house refurb - so have my old band mates and their daughters (who are hilarious) staying.

Cue a lot of music and reminiscing - marvellous.

Oh, and I got a jumper too !
T-bone ribbon mic, Labella strings, & Vic Firth rubber tip drumsticks for my electronic kit (I think this might be a hint about something?)

Also nabbed a pair of humbucker-size Mojo Dynas on ebay this morning!

I got fiddle toys (metal ones so they're business-appropriate), Montezumas chocolate, and Lego - the Dune ornithopter, the Technic Mars Exploration thing, and the Technic Earth And Moon set.

And a new duvet cover and fleecy blanket, both Lego City Space theme,  because I'm a grown-up and should have matching bedding. 

A fine haul.

Neumann MA1 measurement mic so that I can tune my KH80 monitors to my room.  I shall look forward to setting things up tomorrow.

My wife bought me a Chinese green vintage overdrive and it sounds better than the actual tube screamer I had 


A T shirt to match my bass :-) 
Some crampons and slippers (not to be worn together :o ) and some other nice bits and bobs.

Is a 3/4 double bass a 1.5 bass?

Some Murphy Lab branded Duct Tape ©️ would be needed to restrain him I reckon.
