Saturday evening after Day 1 of the Bass Show, I bumped into Doug Wimbish - Legendary Bassist for one of the first All Black Rock Soul groups Living Colour and formidable session bassist behind many artists like Seal, Sting and producers like Trevor Horn.

Catching up with Gary Willis at Band on the Wall in Manchester at the Tribal Tech Gig. Gary is one of the World's great Bassists and I have learnt a great deal from just one lesson with him. Look closely and I'm clutching the latest Tribal Tech album 'X' signed by the band of course! :)
