If I had wandered in with a request to play Sarah Brightman, ......... would you ?

Hi Mick,

It depends what you wanted me to 'play' her at, old chap. I might lose out at karaoke, but if it was arm-wrestling I may be in with a chance

Sarah of course is a legend, but then so are you. Incidentally, I can recommend an excellent gentleman's outfitters if you still have a penchant for those high-waister Farah slacks, and he's an excellent barber, too, as it happens. I'm not sure what style of barnet you're sporting these days, old boy, but Billee B (that's his name) will have you sheered, shorted and shnorkled in no time...

Nice to hear from you again, btw!

Marco.

The Quads were good but they sounded really congested probably because he had them close the the side walls of an alcove. If they where in the middle of the large bay they probably would have been a lot better but possible they would have lost a little bass.

Despite this they were one of the few systems that I did like. I'm kind of in two minds over some rooms. It was the effort of the people who brought there kit to demonstrate that made the day. It obviously took time and cost money for people to do it. However some setups I just didn't like as to my ears they were terrible. Its IMO anyway so I suppose its no more or less valid than someone who may of liked what they heard.

Mick,

Sarah Brightman would have been a breath of fresh air, especially as we were a bit lacking in female vocalists in our repertoire. I did play some KD Lang though.

Mikey's got quite a high-pitched voice, especially in his new tight leather pants, so we'll get him to sing a wee song next time to cover the female vocalist vacancy

That would be the perfect way to die.

On a more serious note, I did not attend the show because I thought the sounds would be crap just like the normal trade shows.

This seems to have been the exception and most kit was set up by "amatuers" and despite the odds, sounded bloody good.

Perhaps the amatuers should give some of the professionals a lesson on how to run a show.

Regards

Mick

That's absolutely true, Mick, and one of the points I intend to make later in my summary.

Marco.

I look forward to seeing the summary. Did you get out & about much or were you room minding most of the day?

I managed to see and hear nearly everything I think. Might have missed a few top floor rooms over in the main house judging by the photo's I've seen.
