d8b Forum

Well, I will still being doing music with my trusty d8b, even though I am looking at a future SSL board, a new Mac PC and a Genelec ATMOS upgrade...we can all dream right

Happy New Year everyone and best to you and your family in 2023.

Not sure but most likely throwing in the towel on the music business and now that the console that was donated to the Music Association (that I am a voluntary member of), has proven to be a complete dud, I will probably pack up my trusty old d8b and donate it to the Association.

I will look back on my 60+ years in the business and bask in the memory that I have worked with and for some of the most famous artists in the world (both good and bad --- and having a double barreld shot gun drawn on me in the studio --- but that is another story !!!), as well as opening, staffing and running one of the most famous live venues in the world for it first 16 yrs.

I might even spend my spare time thinking about writing a book --- but concerned that I might tell the truth and get sued !!!!

Irrespective of what I do, I will always be floating somewhere around this forum.

Hope you all have a really great and fruitfull 2023 and try to stay COVID safe/free.

Phil,

Many (if not most) are--- and give me a few years and I probably will be also !!!!!

The are two main problems/reasons why I haven't done anything, one is simply the motovation to get started on it and the other is trying to remember everything (especially dates) as I have never been the type to keep a diary, ask for autographs or in the case of live events ask for a copy of the programme. I have simply gone about doing the job I had to do and to do it to the best of my ability with the limitatioms of ARTIST, equipment available/supplied and location.
