This year, I haven't put out any 'official' music. No album, no EP - nothing. End of last year was the Lawson/Dodds/Wood album, which I'm hugely proud of. But I have been documenting some of my experi ... Read More on Steve Recommends... http://post.ly/Ctcn

ha! I'll save that for my four string bass, Ben - the 6 really isn't set up for it... maybe I should try a super light set of strings on it :)

I do that quite a lot, especially on ambient gigs. Once did a gig at the top of the Gherkin (I think it was the first proper live gig up there) with Theo Travis, as a duo, and there were NO monitors at all. no speakers near us, so we were playing in the corner, then wandering around to see if it sounded OK :) Was a lot of fun, if a little weird ;)
