RICE & PEAS OCTOBER

My 2p ...

First of all respect to AV for a fine session ... good attendance and good vibes in the place.

Eastman - well that stack ..... woooargh - proper retro . Playing well low, but but no way enough pressure for that venue. Have a notion that it would sound nice in a more typical-sized venue like night club etc. ...... if you can get those wardrobe-style 2x18s through the feckin door
Better watch out for losing pets and small children in them reflex ports too

Trojan - dunno what was going on there ..... were those 21s actually playing ? Didn't sound like it most of the time.

Showcase - was a bit harsh at times - but I was hearing some good bass pressure at times from those Tony Wilkes 18" TH .... apparently whole setup was pretty experimental. Well thats what those sessions are for !!

Diamond GBF - probably best all rounder.

All sounds playing quality tunes, so yeah  - good session.

Rule apply?

To the promoter, well done, very nice session, good to see people coming out & taking in the soundsystems, also good food aswell  Diamonds sounded well, good tunes from all the soundsystems.....

True.

However, people used to post many pics and give open honest reviews, but some soundman caught feelings and made noise. So it mostly stopped.

Also, is one thing to give personal opinion, as many have above.

But when it is presented as a critical review, from suggested position of accomplishment, as Waxhead's reviews are, that means when he is playing out, his set and result needs to be AAA, an example of how it should be done.

Unfortunately the best bass end Waxhead brings out, has now had technicals 3/3 times.

Not forgetting, other systems on same power supply as waxhead, on all these occasions managed to sound very good, with only 4x 18" scoops ?
