Does anyone know if care home rules have changed? I can't seem to find them mentioned anywhere.

Looking for some amp advice if anyone can help.
Basically I've started playing in a band, we've not actually played yet due to the current situation. But we're getting to the point we could do soon.
Im playing a nice tanglewood acoustic and I need to upgrade my amp, or I won't be heard. Above some of the 100w amps the rest have. I've currently got a small laney amp. Which tbh I've not used much as before I was mainly just playing myself or jamming with a mate.
So im looking to get an amp where my acoustic will still retain as much of the tone as I can. While being able to get a bit of distortion with my pedal for parts.
Its been a while since I've done any sort of gigging, 20 years since I was 20. So I'm not experienced in amps.
Should I be looking for an acoustic amp, like I have but bigger.
Or be buying a standard amp more aimed at electric guitars. But one with an acoustic setting.
Like I was looking at a boss katana 100, which has an acoustic setting. But worried it may sound a bit naff. Acoustic amps with a decent volume level are pricey.
Anyone got any advice?
I play in a band and one of the guys plays an acoustic. He only ever goes through the house PA - never an amp.

Gutted about this news. I've seen him several times and was always exemplary. True musical pioneer and opened me up to diversity and a world of superb music.

I've got a couple of books by Dan Toombs "the curry guy" all based in British Indian Restaurant dishes, he makes a base gravy and takes it from there, all the ones I tried were terrific. books are relatively cheap
One thing I did discover was the quality and freshness of spices made a hell of a difference in the finished dish, when living in Glasgow it was easy to replenish supplies but after we moved to the sticks I used old spices from the cupboard and the curry was shit
That misty boy looks like oftwI have The Curry Guy books and the Misty Ricardo ones. Both are good but I like The Curry Guy books better. I cook from them two or three times a week.
Usually buy spices online in larger quantities. That would be a waste of time if you weren't using them often though. Either that or Asian supermarkets but I haven't been in one for months though.

My nephew has had, and has since recovered from, the virus. He put some information on his experiences with it on Twitter.

Jake Bugg in Edinburgh last night was certainly the liveliest I've seen the Usher Hall.

The good thing about photos is you don't get the stench of pish.
I worked for the company that built the new bridge at the time and the council specifically requested the new bridge to be open to the elements to deter beggars, buskers, etc.

Anyone seen Better Than Us? It's a Russian drama and, having just watched the first episode, it looks really good.
I watched it all. Really enjoyed it.

A revival of this thread for shameless self-promotion. This is my band. We are currently working on an album, which is coming along really well, but these are our previous releases (also available on all various streaming platforms).
Great fun.

Have seen The Skints live a couple of times. Well worth watching.
Also, this guy (who I haven't seen live) has some really good reggae from Ethiopia...

I have a Behringher Overdrive pedal. Similar sort of thing - the casing is plastic. I have used it loads of times, including gigs, and it works fine. Mostly I play pretty clean stuff though. I guess if I was in a metal band it might not give me enough.

I was in the audience last night at QT. Interesting how they do it. The programme is pretty much unedited. As far as I can see there was only one audience comment that didn't make the final programme and that was because the woman fell apart and was just rambling a load of nonsense, not because she was saying anything controversial. Also, we hadn't really started at all until about half 8 but they were in no hurry.
Usual Edinburgh mix - Scottish, English, Financial Services types, students, transvestites.
I like Billy Bragg but he's coming from an English perspective and banging a drum for a Labour revival which was met with a mixed response. Keith Brown was fairly standard but went down well. Annabel Goldie doesn't like the Lords but is happy to be in it! The journalist woman went down reasonably well despite being very capitalist and saying the odd thing that she knew wouldn't be well received and Kez who is like your mate's wee sister being in charge of the Labour party. She seems like a nice enough woman but how she's got to where she is is a complete mystery to me. Scottish Labour must be in a very bad way if she's the best they've got.
Oh and David Dimbelby, much to my surprise is quite a funny man.
Interesting experience if anyone is thinking about trying it.
