About me:
Hey All. I'm Rich, bassist for ThreeMileIsland.

A bit about myself... where to start? Right - I love music - live for it. I've been playing bass for half my life now (but hey - you can't count the first few years right?) and I'm entirely self taught. I've been privileged to have been part of some great bands.

Just to name a few (in no particular order!) Black Milk (rock), Soapbar (funk), Freasonal Ceasar (rock/funk/metal/5 part vocal harmony/en vogue!), Rocket Dog (5/6 Albums as session bassist), Fat By Accident (punk), Tripswitch (rock/metal), My Deaf Audio (rock/metal) and currently ThreeMileIsland (the heaviest yet... and the new stuff just keeps getting heavier!!)
In each band i've been fortunate to work with some awesome musicians (some unfortunately no longer with us) but each and every one has taught me something.

I also (occasionally - and for purely selfish reasons) book and promote Solo Bass shows - Michael Manring, Steve Lawson, John Lester......
This has led me to meet some of the people who've influenced me the most - and I'm now lucky enough to be able to call them friends.

My main bass is a custom 7 String (made by Dave Pushic in North Carolina - www.dpcustom.com -) every time I've bought a new bass, I've added an extra string (ok I'm a tart!) There are some pictures of the construction process in my blog - go check em out.

Who I'd like to meet:
Anyone and everyone who has an interest in bass.... and who wants to put my band on!!!

DEVIANT Rock Club - Brighton's #1 Rock Club!





Jul 10 2008 12:20 PM

THIS FRIDAY, DEVIANT GOES TO HELL! This is a night not to be missed!

Dress to impress and join us this Friday the 11th July as Deviant pays homage to the fiery abode of misery and torment. On entry, all those who demand “Open the gates of Hell” will receive a free Satanic Shot to begin their night of debauchery. For those that dare we will have a Satanic face painter to make you look the part and really set the scene.

As the night heats up you’ll be swept into the depths of Hell for a night you won’t soon forget.

We know you naughty beings like your alcohol, so we’ve devised some fiendish drinking games that definitely aren’t for the weak! Don’t let your sinful greed get the better of you though, you have a wickedly long night ahead of you yet.

We have the Hellish delight of entertainment from divine temptress and fire-breathing extraordinaire, Flame, who will indulge your wicked senses with a show of fire and flesh. Let her take you out of this world and into another, sinfully pleasing you with her erotic and fiery performance.

And as if all that wasn’t enough, we’ve also lowered the entry fee! For one night only entry will be just £3 for the entire night! And we’re staying open till the sinfully late hour of 5am, so that you can stumble out of our replication of Hell into the light of dawn. With all of these Devilish delights, we just hope you survive until then...
