Simple Minds White Hot Day Bridlington 2015

Simple Minds performing an instrumental version of "White Hot Day" live at The Spa in Bridlington, 4th April 2015. Filmed by myself. Big Music Tour + Greatest Hits.
Please note: Due to my location in the crowd, it was not practical to point the camera anywhere other than at Ged Grimes (bass).

In time. only time. sleep for me in time. This is theme song for my time cult. Seriously.

[@toptonychick]

One of their best songs!

[@codge2112]

Saw them at Leicester on Tuesday they were awesome there as well probably the best I've ever seen them Kerr's energy is amazing.

I've been waiting to hear this live for nearly 30 years and speculatively requested it for the Liverpool gig only for them to play it a few days later! I don't get the whole demo version thing live though as per BOBTs and SYLTM on the last tour. Full band with Jim singing and Mel drumming next time as it demands more gusto to make it truly fly. Great to hear it back in some form for now though!

Classis tune

[@EIWatson]

I was there too.

[@richardpowell3364]

And I was there too - on front row about a foot away from Jim - awesome!!!

[@toptonychick]

I would have been too, if it wasn't for a flat tyre! lol!

[@richardpowell3364]

toptonychick sorry to hear that. To be honest, I don't think it wd hv mattered that much where I was in the room!

[@621pw]

Better the band rename this "Bass Line" methinks! Nice to hear a longstanding Simple Minds tradition - a rare instrumental - in the setlist!

[@Katch8899]

Hey guys, with all due respect, Ged is just playing a stand up electric bass, like Sting used to...it's not a chapman stick..that has 12 strings..I think! Bless.

[@robyg70]

What on earth is Ged playing? This reminds me of a song......

[@toptonychick]

I think its just called an "Upright electric bass". I googled "bass instrument images" and found out that way. I might be wrong..................Cheers Rob!

[@robyg70]

toptonychick Chapman Stick Bass

[@toptonychick]

robyg70 Yeah. Someone said that a few days ago. I googled "chapman stick" and it showed nothing. Anyway, it looks pretty cool!!

[@robyg70]

toptonychick I googled and found a bunch of images.

[@toptonychick]

robyg70 I found nothing, Rob. Probably due to just putting "chapman stick" only! So you did better then me! Many thanks!
