well, just got back home. simply had a great gig as a dep. italian oldies -definately not my usual style- with an italian singer/songwriter/guitarist and band in an high class italian restaurant as sideact during a 5-course-meal and then showact at the after meal party.
top food, top wines (just enjoing a fantastic 2010 Prunotto from Piemont).
we had a short rehearsal at 12am after the last gig in august 2013. different drummer and saxophone player, both top notch.
improvised a lot during the meal and nailed the songs very well to get the crowd dancing during the "party-set". played my cheap '81 eko acoustic fretless through my l.r. baggs para d.i. into my acoustic image focus sa through my SAD 1/12H cab. sounded great outside, but as usual just ok on stage if you have no monitoring and the pa is only for vocals, acoustic guitar, sax and cajon. but I did the job well, got paid and enjoy myself right now!
life can be good! Cheers!
