Final rehearsal last night for the folk and cider festival gig on Saturday night. Ran through the full one hour set without major issues, plus tea and biscuits afterwards.
Apart from playing through the songs, it gave me a last opportunity to sort out a few issues before the gig, including setting the volume balances between the two Uke basses I'm going to be using. With one having the poly strings and the other has phosphor bronze, there's a slight difference between the two, so for ease of switching mid-set, just had to back the PB strung Uke back a little to match the poly strung one (couple of slower songs mid-set that sound lots better with a more upright bass type sound).
Looking forward to the gig now, on at 8pm for an hour, so a fair amount of the cider should have been consumed by the crowd by then.
Total gear load in for me will be the two ukes in a Fusion double Uke case, small pedalboard and my new DB Hype 8 in a small holdall - one trip to and from the car! 👍
