Dave, We're basically background music at The Harley Motor as well. However, we're set up in front of they're large horse shoe shaped bar and I know we draw more interest from the punters than most bands that play there.
Daryl
Nice!
Here's how our rehearsals work for new material. Last night at The Ziegler Winery during the 2nd set. The band leader just goes into Allman Brother's
"Midnight Rambler". We've never played it before. We're expected to follow her. Lol
Daryl
Stub,
The Harley Motor can be hit or miss. If there's a big event in Milwaukee there's usually a nice crowd. The Motor and The Harley Museum is mainly for tourists.
Daryl
Good gig.
The place was empty when we were setting up, however by 5:30 we had more than a respectable size crowd.
I was happy with my playing tonight.
Tomorrow night we're back at The Harley Motor.

I think it's why many ( not all ) guys my age wear slip ons or the footwear where you have a velcro closure.
I wonder if I'm pissing off punters. Are they offended because an old guy can't tie up his shoes? Lol
71 wearing Van's. Who do I think I'm fooling? Lol

Dave,
The marina is nice, however I like those steps up to the stage.
Even 10 years ago,I didn't care about stuff like steps. But now when I get to a gig and I notice there's no steps, in my advanced years I'm like "Come on" guys
"Really ? ". Is that an unreasonable attitude for me and some of the pensioners here that have been out there gigging for 50 years? Lol
Daryl
Very good acoustic gig. I was very happy with my performance. Respectful size crowd considering the room is huge and usually used for wedding receptions.
I've put the G&L ASAT away for a while
I'm playing my 2000 MIJ Fender P.
I've attached a few pics.
