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

Cool, is that an RCF sub and main on the far left ? We use RCF for our acoustic gigs. Daryl

The Harley Motor gig was fantastic. I was extremely happy with my playing and performance. We were clicking on all 6 cylinders Daryl

Hi Dave, Bass pre-amp straight into the PA. Works well for acoustic gigs. 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

Thanks Pete, It's a nice place located in the middle of nowhere . Great staff and "well heeled" clientle. 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

No in ears. We're still using stage monitors Dave. That's my condo association in the van pic. 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. Daryl

We have a 5-8 acoustic gig tomorrow night at The Ziegler Winery. 1 hour commute. Classy place. Daryl

Great pics. You guys look great Daryl

I don't like the way Beatle Ringo has those Cons laced up. Lol

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 Daryl

Dave, I can't bend over that far. Lol Daryl

Dang! Love the red Ric with your black outfit. Daryl

I'm a Van's guy. Lol Daryl

Wow! Gigs like this are far and few inbween for me. Love it. Daryl

It sounds like it was a good gig Dave. I've done 2 birthdays this year. Agreed they can be hit or miss. You had a hit. Daryl

It sounds like your band is doing great. Daryl

That schedule is something to " flex" about. That's a nice Summer. Daryl

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. Daryl

Hi Dave, Thanks, that's all good stuff. When I make mistakes I talk about it, own up to it and apologize. Daryl

That's a nice Summer. Daryl

We're ideal weather wise for summer festivals. However it depends on how they're organised. Established festivals where you have upscale sound ,lighting and staging can be nice. Daryl
