  1. Thanks Stub, It's one of our big numbers. Lol When we can't collectively find the groove it doesn't work. Daryl
  2. Thanks Stub. Herea link to us performing Ohio last year.
  3. Wasn't feeling the gig. I made the mistake of not eating anything before the gig. This was a multi band gig. We played from 5:00-6:00. Well attended ticketed event , $35.00. Part of the problem was the room . Huge room on the marina ( Lake Michigan)with extremely high ceiling and lots of glass. Great lighting with smoke but the stage sound was not good. The amp provided was SWR cabs a 15" and a 4 10s. I stood right in front of the rig and couldn't hear a thing. Not much coming from my monitor either. Our band leader/ front person stayed engaged and positive with the crowd. Daryl
  4. Nice job Dave. Great crowd and great looking venue. You guys sound very tight in the video. I listened to both clips with earbuds. Daryl
  5. I know ,she was using one of those telephone cord leads we use to use back in the 60s. She used 2 Telecasters and a Les Paul last night. Daryl
  6. I think I was merely standing there. No instrument. Daryl
  7. Thanks, and I don't look a day over 70. Lol Daryl
  8. Stub Mandrel said it for me. Lol "Probably it's urea-formaldehyde glue which can break down if kept damp and give off fumes (including ammonia) that smell like wee" Daryl
  9. The only fool proof method might be buying a new case. My case for my 2000 MIJ Fender P stinks. It's the old glue that causes the stench. I won't tell you what it smells like. Lol Daryl
  10. I heard an AI funk version of The Beatles " Help " . Daryl
  11. She canceled last year at The Bend. We we're contracted to open for her. Daryl
  12. I'm looking forward to this Saturday. I'll get a chance to hang out with a bunch of our local musicians. I'm glad we're going on first. It's a beautiful room on the marina in Port Washington. Daryl
  13. Lol, Low level fame is about the only fame I'm ever going to get. Daryl
  14. Friday night. Our small 300 seat historic theatre, The Bend. A 5 minute drive for me. British recording artist Joanne Shaw Taylor. Front row seat. Daryl
  15. Dave, I probably should have said bad performances. We're very selective about what gigs we take and have no problem saying " no ". Daryl
  16. 71, the good gigs always give me a burst of enthusiasm, excitement, youthfulness and energy. The bad gigs make me wonder why I'm still gigging. Daryl
  17. I'm retired/ pensioner. I probably won't have any contact or connection with people until my gig this Saturday. Daryl
  18. Looks fantastic! Daryl
  19. Good gig. Second set wasn't so great. BL called songs we haven't played in years.No complaints and I was home by 7:30. Daryl
  20. When I first started doing the 3 piece acoustic it was. I've been doing the acoustic gigs for atleast 5 years now. I'm use to it Dave. Overall the acoustic gigs are a blessing. Easy hours, fast set and tear down. I'll be home by 8:30. I'll get the full Maple Road band experience next weekend. Daryl Daryl
  21. We doing our three peice acoustic offering back at the Ziegler Winery tomorrow. Always a pleasure to play there. They have a large "built in" engaged high-end clientle, I don't have to worry about the crowd. We're playing from 3:00-6:00. Our role is to provide background music however a lot of the folks are paying more attention to us than their wine. Daryl
  22. Sounds like us at State Fair. They want to get off and we want to get on. I'm slow at getting set up. Daryl
