  1. We're basically a 70s style rock blues band with a female front playing lead guitar. My point, we draw a baby boomer crowd. I've seen folks in their 20s simply walk out on us. Blue
  2. Successful gig. 1. Good stage volume and sound. 2. Up scale lighting and sound 3. My playing and the bands performance is hot and spot on 4. A happy respectful size engaged crowd 5. An above average pay day Blue
  3. You know, I'm 70 and single and I know it doesn't happen often but there are a few young ladies out there that like old guys. Not long ago I had a date with a very attractive 35 year old lady. Later I found out the only reason she went out with me was because she had a fascination with death. 😆 Blue
  4. Mykes, accepting a gig that we're unsuitable for is always a nightmare. Of course we're more selective regarding where we will play now. However, I have memories of bar gigs where the clientle had absolutely no interest in live music of any kind. Blue
  5. I don't quite understand how some of you have gigs within walking distance. That's impossible over here. Matter of fact when I see bass player wanted ads they'll state " must have reliable transportation " as a requirement. Blue
  6. Absolutely no public transportation in my neck of the woods. Blue
  7. That's really nice, especially at 65. Blue
  8. How old are you guys that are walking to gigs ? Blue
  9. I have to admit. I'm super spoiled at this point in time. A nice van picks me up at my door step. We don't have rehearsals. I wish we did. I won't even bring the subject up. Blue
  10. Strawberry Fest is a huge awesome annual event, thousands of attendees. We were at Weislers Restaurant who provided an upscale tent. We had a very respectful size crowd. The band was on fire though I didn't think much of how I played. 😢 Overall a good gig with a nice pay day. Blue
  11. I have to start preparing physically and mentally on Monday for a Saturday gig. Lol Seriously everybody doing outside summer shows, STAY HYDRATED! The band should have a cooler near the stage stocked with cold bottled water. Blue
  12. Beautiful promo poster ! Blue
  13. Nice gig, I'm a GK guy. The boost and woofer knobs are super responsive. Blue
  14. When I was a young guy fans didn't mean that much to me. At 70 years old fans and covered stages for outside summer gigs are now a " must have" requirement. Looks like a great fan. 👍 Blue
  15. Excellent 👍 Blue
  16. Nice set up.👍 Blue
  17. I keep the treble and bass boost switches in the middle position. Very clean and transparent. Blue
  18. Thanks It's a nice bass Dave. It's the active pre amp I'm hooked on. Daryl
  19. My primary, 1993 USA G&L ASAT bass. Blue
  20. Playing a 3-5 today. Outside, it's going to be 90°. Blue
  21. I struggle with similar issues. When things don't click for some reason. Blue
  22. It was my Facebook post I was concerned about. 20 friends "liked" the post for my Maple Road gig this Saturday and nothing for the video post. Blue
  23. Thanks Leroy There will a color version of the video this Monday. Maybe I'll be a little more visible in color. Lol Blue
  24. I'm not sure. Blue
  25. Thanks Leroy.👍 Blue
