  1. It's my Gibson Custom Shop ES 335 bass in vintage faded cherry. Blue
  2. Vintage car show gig on Saturday. Blue
  3. She's Right I'm Left Acoustic gig tonight at Revere's in Delafield . Classy place and high end clientle. Blue
  4. Not an easy song to sing. I like this and I'm not sure I would call it a mistake. Blue
  5. I've been looking at the Ampeg DI Pre Amp, $399.00. I guess you have to have really good monitors or IEM for it to be effective. Blue
  6. I know there are folks in the audience that don't know that one of us up there is playing bass.Ever had someone ask you how long you've been playing guitar? Lol😂 Blue
  7. Yeah, I'm not always aware of mistakes made by my bandmates. I'm well aware of mine, wrong notes, getting lost in a song when you can't hear. I try not to make the same mistake twice. Blue
  8. Pedals can be a pain, I get that. They don't always integrate with other pedals or PA systems. Ever had a sound guy give you the " stink eye " during a sound check and ask you if you have any pedals engaged. I don't use most of my pedals. And you can run into problems if your playing a gig in a venue that has electrical wiring from the 1940s. However, I'm always going to use a little chorus. Blue
  9. Looks like a huge gig. 👍 Blue
  10. Nice shot ! Blue
  11. Was it just the one guy that fell or was everyone there shined up ? Lol 😂😂 Blue
  12. We've been using the RCF PA for a few years. Small and powerful . Blue
  13. Nice video clip Dave. Daryl
  14. Nice ! And a great charity to raise money for. Blue
  15. Lovely G & L. G& Ls with the active pre amp are one of the best kept secrets out there. I used my 1993 G& L ASAT last night too. Blue
  16. " More Than Our Usual Fee " That's the best kind of fee to get. Lol 😂 Blue
  17. We played a wedding tonight as a favor. We're not a wedding band. We had enough standards and songs people could dance to to get by. We were sounding good tonight. We have new lighting. Blue
  18. Everyone should be careful with gigging on uncovered stages on hot summer days. We had this challenge last weekend at a 10 band 2 stage festival. We were lucky, our slot was only 40 minutes, and that was cut by 10 minutes when the " powers that be" announced the winning raffle numbers . Blue
  19. That is unfortunate and also leads us to another discussion. How transparent is your band leader. How much of the behind the scenes and business stuff shared with us ? I just found out tonight we just purchased $1,000.00 in t shirt inventory. Blue

  21. 25 people seems like " Woodstock " compared to the crowd of 6 we played to last weekend. Lol Blue
  22. Was this singer the band leader ? Blue
  23. My band has some kind of questionable relationship with a promoter. We only get offered the low end gigs Like I said there's some sort of history there that pre dates me entering the band. 15 years is a long time to hold a grudge. Blue
  24. Hi Chris, In my neck of the woods the caliber of the musianship of a band means nothing when it comes to playing high profile large stage gigs. The awful band with a high level contact always gets the gig over the excellent band with no contact. Blue
