  12. I'm still here guys; The busiest gigging summer of my life and I get hit with health issues. I haven't had to cancel any shows yet The acoustic division of Maple Road is keeping us a float. We had to outdoor gigs on June 4th and June 5th. Nice weather and really cool crowds. This Thursday we have a Festival Gig in the afternoon and a Theatre gig Thursday night. We have moved away from the traditional 4 hour US bar gigs. To be honest I think it's a thing of the past. I hope the UK will open up a little more when it's save. I've lost 3 close friends to Covid. Stay in touch. Blue
  13. Yeah, big stage/ venue gigs are more about the PA than your rig. As long as your using any type of pro level rig your ok. I play big gigs with 2 10 GK cab and a GK head Blue

    Band PA

    Dave, it's why I always say bands are better with fantastic people as opposed to fantastic singers and players. I know a very talented female bass player / lead vocalist however she never fits in with any band she joins. She doesn't understand a band is about compromise and team effort. Daryl

    Band PA

    I haven't read all the comments. I suggest you invest in a wi fi based PA for the whole band instead of just the lead vocals. Even for small bar and pub gigs the band will sound better with everyone mixed through the same PA. Blue
  18. Thanks EMG Blue
  19. Thanks Nail Soup, Initially I wasn't a part of the acoustic division of Maple Road. I joined about a year ago. It's fun and less work than the full Maple Road band and it pays the same. Blue
  20. Thanks Showman, I hope to report good news by the end of the month Daryl aka Blue
  21. Much appreciated Thanks Daryl
  22. You are correct. Here in the States you have to have more than one Pop Corn Stand to be competitive locally. I would imagine it's the same in the UK 🇬🇧 Daryl aka Blue
  23. Yes, the main feature is Jenny, those are her songs. By the way that's Jenny's husband playing guitar. He also does sound and lights . He edited the audio tracks from the video. Maple Road is not done and has work this summer. However, it seems like it's easier to book the acoustic act. Same pay and easier set up and tear down. Daryl
  24. Much appreciated Pete. Daryl
  25. Your in my prayers. You'll get though it Mart. I hope they've caught everything early. Daryl
