  1. Oh well, Tues. Aug. 4th Maple Road@ Konkel Park in Greenfield has been canceled courtesy of Covid. They will book the band next season. Blue
  2. Thanks dmccombe7 I've never been a stand in the back by the drummer player. Blue
  3. I have no idea what those speakers were for. Old boat stuff I reckon. Blue
  4. The load in was so poor we didn't use our monitors. Blue
  5. I think some bands are good for the camera and some are not. We're not. Blue
  6. THANK YOU to the Milwaukee Boat Line and the Vista King for hosting another great concert cruise last night! We had a blast as usual! Being the first of the season with the new Covid restrictions in place, no one knew quite what to expect, but we would strongly recommend getting tickets to an upcoming cruise! The staff did a great job, and with the limited tickets available and open air upper deck, there is more than enough room to move about, dance the night away and practice social distancing! The crew wear masks throughout the night, and passengers need one while waiting in line to board, and while on the lower level (because it is enclosed) which is where the bar and restrooms are located. All in all, a GREAT experience for all!! Thank you to our friend Jim Kennedy for the photos!
  7. I feel the same way about my Gibson Gold Top Les Paul Bass. Great bass, but I never connected with it. Blue
  8. I'm not sure how old an "old bag" is, however I'd like to see as many of us 65 plus folks hang in there as long as possible. Blue
  9. This is the kind of stuff I love to hear. Great groove Paul. Blue
  10. I'm bringing a mask , hand sanitizer and gloves. Blue
  11. Something will give and things will change. Gigs are in the not to distant future. Blue
  12. MAPLE ROAD THIS SATURDAY July 11th!! Still some tickets available! 2 hour Vista King Concert Cruise on beautiful Lake Michigan! Boards at 8:30 pm sharp and your first drink is free! Join the party! Guys, I'm concerned about this gig. They have cut the capacity in half for distancing but I'm still considered.I plan on staying away from everyone
  13. It's a fun gig, basically a booze cruise. We play for 1. 5 hours. $20 00 a head . We get a good percentage of the take . The load in and parking is not great. Blue
  14. Your already on the guest list Happy Jack. Blue

  18. The laws are so lose here in Wisconsin. A lot if folks are not wearing masks or distancing. Blue

  22. I'm playing an acoustic gig this Friday . We will be playing The Barley Pop in Germantown. We will be playing outdoors to the customers picking up their " take out" meals. This is the way it is for some of us, basically grabbing anything we can get until Wisconsin opens up. Hopefully we'll get some media coverage. We have good gigs booked starting the first week in June if we're open. Blue
  23. I was just thinking about a few people I know that worked in restaurants. Will people go back to dining out and crowding into restaurants if not ,I doubt those jobs will last long. I'm talking about bands, cooks, waitresses, bartenders and dish washers. Blue
  24. My band has been in existence for over 15 years. I hope we can survive a few months of downtime. Blue
  25. That's another concern many of us should have. Regardless of when the gigs come back. Can your band survive this down time? Blue
