February 20th.......Last
night was another performance in front of a packed house, standing room
only. As a band, we played one of our best sets yet. We added a few new
songs, and played them live for the first time. Everyone seemed to enjoy
the new songs. Kevin Lopez sat in with us for the entire set, and added
some nice guitar work. Carlos was his usual amazing self. Greg put on a
nice show on the drums, including an excellent mini-solo. I filled the
pockets as usual. Last night was my first chance to play my new rig
live. The Epifani cab is amazing, and the Fender Jazz sounds great. I
was impressed.
Next week, we are playing a private party on Saturday. After that, we
will start firming up plans for our next gig at Cutter's Point. Stay
tuned............
November 19th......we
gathered the band together and played another gig at Cutters Point. Not
quite as crowded as usual, but we only had three days notice for the
gig. I didn't really expect anyone to show up, but the 30 or so people
who did had a great time.
After some skepticism, and early line-up changes, it didn't look like
the band was going to make it through the summer. It took a couple weeks
to settle on a style of music, but we now have one. Greg and I have
always played well together, so the backbone of the band is set. The
addition of Carlos to the band is just awesome. He has opened the door
for us to play about anything we can think up.
At this point, we will continue to play Cutters Point once a month.
All of us are comfortable with the situation
just how it is at this point. However, we would welcome other
opportunities to play. Just let me know what you have in mind.
Unlike our last band, we are not playing "in your face" rock music.
Now you can hear some smooth jazz, and blues. As well as some upbeat tap
your toes music to keep you in a good mood. What makes it great is that
we are actually making our own music now. Sure, we do some covers of
popular songs, but you'll also hear some original music from us. That is
very exciting for me.
