  • My first band audition in over 20 years...

    ...is Sunday.
    < me (actual size)
    Been playing my ass off to get a set ready for it. Learning the tunes is the easy part. Realizing that a lot of your support gear is older than your children - priceless.

    Got it all fixed. Looking forward to the jam!
    750xl, 88LE, AT1, Roswell Pro, SG-X, 4 others...
    Stilletto Duece 1/2 Stack, MkIII Mini-Stack, J-Station, 12 spaces of misc rack stuff, Sonar 4, Event 20/20, misc outboard stuff...

    Why do I still want MORE?

        Hope it goes well. I just wish I could play good enough to be in a band.

          I bet you could easily find a band, bad enough for you to play in!


          Good luck on the audition nor!

              I personally do not care how it was built as long as it is a good playing/sounding instrument.

              Yes, there's a bee in the pudding.

                support gear? Jockstrap? Girdle? Zimmer frame?

                knock 'em dead, Ron!

                Don, if you heard me play, you'd be astounded to think that I actually play in a band. And get paid (a little) to do it! Get your ass out there

                        You are right. I just want to go out there and have fun. Not trying to knock the world dead or nothing. I guess I should look around.
