Live outdoor gig last night

Post by bclaire » Mon Sep 05, 2016 1:27 pm

Played a free fan appreciation show on the common in our town last night. Had a blast - two hour show no breaks. Here's some pix:

Excellent !!
Must be a right blast to open these amps right up!

Ad30TC combo on top of PPC412 ??

Really love your gold leaf tele.

How is the hello kitty one? I've been looking at one on ebay, thinking of getting it and making it giggable.....

When I was playing out I always preferred outdoor gigs. "What's that? More volume? Check!" Looks like a blast.

How often in a night do you pull out the Johnny A.?

One of the only times I find myself in full agreement with the soundguy :D

"What did you say? I need to turn up the volume on my boost cause the solo was to low?! "... I do love repeating that and just staring at our singer!! :lol:

Six 12's sounds really big!

It's only a Hello Kitty strap - the guitar is a refinished 1983 Stratocaster - in Dunkin Donuts' pink. :mrgreen:

I usually use the JA for a number of songs, but last night I had it capo'd for a specific song and tuned to the capo so I only used it on one song.

The other thing that I wished I had learned YEARS ago was to buy a good set of monitor wedges. Our soundman has some good JBL's but these two Turbosound wedges I bought are just simply awesome. I frequently have to ask him to turn them DOWN!

I've actually been looking at them, too, but maybe the black one. Here's a picture of me and my pink Strat from last night:

Nice!! Looks like a blast!

I don't see a velvet rope or metal barriers between you and the fans though. Glad you made it out unscathed.

EDIT: The gold leaf Tele is still Boss.

That guitar rocks. I could (and should) do the whole night with it!
