Last gig with coverband

Post by MikeD » Sun Sep 17, 2017 6:00 pm

Big stage, fun crowd and we didn't have to bother with PA and light so all in all good gig. I drove and even though rock'n'roll really should be played while consuming a few cold ones it was still fun.
I had my 112 and the basist had his 210 due to the trailor not being roadworthy and the drummers gear being, as usual, way too much.
So next Sunday we're turning the rehearsal studio into more of a recording studio and the search is on for a new Drummer since our old one has decided on a 6 month rest from music. That and the fact that I think he really just wants the rock'n'roll lifestyle and the instant gratitude that comes with stage-fame.
Got a good pic before the show, I love how visable the orange is, even if it's just the little one!!

Quite a sad day for you I expect, but plans for the future sound good. Good luck with it all. :D

Good luck with the new project!

Hope it'll go well. Sometimes it's good to try other things - originals are where I'm happiest. They just take forever to finish them around day job and parenting!!!!
