I'll be playing with a country band tomorrow at a benefit at the Red Frog in Colfax, California. First time playing a gig with these guys after only two rehearsals. Should be interesting. hehehehe.
Next week, my band "Dead Enough" will be playing at Retro Junkie in Walnut Creek. Our first time in this showcase club.

Enjoy!
You mentioned the gig went well in another thread. Any high points from the show?
Yea, the country gig went surprisingly well, especially after its inauspicious start. I arrived for load-in and discovered we were playing on an outdoor deck facing the inside of the restaurant where all the people could enjoy the interior warmth and watch us freeze. Needless to say, I was not prepared for an outdoor gig. I was wearing a nice western style shirt my wife surprised me with for the gig. It spent the night under a borrowed purple hoody. Yea, purple, the traditional country color! The band actually stepped up to the plate quite nicely compared to what I heard at rehearsal. I hit a few hiccups due to frozen fingers, but all-in-all I had a lot of fun and the crowd really liked us. I have another gig with them at the end of May.
