Title: FICCION opening for ASIA in Caracas May 26, 2011

How could I possibly forget this section of the forum? Although the gig was a couple months ago, still will take the chance to share with you the awesomeness of my Epic5 on stage  Lotsa questions about my bass (almost more than any question about the band, FORTUNATELY!). FICCION is a prog-rock band that was born in 1975, of which I am the newest member -I just  got on board last year for the recording of their 3rd album for Musea Records in France- and had the chance to open for British legendary supergroup ASIA -original line up- a couple months ago here in Caracas. Of course, I HAD to take my Alembic on stage this time ;). So here they go, couple clips taken by one of the band's assistant with a handycam, and a short one taken by one of the attendees, that happened to show up at YouTube a couple days after the event.
 
I should warn.. there were a lot of weird and uncomfortable circumstances surrounding this event, and both the drummer and me were quite uneasy with the keyboardist's performance. But hey, he's the band owner and founder, and he paid us, so... you know how the story goes. Enjoy, if you can!
