Title: Out of retirement...
Post by: cozmik_cowboy on August 18, 2010, 07:02:11 AM
...sort of.  Capt. Swing (a band composed entirely of Northern Illinois University history professors) have, after more than 5 years of playing parties, etc., scheduled their first paying gig - which if they finish according to  plan will also be the release party for their 2nd CD - and they've asked me to do sound.  So Sept. 17, I'll be behind the board for the first time in 5 years, and doing a bar gig for the first time in 25.  If you happen to in or around DeKalb, IL, drop by O'Leary's Pub & say hi.

ps - No, they don't play swing; they're named after a 19th century Luddite movement (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Captain_Swing).

Now what are the chances of that?  In the whole town of Asheville I can't find someone to sit down and play with; and they found a whole band in the history department.
