Kimberly's Gigs

[kimberly]

Hey Elwoodblue,  
 
If you're talking the Pegasus I'm playing there once a month so there's plenty of opportunity to 'catch my act' again.
 
If it's the Casa Luna, it's so disorganized I don't even know when I'll play there again, other than it'll be 'sometime soon'.  I definitely recommend calling in advance as in, *no sooner than show time*, because the staff is likely 'in the dark' also.  Heck of a way to run a business, but as the owner's husband is disabled due to stroke and she's taking care of him, her kids/household and the business all at the same time, it'll be like this for a while.  
 
  There's also my open mike at Tizley's in Poulsbo every Wednesday from 8-11pm.  
 
Hope to see you sometime.  
 
Best Regards,
 
Kimberly

Outdoor gig that should be a blast to play.  
 
(I got this job via email from the Entertainment Committee of the Poulsbo Farmers Market.  This is especially sweet because they tracked me down to see if I would be interested in playing it.  My very first 'unsolicited gig'.)  
 
And lastly for 'Something' completely different.

Good gig.  I've been in once a month since January.  Decent environment, fun to play.  
 
 
Every Wednesday 8-11pm.
 
Tizley's EuroPub  
18928 Front St.  
Poulsbo, WA  
360-394-0080  
 
Still doing my open mike hostess gig.  Month 16 and going strong.  
 
 
 
I got a really nice write up in the entertainment section of the local paper, the North Kitsap Herald.  
 
http://www.northkitsapherald.com/portals-code/list.cgi?paper=95&cat=44&id=1194388&more=0
 
 
 
My CD project is almost back to square one.  I just wasn't satisfied with the results I was getting and decided to 'do it myself'.  Thus explains the 'newly arrived' Tascam 2488 Mark II  to my 'bag of goodies'.  Recording is a breeze, it's the mix where the magic happens.  
 
 
Brings to mind I'm 'entertaining' the thought of 'offing' my on stage amp(s) and running strictly through my PA.  I just acquired a Yamaha EMX-5016CF powered mixer.  Sixteen channels, dual effects and 500 watts a side.  In 'messing around' with it, I'm running eight channels counting a CD player for break music with inputs from my looper, synth and drum machine.  With a pair of 2 way 12's for my mains and using my Epifani for a 'sub', it's a pretty decent sounding system.    The downside is I'm carrying more and more stuff with more and more complexity for set up.  Must be for the 'love of the music', as it sure isn't for the pay.  
 
And that's the way it is April 30th, 2008.  
 
Best regards to one and all,
 
Kimberly

Hi Kimberly; was wondering where you been.  Nice write-up in the Herald!

[kimberly]

Hi Dave,  
 
Thank you, which segways quite nicely into 'fixing' the link'.  
 
http://www.pnwlocalnews.com/kitsap/nkh/entertainment/18151159.html
 
I guess they just archived the article, which changed the link, sooo...  
 
I'll drop you a line offline.  
 
Gots to go now.  Nice to 'see' you Dave.  
 
Best Regards,
 
Kimberly

July 26th is my Birthday Kimberley. be sure to toast me, I'll be just over 21 ;-)  I'll be watching Jools Holland and his big band at an outdoor concert at Alnwick Castle in Northumberland (England) so I'll not make your gig, Sorry ;-)
 
Graeme

[kimberly]

Graeme - Happy birthday in advance!  At just over 21 you're looking mighty spry for such a wee young lad!  Must be all that good country living and clean air.  
 
I propose a toast to One and All at the Bainbridge Bass Rumble and if we manage to survive all the toasts, another one on the 26th.  Enjoy the concert!  
 
Til then.  
 
Best Regards,
 
Kimberly

So Kimberly, does intimate in your book mean the same as mine-small and very unaccomadating?
