And once again Pickled BEATS returns to the beer garden at Bistro America in Batavia IL this Friday, Sept. 5th on River St. We're playing from 8 to 11 pm. I'll be bringing out my two Epics (fretted & fretless).

This Friday Pickled BEATS plays in the dining room at Bistro America for a Halloween party. Bistro is located at 12 N. River St. in Batavia, Illinois, and we play from 9:30 to 12:30. I'll be using my fretted Epic.

Lo & behold, my band finally has our website up. The link is http://www.pickled-beats.com.  
The tunes page features MP3s of many PB originals. I played either my Distillate or Epics  on all of them except Bahama Beach, where I used my Guild Starfire fretless.

Just played the first song, the bass sounds very good; smooth playing, clean recording, nice tone.

It all sounds good.  Nice mix of styles I happen to like.  Sounds like you have some good chemistry in the band.  If you're ever up Milwaukee way, I'd love to hear you in person!
 
Very nice website, too.  Good presentation - seems like it would be easy to get a feel for what would you'd hear in one of your shows.

Thanks Dave & Bill,
We do about 50/50 Original / cover tunes at regular gigs to keep the crowd happy. One of the guitarists has a home studio, so we can work on our stuff and friends songs pretty much at our leisure. We aren't traveling the band currently. Just a bunch of weekend warriors with checkered pasts.

Pickled BEATS will be playing at 602 North, a club in Glendale Heights, IL on Friday March 19. This is a Battle of the Bands with us, Spear Fish and Khaos Theory. I'll be using my Epics again. PB plays 9-10, doing a mix of our originals and covers. The winner by popular vote gets to come back for another battle (the finals) in April.

I raise a jar to you!
May all your beats be pickled!
 
I love the name of your band.  I can't help
smiling every time I read it.

Mike,
 
I've been to 602 North a few times, but never played there.  Was wondering, do you have to bring your gear or do they have house gear that people use?  Good luck on Friday, I plan on checking your set out.

Thanks Kevin,
I was hoping to see you again (and maybe your new deliveries - Mark King & Series II).
No, 602 does not have stage gear on the weekends, except for monitors and PA mains, mics and stands. I'm using a slightly smaller rig currently on stage, a Workingman's 12 and a Goliath III, but I'll have both of my Epics along. Gary Belniak and I are also backing a young guitarist/vocalist named Noah Gabriel on Saturday at River Lane in Geneva. I'll be playing fretless for Noah's show.

Playing tonight, playing tonight, oh boy, oh boy, oh boy, I'm playing tonight!  
 
Mike (doesn't get out enough)
