Wanted to semi-hijack the thread to say the best all-girl tribute band ever is the Iron Maidens.  They're from SoCal, but played here in NYC and killed it note for note.  This 5'2 girl Stevie Heiress nailing those Harris riffs that have befuddled me for 15 years.  They're great if anyone ever has a chance.  They've gotten big enough that they've had Lemme and others on as guests.  They have the whole show down pat.
 
I haven't been to Chicago in a long time, but next time I do I'll be sure to see if the Pickled Beats are playing, seems like you are almost every weekend, or at least every other.  That's cool.

Pickled BEATS is part of a double bill on Saturday, September 30th at Synergy Entertainment Complex on Roosevelt Rd. in West Chicago. Synergy is a good room with a large stage, pro loghts, and an excellent house sound system.
We'll be on from 9:30 to 11 doing originals and some covers, then Petty Theft will finish out the night.
I'll be using my fretted and fretless Epics as usual.
Contact the club at: (630) 231-6000 for cover charge.

Update for tonight...
I've decided to bring out my '81 Distillate to the Synergy show instead of my walnut fretted Epic. The bigger stage and especially proper stage lighting will make this a valid choice. Besides, I haven't gigged this bass since I put the FretFX leds on the walnut Epic. I will also have my maple fretless Epic along for the Dark Side hunk we do.

Mike ...nock them death ...well ....oh ...uhuh ...break a leg ....oh ...(even worse) ...anyway  ...enjoy yourself!
 
Sam ...visiting the past is a good thing as for looking how to straight out a line right through where you are now to the future. I mean to say ...you're definitley up to some new band-mates for playing together so ...it seems quite logic and good that you rerun something of your past ...a question of taking a good start!!!

Boy, Oh Boy!
 
I'm playing an acoustic show with Noah Gabriel at River Lane in Geneva, IL this Saturday starting at about 9 pm. It might be just we two or there might be a percussionist. I'll be playing my fretless Epic through a G&K Backline 110 (a remarkable little amp).
 
Hope to see some folks out

Mike,  
 
I don't know about this Saturday, but somewhere I read about you playing on May 29th.  If you can, please give me the info on that gig.  I think you mentioned playing with another band you're in.  Something about Dead tunes.  If it is still on and close by, I will check it out.  
 
Later,

Hi Kevin,  
Yeah, I'm playing with my Grateful Dead cover band, Ragweed, at The Onion Pub & Brewery on Saturday, May 29th from 8 pm to 11 or 11:30 pm (Time was revised) in their outdoor beer garden (or inside if it's raining). The Onion Pub is at 22221 Pepper Road in Lake Barrington (847 area code). The show is all mid-70s Dead tunes, and we split the show into two long sets.  
Meanwhile, Pickled BEATS has several shows booked into the summer that I'll be promoting as they approach.  
Mike

And now it's time to LET THE PROMOTION BEGIN!
 
Pickled BEATS will be playing the beer garden at O'Brien's Pub & Grill (formerly Bistro America) at 12 N. River St. in Batavia several times this summer. The first date is Saturday, June 5th from 8:30 -12 pm. We had a great time here last summer, and we'll have some new original material, some new covers, and special guests as well.

Hey Mike:  Got a babysitter - we'll see you play tonight at the Onion Pub.

Excellent!
I'm putting a set of Thomastic Jazz Flats on my Distillate for this show, and I'll bring my fretted Epic as a backup. Kevin K said he's going to be there as well, so the night shoud be very cool!
(Showing my enthusiasm)
