Hey Detman.
That sounded great. Way more balanced. I think you sounded more sure of your self. I love the sound of your guitar. Great job to all of you. Is it hard playing in a choir with all those people? Seems like it would be hard not to step on anyone's toes.

This is an easy one. Everyone knows that music is more important than food....

Play music 'till you get hungry, then eat.....

DT this is not the first gig I have played I was on the road for over 40 years with bands and I retired to just recording and composition this is the first paying gig I've played in over 10 years I did do some church productions and lots of jam sessions but I haven't done a single in over 10 yrs and I will shoot some videos and get some photos to chronicle this event

DT my first gig is tomorow at 1pm a house party on the lake my pa was shipped today and it wont get here in time but im going to use a small amp the loop pedal and my acoustic with a mic and keep it simple they like the song 'Edmond Fitzgerald' and Jimmy Bufffet and some Neil Young so I should be ok its only a 1 hr gig and pays 50 bucks plus food and drink but I most likely will book some future gigs from the contacts and its been a while since I was in the saddle so this is a good warmup

well said.
I am not going to be hypocritical here and say how much I will miss him or how great I thought he was because I didnt.
I do admire for what he achieved in his life through music and thats it.

I was watching the news this morning and showing a young woman, probably too young to be around in the early 80's when whacko was at his peak. She was crying her eyes out saying she heard this heard that and then she said " I just dont know who to trust anymore" she looked genuinely heartbroken. My question is WHY? whacko probably didnt even know, he probably maybe never even had eye contact with her. If she is like this with someone she didnt know personally what will she be like with family members when they die. What a sad life she is going to have.
Death of celebrities really goes too far sometimes. Everyone thinks they know the person personally.
It is sad when anyone dies, and you could feel sad,very sad and depressed when a favourite celebrity dies but to act like this is becoming a morbid facsination.
I felt sad when Syd Barrett died and Stuart Adamson, I sad quiet most of the night and had a few whiskies and played their music. I just dont understand why folk take to the streets as if they were demonstrating against the persons death.
Take allsorts in this world I suppose.

Well, looks like whackos surgeon can finally get a day off now.

p.s. Sorry for the bad joke to any whacho fans, I have a sick sense of humour sometimes
