Our Saturday holiday gig was cancelled. So, no gigs this weekend. I guess the venue doubled booked. I'll never understand how that happens. Daryl

Very Nice Daryl

We had a crowd, however it was awkward.Nice room, nice stage and sound. We bought our own lighting. Like I said this place is more for the Saturday night party bands. There were a few "screw ups" musically . Good paying gig and some nice tips. https://www.facebook.com/share/v/1BTJQAGVN2/ https://www.facebook.com/share/v/17qH8nAp5f/ Daryl

Agreed Daryl

Nice depping. Nobody ever calls me for anything. Daryl

Nice Starfire ! Daryl

Maple Road Saturday 11/22/25 7:00-9:00 "Join us in the newly revamped Eden Ave. event venue located inside Game Over, downtown West Bend! Full bar, killer food menu including smash burgers and a Saturday night of live rockin' blues tunes!" I don't know about this one. I have one main concern. This is downtown West Bend (30k). We're not a 3 hour Saturday night party band. We're a better fit for the larger Summertime afternoon multi-band festivals and fairs, playing for 1.5 hours. This could be a real dud. I've been wrong before. And here's another issue. Dep drummer. Daryl

The guy was a real " peice of work". I'll try and find a pic of the band. Daryl

I don't think I can top being spat on. I remember playing a club where they put us in a separate room with no bar. The clientle were in their early 20s. They would walk into the room we were playing in and immediately take an " about face" and walk out. Lol Daryl

You might be right Pete. Wiki has been wrong in the past. Daryl

Dave,Some venues like Harley might pay them by direct deposit a month prior to the gig.The BL and Band Manager pay us with their own money. I'm sure this is very rare. It's really very nice. I'm always handed a pay envelope when I get in the van. Dave, it's kind of cool. I've played in bands in the past who handled money very poorly. Here's a sad story. I was actually in sort of a Glam band in the early 2000s. We played Shank Hall in Milwaukee ( referenced in the 1st Spinal Tap movie ). We took in $900.00 in cash. The BL didn't pay any of us and he kept all the money . The band broke up a few days later. Daryl

Dave, Penny is band leader, her husband is our manager. They started the band back in 2007, might have been 2005. Their concept and idea. Daryl

Dave, I did a little research on Bobby. I'm 7 years older then him. I was born in 1954. Bobby was born in 1961. Dang, I'm older than guys I thought were " old guys". lol He passed in 2021. I think he did a lot for very little credit. Daryl

Wow! Very nice performance. Clean, tight groove and excellent vocals. Daryl

How many bands find out after the fact that a guy wasn't a fit because nothing was laid out before him. A complete understanding of what a potential new member is looking for in a band and what we require. Daryl
