Nice videos. Love your singers sports jacket. Daryl

My pedal board failed last weekend.I went bass to amp. My G&L ASAT has an active pre amp so it wasn't so bad. When I returned home I looked at everything and found the my wireless transmitter and receiver were set to different channels. An easy fix. Lol Daryl

This was a gig we maybe should have passed on because of the drummer stuff. However Strawberry Fest is a big event and we have a good relationship with the owner of Weislers who sponsored us. So I guess it was more of a business decision. It was a 3-7 gig. That's very long for me. And our 2 breaks were short. Not a good gig for me. I can't point fingers at the dep drummer. He did the best he could under the circumstances. Daryl

Rhearsal footage. Pretty long version. I love how the bass player is playing way outside of the box.Very raw, no post production. This is what Chic sounds like live. Headphones or ear buds needed for this one Daryl

We've been playing a lot of the same stuff for over 15 years. However, our material is pretty much wide open. And we never play anything the same twice. I posted a video of us performing Neil Young's " Ohio". We've been playing it for years but not like the video. It was basically a jam format. When it works it's very cool. When it doesn't it's a drag. Daryl

This Saturday we're playing Strawberry Fest. Sponsored by C.Weislers. Huge event with lots of walk by traffic. We start at 2:00. There will be a covered stage. Dep drummer, no rehearsal with him. We'll be winging it. I need this gig money. I have property taxes due on 7/31. Daryl

Now that you mention it , it does look very Fender Lake Placid Blue. Daryl

You guys look great. Daryl

Car Show gig was ok. 11-2. Certainly nothing to write home about. Daryl

These guys look like a million bucks ! Daryl

I get it. We never take videos or post them. I ran into these videos by accident. I don't know who took them or posted them. Daryl

We played a 6-8 acoustic gig at Reveredin Delafield last night. An hour commute one way. We played outside to a lovely dinner crowd. The weather was fantastic. Not a big payday. However all 4 of us walked away with a hundred bucks. 10:30am sound check tomorrow morning for the full Maple Road gig at the car show tomorrow. Daryl

Thanks Moley, I couldn't hear the BVs on stage. I didn't know Max was singing until I saw the video. Daryl

Thanks Dave, I think for me it a longevity thing. I'm not a technical player . I just fell into bass naturally when I was around 13 or 14. My feeling and love for it is the same at 70. I also think what we do is very "jam brandish" and more of a regional appeal. I'll be looking for some video from your band Dave. Daryl

Thanks Dave, Here's our version of Ohio. Daryl

Thank You. much appreciated. Daryl

Thanks Lozz, It was a bit of a struggle for me. That was the first song of the set. We hadn't played together for quite awhile. Daryl

Very clean ! Ilike it. Daryl

Thanks Dave, That's one of Jenny's originals. We have several big gigs this summer. I never know where the videos come from. We don't do any videos ourselves. I stumbled upon this video yesterday. I had never seen it before. I'm still playing the G&L ASAT bass. Daryl

I hope I get a chance to check out some of the cars too. We played this gig last year with no stage. This year they have a stage. We have not played together since March 8th. I found a clip from that show. Daryl

THIS SATURDAY EVERYONE! Maple Road Blues Band plays this fantastic car show from 11am-2pm! Check it out! Jenny L. Abbott-Goodell Daryl Wheeler Max Jones Rory Grouse *Heidi Lange Rods -N- Relics Car Club We haven't played together or rehearsed in months. This is a car show, it's walk by traffic. We'll get a chance to work out the kinks for some of the higher profile summer shows coming up. Especially our 8:30 slot at Bastille Days. Daryl * I have no idea who Heidi is.

Very cool pic. Daryl

I never eat before or at a gig. However I like taking home a comped entree at the end of the night. Daryl
