  1. Another outstanding clip. Full sound nice vocals Blue
  2. Now this looks like a hot gig. The clip captures excitement and fun for all. Your band sounds fantastic great musicianship and chemistry.And I don't throw words around like fantastic very often. Most of the time I'd say; " Ok, another marginal. rendition of " Sweet Home Alabama" But you guys were fully committed to the song and rocked the hell out of it. Andfor the cover haters there is nothing easy about what Mudpups band did with the song. No matter what you say it's not a paint by numbers proposition when you do a top notch job with any cover.

  3. Great gig last night, actually the last 2 have been super hot bar gigs. Last night, well we must be doing something right. I stopped in and played a set at an open mic with Johnny T Bird at 2:00pm and I mentioned to another bass player I was playing the Filmore that night. He said his band played there last weekend and there were only 6 people there. I arrived at load in at 7:00 and I couldn't even find a parking spot. We packed the place. Again it's all about marketing and having a known and we'll liked front person.
  4. I'm going to come up with a plan to franchise the invisible bear. Blue
  5. I can't remember how many times this MIJ Fender P has been dropped. Last time it was face down onto concrete. A few dings, still plays like a champ.
  6. I read some stuff about Eric Clapton I didn't like. But I eventually gave him a pass. Met Sly Stone in a small club in the 80s. I introduced myself as a long time fan. His response; "Where's the coke?" I was pretty disappointed. Blue
  7. Word to the wise if you have shoulder issues stay away from the Gibson zLes Paul bass unless you're a boat owner and use it as an anchor. Blue
  8. Yeah, I had some password issues. Blue I find my Gibson 1991 Thunderbird relatively thin and light. Blue
  9. My German crafted Hofner Club Bass can't weigh more than 1 pound. Blue
  10. Ok, but most bands never get 1 song in the top ten. 3 seems like a sh#te ton to me.? Blue
  11. We have a great fun mix. Everything from Peter Greene, Robin Trower to Nancy Sinatra. And you really have to have a stellar front person that the crowd believes in. For us it's s young female lead guitarist that plays blistering 70s style blues rock solos that had a fantastic voice and a captivating believable personality. I'm spoiled, I would never play in a band with a dud up front. Blue
  12. Over here in the States we get paid from the income stream of the punters. It's about what they want to hear not what the band wants to play. Blue
