Great gig at The Harley Motor. And nice hours 5:30-8:30. I was home by 9:30. We had a blast. Blue

Ok guys, does this look even close. This is what we have. However, only found in New Jersey. A Jimmy Buffs Sausage and Potato Sandwich. Blue

Back in Jersey we had Jimmy Buffs. A pastry pocket stuffed with fried sausage, potatoes, onions abd green pepper. Believe it or not. also served in a greasy brown paper bag. Delicious ! Blue

Acoustic gig. She's Right I'm Left This Saturday 1/14 @The Harley Motor Milwaukee WI 5:30 Blue

Wow! Cool Blue

It sure sounds nice but I think I'm imagining myself there at age 23 not 69.😒 Blue

I know my ex wife lives an hour north of London. Is that too close? 😀 Blue

Ahh ok. Thanks Pete. Daryl

Arriving on time, setting up and tearing down in a timely manner.Play by their rules. Going out of your way to work with the staff. Blue

Thanks Yeah, I noticed his harmonies but only in the clip. He does a nice job.When I'm playing I'm more focused on keeping the groove tight. I'm working on adding my own harmony to a few songs. I struggle with singing and playing bass at the same time. Blue

Smoggies, Monkey Hangers ? Blue

I saw a Youtube video that said the night life there was fantastic. It sounds great except for the cold. And I'm thinking it would have been great to have moved there when I was 29 instead of 69. Blue

I'm thinking it's expensive to live in Newcastle. Blue

Can you guys tell me about Newcastle. Is the night life there any different than other cities. If yes, why ? Blue

My persona sort of goes out the window when the show is over and the crowd sees me packing and loading the van. 😀 Blue

It was actually a Church Festival gig. It's happened to me before. I think twice in the last 10 years.😀 Blue

It didn't work out. She thought I was someone different. 😒 Blue

Hi Pete, Your probably right. I've gone out with ladies that met me at gigs and they were excited in the moment. When we would go out on a date they were usually disappointed. Daryl

Interesting point. A few months ago I was approached by a pretty lady after a gig when I was packing up my gear. She introduced herself gave me a hug and her cell number. Where else but a gig would that happen to me? 😀 Blue

It's part of our job in my band. During breaks we're required to go out and chat with people and thank them for coming out and supporting us. After all there are plenty of other places those folks could have been. Going off and hiding in a corner by yourself during a break would not work with us. Blue

Isn't a dance groove based in a scale ? Blue

Agreed, I think I'm introverted most of the time. However, at gigs I get to be a different person for a few hours. Even during breaks when I'm chatting with people I'm charming and witty. When the gig is over and I'm back to normal life I'm very shy snd quiet. Blue

Agreed 100% Blue

I only know two guys that have made a good living as pro touring performers. Going back to their High School days both were musically light years ahead of everyone else even back then. But here's the thing at a young age both were willing to take huge risks that most wouldn't take. So, I would say Pros are willing to take risks. Blue

What do you think about this? And I guess I'm bringing " Pro Opportunities " into the mix. Don't bands that have " Pro Opportunities " have an A List of players to call in most cases ? If you are not on that list your chances wouldn't be very good. Blue
