I think some bands are good for the camera and some are not. We're not. Blue

THANK YOU to the Milwaukee Boat Line and the Vista King for hosting another great concert cruise last night! We had a blast as usual! Being the first of the season with the new Covid restrictions in place, no one knew quite what to expect, but we would strongly recommend getting tickets to an upcoming cruise! The staff did a great job, and with the limited tickets available and open air upper deck, there is more than enough room to move about, dance the night away and practice social distancing! The crew wear masks throughout the night, and passengers need one while waiting in line to board, and while on the lower level (because it is enclosed) which is where the bar and restrooms are located. All in all, a GREAT experience for all!! Thank you to our friend Jim Kennedy for the photos!

I feel the same way about my Gibson Gold Top Les Paul Bass. Great bass, but I never connected with it. Blue

I'm not sure how old an "old bag" is, however I'd like to see as many of us 65 plus folks hang in there as long as possible. Blue

This is the kind of stuff I love to hear. Great groove Paul. Blue

I'm bringing a mask , hand sanitizer and gloves. Blue

Something will give and things will change. Gigs are in the not to distant future. Blue

MAPLE ROAD THIS SATURDAY July 11th!! Still some tickets available! 2 hour Vista King Concert Cruise on beautiful Lake Michigan! Boards at 8:30 pm sharp and your first drink is free! Join the party! Guys, I'm concerned about this gig. They have cut the capacity in half for distancing but I'm still considered.I plan on staying away from everyone

It's a fun gig, basically a booze cruise. We play for 1. 5 hours. $20 00 a head . We get a good percentage of the take . The load in and parking is not great. Blue

Your already on the guest list Happy Jack. Blue

Piggly Wiggly also known as The Pig.

The laws are so lose here in Wisconsin. A lot if folks are not wearing masks or distancing. Blue

I don't know much about the gig, I'm pretty sure it will be outside. What is Tesco Extra? Blue

Agreed, a gig is a gig. We have one at a Super Market coming up. Blue

I'm playing an acoustic gig this Friday . We will be playing The Barley Pop in Germantown. We will be playing outdoors to the customers picking up their " take out" meals. This is the way it is for some of us, basically grabbing anything we can get until Wisconsin opens up. Hopefully we'll get some media coverage. We have good gigs booked starting the first week in June if we're open. Blue

I was just thinking about a few people I know that worked in restaurants. Will people go back to dining out and crowding into restaurants if not ,I doubt those jobs will last long. I'm talking about bands, cooks, waitresses, bartenders and dish washers. Blue

My band has been in existence for over 15 years. I hope we can survive a few months of downtime. Blue

That's another concern many of us should have. Regardless of when the gigs come back. Can your band survive this down time? Blue

Thanks Pete. Regardless of what I'm doing or where I go, I never leave my small condo without wearing a mask and gloves. Daryl

This is a time where most of you guys will have a little extra time for practicing. Blue

Hi Pete, Good to hear from you. Stay safe. Blue

I can't put into words how much I miss playing with my band. For those who follow my threads know where I stand on money. At this point if it's safe I'll play free of charge. Blue
