Blue, I Found A Video

Hope the link works.

I'm posting it to give an example of what I mean by US Midwest Bar Band. We are not a pro band by any means. We are an amateur band (11 years and going strong) that just happens to work a lot.

Good people, gigging , making money and most of all having fun.

Nice Blue, very nice.
Although surely you are a professional rather than amateur musician?

Enjoyed that, cheers for sharing.

There's actually a few Maple Road vids in the links on youtube beneath the clip, including an 18 minute demo reel which at one point has you up front and centre playing what looks like a rather snazzy T bird style bass on All Along the Watch Tower, not an invisible bear in sight.

Thanks Cosmo,

I would say I'm an amateur musician with a pro attitude.

The nonchalant stance perfectly captured. You have a good band Blue.

Yeah, I saw that demo reel, I think some of that has the bass player I replaced. I've been with these guys for 5 years.

Tidy little band you have there blue. You can tell you all approach it with professionalism, and are well rehearsed (or play regularly).
The singers voice reminds me of sheryl Crowe.

Keep up the good work mate!

The Scots have a word that sums you up Blue; Gallus. It's a compliment.

Jenny is the star.

Wish I could have posted a more recent bar clip.

Thanks NoRhino,

Thanks

That's my G&L ASAT bass. Right now it's my primary gigging bass. I had put it away for a year, I forget why. It's really a cool bass. It looks great sounds great. I purchased it used about 10 years ago. I really got a good deal on it.

Cool vids. I like your laid back playing style Blue 👍

[andytoad]

That's a great bass tone 17mins into your showreel during name intros..

Crikey! I'm not surprised he was replaced. At one point his bass is badly out of tune.

PS, your band leader is superb.
