Guess I've been a little remiss on posting gig dates and photos.

Hooked up with a group called "Stroller Goat" back over the winter. After a change of lead singers we've finally gotten around to gigging. The indoor shots are from a place called "Kick Ass Bar & Grill" in Warren, Michigan. The outdoor shots are at the Royal Oak Clay, Glass, and Metal Art Fair in Royal Oak Michigan. These are the first two gigs we've done with our new singer. Since our previous singer was a guy and we didn't wanna throw away all of the stuff we'd worked on, the guitarist and I also do some lead vocals. Couldn't see Leah singing "I Gotta Woman", I'll Be Your Man", "Never Take The Place of Your Man", etc.

James, your bass has spectacular wood grain. What's the body core?

While we were playing the Royal Oak gig, a guy walked up to my side of the stage and just stood there for several minutes, trying to read the headstock. Musta been a bass player.

Oddmetersam,

The bass construction in Mahogany core, Maple Accent laminates, Coco Bolo top and back, and of course Maple neck with Purpleheart laminates and ebony board.

Graeme,

That is basically a Mobile Stage, which as you guessed is basically a trailer that is unfolded into a semi-covered stage. They're pretty cool, I've played on a few of them for festivals and such.

(edited to add the "E" in GRAEME'S name, sorry buddy!)
