I've seen this band. The singer/songwriter is very good. The style is roots/americana. The guitar player was pretty good with lots of nice licks, but Art tells me they have a new guitar player since I saw them a month or so ago. When I saw them, they were running everything through a PA that just wasn't up to the task. However, Art's Hyak came through nice and clear and clean. I haven't been to the Rocket Club yet, it's fairly new, but Art tells me they have a really nice sound system there. I have a meeting Thursday night, but I'm hoping it lets out in time to swing by and catch a few tunes.

Thanks for the review Dave. I haven't been there yet either only word of mouth and specs at their technical page about the sound system. Not sure what I'm playing this week but either way I will most likely get a line out connection to that system (especially with a low powered rig in the size of this club).

Art; how was the gig? Did you guys do the whole show, or did you share the bill?

A nice gig, thanks!
We shared the bill and brought in "Jonathan Ammons and the Electric Ghost Collective" for a set.

Looking forward to the next gig and some upcoming studio time.

Best, Art
