A pic of me and my band mates (but mostly me) during our short gig last week.  | ||

Excellent, Mike - how did the gig go? | ||
| Michael_kelly (Michael_kelly) Username: Michael_kelly Registered: 03-2008 |
Mick, it was great. It was a charity event, a battle of the bands. 7 bands. We each got about 20 minutes. We played 20th Century Boy by T-Rex, Wonderwall by Oasis, Freefallin' by Tom Petty, and Little Bones by The Tragically hip. | ||

Great pic Michael! Looks like quite a big venue, I play Free Falling too in the covers band I play in. Is that a Mandolin I see on stage? gcw | ||

Gary, Yes, it is quite a big venue, The Opera House, in Toronto. Probably holds a 1000 people. Lots of big acts have played there. Green day, Cheap Trick, etc. Think we had about 350 at the gig. Yup, that's a mandolin. And I'm playing a cheap Tele knock-off, a J&D. | ||

Great to see yet another fellow guitarist here! | ||

Hubert, I've a long way to go before I call myself a guitarist, trust me. :-) Just starting out. I've always had an interest in it, but it's only been in the last couple years i've been able to explore it. Do you play, as well? | ||

Indeed, I do. I'm a music school product, so it's mostly jazz standards here, although we're also doing a couple of Fleetwood Mac numbers, just to have some variety sonority-wise and so that the audience's ears can have a rest. |
