Baryonyx 03-30-2007, 11:43 AM Were I on that side of the pond I've love to go! I saw LaRue on tour with Satch, he was awesome! Yvon 03-30-2007, 11:45 AM Thanks a lot Randy!! I'm not sure I can make it, but at least I know about it before it's too late!! JimmyM 03-30-2007, 11:53 AM As someone who studied with Dave for 3 years, GO! Twistad 03-30-2007, 11:55 AM Ohhh nice, i will be there for sure. Is it free admission? Bass Boy 03-30-2007, 11:56 AM Yes Bass Boy 04-04-2007, 04:48 PM Well if you missed the clinic don't worry. Steve's really needs to get their s*!$ together. The clinic was held in the guit room in between the doors. This is the main route in the store. A constant parade of customers and staff travelled between Dave and the audience the whole clinic. A few times I had to actually ask staff members to move out of the way so we could see. Dave was noticeably irked (although still very pleasant) but the two hour clinic was over in under an hour. I actually felt embarrassed for the store. Twistad 04-04-2007, 09:29 PM Damn, this sucks... Steves is just an awful store. I could not go because of an exam i had, i'm happy i didn't skip it finally. Smallmouth_Bass 04-04-2007, 09:34 PM Very unprofessional. Sounds like Steve's! I generally never go there to browse; only when I know what I want so it's a quick in and out. I wish they'd open up a Long & Mcquade's in Montreal. 62bass 04-04-2007, 09:37 PM Long and McQuade's clinics are usually run okay. Smallmouth_Bass 04-04-2007, 09:39 PM Not so much for the clinics, but for the store in general. They seem more helpful, nicer and less pushy overall. Bass Boy 04-05-2007, 08:07 AM I wish they'd open up a Long & Mcquade's in Montreal. This could be a reality sooner than you think. Twistad 04-05-2007, 09:00 AM Speaking of clinics, i saw Victor Wooten do one at the CTC Musique in Longueuil 2 months ago. It was super-well organized and everything went perfectly, maybe Steves should take example from smaller stores. Bass Boy 04-05-2007, 09:15 AM Holy crap! How did I miss that? Yvon 04-05-2007, 11:28 AM Holy crap! How did I miss that? I told hime the same, I learned about it the day after I think. It was in a small music store in brossard or St-Hubert Twistad 04-05-2007, 01:21 PM Yeah, that was the problem with that clinic, outside of the store's website, there were practically no advertisements. I would not have known about it if it wasn't for a friend of mine. CTC Musique is on taschereau boulevard, they're a pretty big endorser for Ampeg which i think was part of the reason why they were able to have Vic do a clinic. |
