Not lame if you think it's cool.
Carrots if you're not sure.
I guess my vote is for carrots. |

|  | Slush Machine Detritus | | Join Date: Feb 2004 Location: Knoxgelateen | | | Beautiful bass and strings. I happen to love red, so that works aesthetically for me.
What kind of gig is it, that you think the bass might be too much?
Personally, not having a NYE gig this year, I think it's great that you have a gig, and it'd be hard to lame out anything about such good fortune.
Play great and have a wonderful time! |

Play great and have a wonderful time! | It's a gig in Small Town Nebraska (Gretna) USA, where men are men and sheep are scared. 
Thanks for the kind wishes. |

I think they'll work. I'm going to go ahead with them tonight. According to the poll I can either play them or bring carrots.  |
