That's awesome man!
The biggest one I played was 500-600. It was for an all ontario curling championship dance. Bunch of freakin kids, but whatever.
It was all-ontario! Pretty cool if you ask me!

The best part were the autographs. I felt incredible!

Do you get to stay on longer as bassist or were you guest for just that show?

David.

Awesome. Largest audience I've ever played for was about 7000, and that wasn't as a bassist but as part of a sax section. That's got to be a rush.

I play with them when they need me. I tend to just be a for hire guy. Less Drama, better money, and get to play with alot more bands that way.

Dig the video. Dig the tunes. Nicely done. GREAT MIX. First time hearing any of your material, and I really like it. You're bass line is nice and fat and warm. Well done. Hat's off.
