Nothing scandalous, but I am seeing some unintended consequences creeping in. This thread is a celebration of our prettier bandmates; can the sniping, or take it private.

If there is any sort of "best of," let it be more subjective: If you can't become a club member, then please post your "dream bill" for a 3-performer gig. Use a format of "singer or band name/TBer."

(BTW, I am rather soon leaving this group due to straight job change - different town; so anyone locally in AZ looking for a great gig, feel free to message me. And, you get to join the club!)
S'up Plank? No love for the neighbors?

That's just wrong. Usually a mic in front of you is a ticket to the front of the stage! Put that guitarist with a music stand in the back!

Of course, you do get the better view....

It's definitely got that "it puts the lotion on its skin" vibe, doesn't it? It's the basement of a the very old house where we rehearse. Or used to. I gather we're moving now.

Sigh, I can't play. Our singer has great pipes but doesn't make the cut on the eye candy part. Oh well, I can lurk and live vicariously through you guys.
