Thank you for the wonderful complement. It was the highlight of my Semi-Pro career (I have played paying gigs for years, but maintain a fairly high level technical day job).
Sorry I guess these aren't being hosted on Yahoo... but if you click on the links it'll give you a view of the pictures. Most fun I have ever had at a gig, and we had the material so well drilled in our heads, we came off sounding like the original artist's own bands.
That was particularly true of the Hollies material. Our Back Up singers did a particularly superb job on that set. I have listened to the recordings and you could almost close your eyes and believe it was a Hollies concert.
All in all it was an experience I hope to repeat next year with a gaggle of different artists. We were told by the talent agency (Mars talent from NY) that they'd use us for anything they have in Northern California without hesitation. That was a pretty nice complement too!
Maybe next year we'll have a dressing room that isn't an RV!
