Greetings and salutations!
Me and the KRB had a fun time on the beach at the Seal Beach summer concert series. We played the first concert of the series last night to a fun crowd with perfect weather.
Skip and Art were chatting while Art unloads when I pulled up. We were glad that the city had blocked off some parking spaces for us on the street. Parking is a nightmare down by the beach.
I rolled my gear up to the small-ish stage (12x16) and found a nice QSC sound system.
Art and Mario get their gear in order. Skip was already set up, trumpet and everything.
I should've brought my small rig. But I think my GK stuff looks pretty good in front of the pier.
After I set up I took a little stroll because we weren't quite ready to sound check. This is the second longest wooden pier in the state of California.
There is a seal at the pier entrance next to the veteran memorial.
This is Ted, our sound guy. He's a great gut to work with and does an excellent job. His company is DJE Sound and Lighting.
You know what Mario is doing, right? He's giving Ted some kick drum.
Daniel and Art sound check.
Skip checks his messages while waiting his turn to sound check. Skip won the longest commute today, driving two hours for this gig.
After sound check, some of the lads go around the corner for a slice. Art used to work in this neighborhood and knew all the "in" places.
Skip and I enjoy our slices at a table while Art and Mario head back to the beach.
It was pretty dang good pizza. I got the "deluxe".
After supper we headed back to the stage to put on the show. It was a perfect evening to make some noise.
Skip readies his iPad. Mario got a nice sub-woofer and an 8" QSC monitor.
Kelly readies her setlist and lyrics.
We've got time for a quick amp-selfie before we start the show.
Skip is ready to put on the show. We've got to get him a Scully shirt.
Mario wore his shirt to match his new drum kit.
Daniel and Art are waiting for the announcer to finish.
I'll be back to finish in the next post. Thanks for looking!
Thank you for your indulgence,
