Thanks, I very much appreciate that. Yeah, dynamics are really important to me, and NOTES HAVE ENDINGS (in other words, space)! I'd be embarrassed to tell you how many years I played before I really understood what it took to bring a bass line to life using dynamics and space. :rollno: Well, at least I'm working on it now. Better late than never. :)

Hey Vic, when are you going to post the songs that you sing on?:D You and that Sadowsky of yours sound great!

Man, that Todd sings great and I just love Never Been Any Reason. As soon as I heard I thought of pancakes for some reason.:hiding:

We played a show with Head East last year. Not many original members left. They are some Harmony singing machines, good musicians and put on a good show. They were very good to us.

Honestly, I can sing some backup, but when you have four leads in the band, there's just no need. :)

Vic,

Absolutely Amazing Tone and tight playing. # 4098 is a very special instrument. Its the bass that spoke to me when I played it. I went home and couldnt get it off my mind. That following monday I called Kevin and started my build and I am very satisfied with my decision. Thats my go to bass now. Back to Vic's recording : The vocals in Vic's band are superb, Not only does the Bass sound amazing but the Drums, Keys, Guitar and just the whole mix. WOW. ITB is a great Band.

Hope y'all don't mind another... forgot to post this one originally. Sorry if this is getting annoying. Last one, I promise. :)

MV5 #4098, passive Radial JDI passive DI, no EQ. Sadowsky Blue SS's. Fully blended, single-coils, VTC dropped about 25% or so. Done. :)

Great playing, Vic. Not only is the band tight, you've got a veritable platoon of excellent vocalists. May I have one, please?

Thanks! :)

Yeah, don't think I don't know how lucky I am, either. I mean, I can do ok backup, but I can't sing lead, and this is literally the first band I've ever been in that could totally pull off 4 part harmonies... at least as a 5 piece. If we got together to rehearse more like we keep talking about (*sigh*), we'd be doing justice to Eagles tunes in a big way.

We're in the process of trying to get a real pro class promo pack put together and book a buncha' fancy big gigs next year via IFFA convention in the Capital in January. We've also tossed around the idea of doing a week long gig in some vacation spot for some wealthy resort and kinda' doing a band vacation thing. With all our life schedules, that'll be a big challenge to pull off... long shot, actually... but if we did, it'd be a life memory we'd all cherish forever.

Oh, and if we did, 4098 is most definitely making the trip. :)

That would be a great trip/gig. I was pretty lucky to play for almost 6 years on the coast and spent a whole lot of time in the resort setting. Pretty cool gig for sure.

I have a buddy that did the vacation gig with the band for a 2 week stint........that turned into a 12 year stint :) They went and came back only to get their stuff and return.
