And a "drummer with bass" pic. (That'll confuse some people.)
Looking good Mike!

Looking good Mike!
OK, so I played hockey tonight (very poorly I might add) but in the meantime by brother-in-law forwarded the recordings from our jam on Saturday. I promised to post them.
I will say these are very much under-rehearsed but there are some good qualities to parts of them so I will keep my word. First and foremost, my MapleGlo Rick through my Ampeg head and Mesa cabs sounds freaking awesome to me in Mony Mony. I am also singing some back-up in there. While it is easy to play, the tone is really cool.
96 Tears, this was the first time we'd done it with a keyboard. Our lead guitar took it on herself to learn that and she nailed the tone.
Then there is Venus. It sounds flat as hell. We have done this in a show before but have not really played it in about a year and a half and that shows. It will be better. So here is your intro to a rehearsal by the "Life After Forty" band.

Your local cool. I am in Deland. Any time you want to just check some out get in touch.
Did somebody say, "Shoes"? What did you buy?
And you are amassing quite the collection of basses, Tat.
I wish I could remember what a quiet house sounded like! Or to have the bed all to myself... LOL
If I had the house to myself for awhile, I would play my bass SO LOUD, it would rattle everything!
Jackie may drive back from Chicago tonight. The house is too big for me and the dogs alone. She has been in Chicago or Richmond more than she has been home since December.
Of course the dogs make sure this place isn't quiet, and I do rattle the china with my bass.

Like the singers voice along with the whole sound of the band. Couldn't get the 96tears song to come up.
Playing hockey. Lucky. It's been so warm here lately, our pond is melted. No skating at all

That's when you really want an amp that goes to "11"
I hope I never have the bed all to myself again, it was terrible!

My wife works swings, so I go to bed without her but sleep lightly until she gets home. I don't like sleeping alone (the cat doesn't count).
I had a lackluster practice session yesterday. A lot of it stems from that our second guitarist wasn't there.

Our singer has really good pipes. The mix in these is not perfect because it comes from just a hand held recorder placed in the room. It's not picking up quite everything but for our purposes it works.
Weird. I wonder if it was a trademark thing and they took it down. I reuploaded just in case. Here it is. There's a bit of warm-up/sound check/goofing around banter at the start. It might also be a touch slow.

Oh yeah and the hockey was at an indoor artificial rink. Weather does not matter though last night would have been fine outdoors here.

Only two strings away from an attitude problem.
This link shows "preparing for transcoding. Updates will be pushed once your track is ready."

Nothing yet. I still haven't finished looking through everything on the website. But if I buy, it'll be something today since the coupon expires tonight.
Thanks!

I still can't get 96 tears to play, but I really liked the other two. If you guys sound this good from a little hand-held recorder, I can only imagine what it's like through the board.
One more try. I think I figured it out. Gmail picked up the confirmation email as spam so I had not confirmed the track yet.

The keyboard was this little tiny mini-synth. Not the kind where you push a button to get a sound. One of the ones where you mess around with a bunch of dials to get the sound you want. She really got this one dialed in.
Still doesn't come up. Do you have it set as private? If so, you either need to change it to public or post the private link.
Yea, it's difficult to get any rest until you know your wife is home safe and sound. I've found I can't sleep if the cell phone isn't on the nightstand. Get to worried about anyone that's not home.
Strange winter for sure. I got to skate in an indoor rink a few times. Have a friend who lives in Santa Rosa (north of San Francisco). It's owned, or was owned, by Charles Shultz, the guy who drew the Charlie Brown cartoons.
