DR dropped by to share vids

The guitard is average at best, and he is, as guitards tend to be, too high in the mix.
I will give you one prop. Your tone is better than your guitard's. He has that over distorted, over processed, solid state, thin crappy guitar tone that I so dislike.

My beef is that the guitarist's wandering around the stage is distracting. Someone should tell "Gramps" to stay put.
 
If you're still around, I will be honest with you DR. Your band is not good. Your playing is not very good. If I came in a bar you were playing at, I'd probably make it through about 3 songs. The music stand SCREAMS amateur. They can at least put lyric sheets on the floor in front of a monitor and not look so horribly cheesy. The girls go way off pitch way too often. Average singers at best. The guitard is average at best, and he is, as guitards tend to be, too high in the mix. The song choices are questionable. There are maybe 4 people alive who want to hear a band play Twilight Zone. You're not the worst band I've ever seen. I've certainly seen worse. But as fair as raising the bar, you raised it to about a $250 a night level in a place where most other local bands refuse to play.

You know, someone called me cruel here a couple days ago.
