[chrisrhoads]

[markjazzbassist]

humbling. i thought playing in front of 2500 was big for me. well i got a long way to go.

nice bass by the way. love the fodera. love the aggie gear too.

 

[Seigi]

[Sean S]

I'm still in the young'en stage...I've played MAX 200 people
I'm still working on it, though!

 

[chrisrhoads]

200 is still a great crowd, have to start somewhere. And I feel you being a youngin i just turned 21 and seems like majority of the bands I play with are in the 30s to50s. Its nice to be the young guy though in my oppinion.

 

[SkeetBeat]

huge crowd!
nice fodera by the way

 

[SBassman]

Congrats. Must have been an amazing experience.

 

[kobass]

I played in front of 50,000 people once.


Then I woke up.



Congrats on the gig, Chris!


Cheers,
Kevin

hope you snuck a few quick wankies in there . let the crowd know you rock.

Sorry man, can I just ask what wankies means? Over here it means something entirely different and entirely hilarious in that context

 

[RWP]

That is WAY cool! Keep it going man, you are one of the few. Oh, nice bass.

Basslicks, noodles, etc. Nothing to do with physical self-gratification.

Sweeeeeet crowd, sweeeeet bass, sweeeeet music. What else does a man need! Well done.

 

[lennyonbass]

OT - did you ever get anything resolved about your stolen basses (from myspace page)?

OUCH!

 

[Munjibunga]

Now this dominates! Congrats on the gig.

OUCH!

Nope a 72 p bass, a custom warrior bass, and an EUB are floating around Houston, or probably Mexico by now. So if you see them feel free to steal them back, you have my permission. Insurance helped but I got low balled on a few things.

 

[B-NoteCowboy]

Man that's awesome!!!

I'm an OSU alum by the way, and our band is out of Tulsa. I totally mean to go to Orange Peel this year (finally got some decent acts on the bill again!!) and unfortunately we had a show in OKC that same night.

Crap I thought ours was big (about 1500) but seein Boone Pickins filled up with people for your gig had to be mind blowing!

Congrats!
