Just got back from the Gaylord Palms in Orlando. A bass player friend of mine from Boston was down with a blues band playing there. The front man was a Boston legend, James Montgomery, harmonica and vocals, and the guitar players were Jon Butcher and Barry Goudreau. Man these guys are great! Got to meet and talk with them for awhile really great dudes. They are playing over there again tomorrow at someplace called Kee Wee Entertainment District. If you get a chance check em out - James Montgomery and Friends.
FYI. Some of us older folks might remember Jon Butcher Axis in the 80's. And in case your not up on who Barry Goudreau is he was the guitarist in the band Boston.
Nice thanks! I have an old 800RB that crapped out on me last year and I'd like to get it fixed for a backup.
Here's a new number:

Never played there, but friends of mine have. It used to be a cigar bar but it has changed since then. Actually my band was looking into that place too. If I find anything out I'll let you know.
Thanks Bob. We actually are booked in there next Friday, I was wondering what the crowd was like and what not. Came about real fast, just last week we were contacted about it. Figured we'd give it a go.
All I've ever heard are good things about Hendrix Sound. I still need to get over there to have him service my 700RBII.
You are playing the 24th? If so, I am too at Sailors Return. We play from 8-11PM. What time do you play? If you go to 1 AM, I'll come see you after loadout. If we get rained out, I'll come and see you earlier.

Only two strings away from an attitude problem.
Well guys - we did it - today we named the [del]baby[/del] band. That was an interesting process, but it's done and the first couple gigs are lined up, so it's all coming together.
I think we're on 9-1 so sure come on down! Be great to meet you. I have no idea what to expect there, so we'll see what we see.

Tat! You got yourself into a band?! That's great! Congrats!!
Thanks! I think this is gonna be fun.
Hey Bob, I don't think you made it over there or at least I didn't run into you. I know the weather was bad Friday. Wasn't much of a crowd in there, but the stage was cool and the people running the place were too.
Maybe next time!
Oh geeze! I totally forgot. As soon as we finished we were told it was going to rain soon. We packed up our hear ASAP. It started raining on us five minutes before we finished, so it wasn't that bad. From all the excitement, I forgot about coming over. Perhaps another time. Sorry. My bad.
Where is everyone at this weekend? We're playing at Grills in Port Canaveral Saturday night, 7:30-11:30. Usually a good crowd there.
No gig this weekend for me. Played the last two weekends so now we have a couple off. We are all original and prefer not to play every weekend anyway.
