Hockey Fans in here?

[wingnut]

Wingnut... When I get a paper cut I bleed red and white. You sure could tell the game was in Hab Land, about half the east team was Habs! Makin' the pilgrimage again to detroit in april! Gotta love it, great hockey and great music, all in one town!

Congrats on th gig!
Life Long Leaf fan here, 40 years of frustration!
You want to know how hard it is to be a Leaf fan, just consider for a moment, how hard it must be to chear for a team that hasn't won in 40 years! Heck, it's easy to be a Habs fan!

I guess you'll have to be patient still,..........unless they qualified in extremis.
The week-end was great fun even if the sound wasn't too hapenning in the cans, the worst I ever had,

I think I caught a quick glimpse of you this time.. Playing a left handed 5er with some sort of brown-ish sunburst on the headstock?

Saw PLENTY of shots of the guitar player.. Typical story, no time for the bass player..

Congrats on the gig, though!

Yes that's right.
It was my Fodera NYC I got 2 weeks ago. It was my first gig with it,
I was a bit scared,didn't know how it would cut.

I really think that All star games are very boring. There is nice passing and stuff they only do in practice but Sooooooo boring....
I prefer the Ability contest.

Sly is one of the best bass player in Montreal , and you did a marvelous job there. ( and great teacher too ! )

How cool was that...you get to combine hockey with playing the bass. Can't think of many better combos...at least while keeping your clothes on.

GO DEVILS

I caught some of the game. It was nice that it had an exciting ending as they don't usually play very hard, being that it's friendly and all. I'd hate to be a goalie in these games!

Do you have any pictures of yourself and the house band playing? Where does the band setup in an arena while the playing surface (ice) is being used?

Sorry I don't have any pics I had my hands busy but I think there are some stuff on YT.

The stage was a suspended stage coming from the ceiling in the zone near by the Zamboni entrance. During the openings and players presentation the stage was on the ice. During the first intermission we were suspended above the Zamboni and it was waving alright!

It is the same stage used by The Hives in NY.

105.4 MPH and a 16 yr old record drops!

End of story. Stanley's coming to bean town (knocking on every wooden object in the building with my eyes and fingers crossed)

Sarcastro, I agree when you say go habs go, as you are supreme sarcastic, which means you are pulling for the B's. Excellent.

Whats hockey? Do they ever sell out a venue? My guess is never.

Indeed... try watching the game on Sunday (NBC NHL game of the week). Red Wings vs Penguins. It should be a great game.
