My NYE's gig @ Seizure World

[mwbonsall]

As mcarp555 noted, that's a great move by your keyboard player to "dress" his keyboards in that enclosure. A real pro look.

Nice gig repot. Keep 'em comin' TBers!

Thanks!

Excellent report, Mark!
Great to see you had a NYE gig. Looking forward to many more of your reports in 2019!

Thanks Chris! I post a couple more this season.

Awesome report, Mark! Thanks for sharing!

Happy New Year to you, as well! People have questioned my greeting, 'Happy Chaka-kanaka' for years...

... well, lo and behold, guess who the Grand Marshal was for the 130th Rose Parade...

... none other than...

... Chaka Khan, herself...

... where's those enquiring minds now?

Ha! Thank you Spidey!

Very nice gig .. Those FOH speakers don't look too shabby either... I'd love to get a video ... nice job on the food (don't think I didn't notice that) Good job.

Thanks dbase! I'll try to get some video soon.

I would have taken your rain over the dicey snow road conditions I had to drive in.

Cool report, looks like a fun gig, thanks for sharing.

This is about as bad of winter weather we get, I can live with it. Thank you.

Serious rig Dude.

Thanks, I love it.

Dig that roscoe.

Thank you!

Nice gig report thanks for sharing

You're welcome, and Thanks.

Looks like a great gig. I too have to say very impressed with your rig and bass. Awesome.

It was a great gig. Thanks!

Very nice bass rig!

Thank you!

I like the enclosure too - would have been cool if he went full-on Murph & the Magictones though:

We have tried to get Russ to do that, but he won't budge.

Great pics! Looks like you guys had a great show.

I assume you took the name Midnight Confessions from the old Grass Roots tune.

Terry Furlong, lead guitarist for the Grass Roots and on that track lives here in Prescott.

We did a lounge act together for YEARS! heheheh

Yes, that is where someone years ago stole the name. You guys should come down and sit it with us sometime, that would be awesome!

Nice repot. I'm in Phoenix for a few days, and it's the coldest I've ever felt it this morning. I realize many of you in the Mountain time zone woke up to sub zero this monrning, but for PHX, it's downright chilly.


Oh yah, that rig, some of my favorite things there, b-amp + 2xNV115 + Roscoe. Yeah, that's a great combination for,sure.

Hey Gary, it is about as cold as it ever gets here, dog gone global warming...
I am really happy with this gear, sounds and plays like I want it to.

It's so comforting to see people enjoy themselves while listening to some good music. Thanks for posting and let the good times roll!

Thanks!

Awesome, thanks much for sharing.

You're welcome!

Those peavey delta combos are great amps.

One of my favorites also.

Rick has also worked with some old friends of mine at a Casino in Pinetop, Hoot Hensen, Mike Ballard and Brett Anderson. I hope we can work together someday.Mark

There's a casino in Pinetop? It has been years since I was there... All of you desert dwellers are making me feel a little homesick for the desert.

'Seizure World' Ha Ha...
I knew EXACTLY what you meant; I lived in Phoenix in the 80's.
I remember a politician getting into trouble for saying Seizure world when he was visiting there ...
I guess retirees have no sense of humor... (But I do)

It's just outside of Pinetop, south on the reservation Home - Hon-Dah Resort Casino and Conference Center

I guess it's not as big of a deal now, some of the residents call it that. I meant no disrespect in any way, great place.

I once wrote a bluegrass song called "I'm Pinin' for my Pinetop Sweetheart." I don't think the girl I wrote for was all that impressed.

Lol, yeah, that's what everyone in AZ calls it, including some residents!
