Some Gig Pics to get us through no gig time

2017 ish.
 
we actually played a real gig last weekend, vegas is back baby! We played Gilley's at Treasure Island on the vegas strip, they didn't advertise and didn't want us to either as wanted everything on the down low as they were just reopening that day. No bull riding, no food just drinks, tables socially distantly spaced, and couldn't go to the bar you had to have a Gilley's girl get your order, and they wanted us 'semi acoustic' as not to encourage dancing (they even had an X on the stage floor where we were to set up 6ft apart). But it was a great turnout both days, my wife captured some video of us doing some new songs we learned and even a new original in this little montage, hope you enjoy it! Also we're booked this coming weekend in Lake Havasu AZ so looks like things are coming around!

 
Hi Andy,

we actually played a real gig last weekend, vegas is back baby! We played Gilley's at Treasure Island on the vegas strip, they didn't advertise and didn't want us to either as wanted everything on the down low as they were just reopening that day. No bull riding, no food just drinks, tables socially distantly spaced, and couldn't go to the bar you had to have a Gilley's girl get your order, and they wanted us 'semi acoustic' as not to encourage dancing (they even had an X on the stage floor where we were to set up 6ft apart). But it was a great turnout both days, my wife captured some video of us doing some new songs we learned and even a new original in this little montage, hope you enjoy it!

I finally got around to listening to this, very nice! "Someday when we aren't six feet apart" seems like a nice country song.

If things don't open up any more we'll be doing the same acoustic, easy listening sets on the 4th of July weekend. Chip wants to have us out and we want to get out. We'll have to tweak our set lists but I'm actually looking forward to it. Maybe I'll get a chance to play the Ubass that @G19Tony gave me. That'll be a treat.

Hopefully I'll get to see you guys soon. Take care.


Thank you for your indulgence,

BassCliff
