FINALLY
- my band just got booked for a Halloween party gig - but still with the caveat of things being ok with pandemicmania. One hour set with two other bands, but appears we'll be last to perform (headliners! 
) Something to look forward to! Fingers crossed.

FINALLY
Kind of a fitting date for a 2020 gig. Got an orange amp?
I know, right? But hey, I'll take anything we can get! Small festival type setup on about 4-5 acres - bandstand setup is to be on open end of a barn, so covered in case of bad weather. Family/kid friendly event during the day and older folk with adult beverages in the evening. 1st band at 3pm, 2nd band at 6pm and we play at 9pm - DJ in between sets. I'm jazzed as it's been sometime since I played a set in front of live people!
Heck, at this point, I'll play in front of dead people! 
No, but I know someone who does?
And it's quite the "terror"! 
Nice! Wish I could go see, but it's a heck of a drive.FINALLY

b, congratulations, that’s the best news we’ve gotten here since...well, it’s been a long time. That schedule is primo, especially if the weather is nice.
So tell us what weaponry you plan on bringing to the gig. I’m assuming PA support. What ya thinking?
No, but I know someone who does?
Hmm...in a previous life I was playing an Orange amp and it was Terror-able! Right now, the Stage 800 is being used for some gospel and bluegrass numbers I’m working on. Actually played for an hour before bed last night and enjoyed it very much.
I'll be sporting the Jazz and the Precision - through my Rumble stack!
There will be PA we will utilize but we won't know much about it until day of event. We are a true "jam band", but may have a guest singer join us for some cover tunes (SRV, David Allen Coe, and even a couple Rush tributes!) We're just keeping our fingers crossed that it can proceed as planned!
What's your fav settings for those genres?
Hey folks! I miss ya’ll tons. I’m in between taking our the garbage and writing names on popsicle sticks (don’t even ask) and thought I’d reply to b’s query. Keep the club rolling everyone, you’re doing great!
b, I currrntly am using an acoustic setting that with the Rogue, sounds double bassy. I also have to give s shout out for my British Clean (Hiwatt) because it can do no wrong if you’re looking for clean and full. I’ve enjoyed the TV amp with a 15, but the P doesn’t dig it as much. I’m thinking of an additional set of presets just for the Precision. It’s a different animal in the kids and my settings for the the jazz and Violin bass don’t always jive.
Please allow us all to live vicariously through on the night of your gig.

Seems to me that some basses get on with some amps better than others is a ripe topic of which I know nada.
That’s great, GP. Here, I was gonna joke that bhendrix should check their road cases for you hiding in one of them. Now you sound like you’ve got a little public playing time. Tell us how it goes when (not if) it happens!
We played the local Legion the weekend everything closed done in Canada. Who knew? Anyway, that should be fun!
