That explains the big smile!
Where’s the gig? Looks kinda like the little restaurant on the Santa Cruz beach beach between the arcade and the pier.

A couple of quick shots from the our courtyard. Will get some better shots another time.

Gotta love those Anniversary birds, such a unique finish. I even put Optima Gold Rounds on mine to complete the gold look and they sound great.

not when you have to deal with festival traffic/parking, last thing I need is to haul an SVT….
I don’t mind going DI when the sound folks (these guys are tops, work with them pretty often) know what they’re doing…
It's good when you know what you're getting- when it's good. But I'd Run at the Hot Gates to plug in my Fender tube amp. I'm just kinda 'not right' that way. :)

So I made sure to be home today because FedEx was scheduled to deliver my T'bird...just got an email saying it will be Sunday. Well thats just dandy since I will be gone all day, we have tickets to see Gov't Mule. So probably won't see the bass till Tuesday.
Sorry to hear that. There's lot's of non-love for FedMess here.
Enjoy the Gov Mule show! That will be fantastic.

Seems to be pretty SOP for FedEx these days.....:rollno:
 
I lived in Santa Cruz from '81-'90. The Loma Prieta earthquake sent me packing. I miss the live jazz outside of the Cooper House everyday.
Spent a lot of my San Jose high school years bumming around that city along with Watsonville and Carmel. Live just north of Los Angeles now but still make it up to the Santa Cruz area a few times a year. Will probably swing by SC on my way home from Bodega Bay in a week and will probably stay in SC or Monterey wile I’m up in Salinas for the Rodeo next month, and we normally go up for at least one of the Bands on the Beach series during the summer, plus the Concours at Pebble Beach. Lots of fun things to do in that area. Chuckys in a little slice of heaven there.
