pictures of the band wearing stetsons may help..

Bailey would be a nice choice as well.

 

[MCF]

That would look great on stage.

Yes it would. I’m serious. Go for it.

 

[JIO]

Hah! Isn't he in biz to sell?

 

[JIO]

Go more Bluegrass. You won't need no stinkin' drummer.

Point taken, but washboard is more common in Zydeco or folk blues maybe than Bluegrass. Come to think of it, I don't recall ever seeing a Bluegrass band with a washboard. It's really cool in a Zydeco band.

want me to ask?

 

[JIO]

want me to ask?

no no no... it's just curious that it has been there for decades... more of a gallery than a showroom.

Yes, washboards are sometimes used in bluegrass music as a handheld percussion instrument. They are often used along with other percussion instruments like spoons and egg shakers. Washboards and spoons can add a clicking beat to bluegrass music.

Speaking of which - Chuck, my girlfriend and I will be up in your area (Monterey) from the 15th to the 21st of November. Any chance we can catch one of your gigs? If so, if anyone else wants to join in, we could possibly make a mini GTG out of it. I’ll even bring up some interesting basses if ya’ll want.

Great news George! Will be here, let me check the gig calendar as many come up with little notice. Flying out to NE on the 23rd for Thanksgiving week to visit family so, this could totally work..

That bass was there, we played it.
I know i did.

I don’t think I did, but I remember you being into it!

All this Bullock talk reminds me we had a heavy rock band in the early 70s called Buffalo. They even got picked up by Vertigo record label, like Sabbath & Quo.

This Chuck Berry cover is from 76, when they tried to be more approachable and commercial and had lineup changes. Notably a very toned down album cover. Rose Tattoo’s Pete Wells is on Bass, Dave Tice remains as singer.
