Steve & tested out the new Bose L1 Model II at rehearsal tonight--getting a little easier each time we set up, and it's a MUCH easier teardown. We discovered if we mic our instruments we don't even need to add a submixer. We have a couple of new songs to debut (well, one's a new co-write, the other a familiar one we turned into a mash-up/medley) this Sat. night at Grounds For Appeal in Berwyn. (Show's 8-10 pm, but we'll be there about 6:30 to set up and pre-caffeinate). I know I promised CAKE--but for those of you who were hoping to rock out to live electric guitars & trumpet on "Never There," "Short Skirt, Long Jacket," or "M'na M'na," I must apologize--I meant the EDIBLE kind of cake!
Three days away....there's Bears in the air. Hopefully, not to be intercepted by Packers.
New Andina & Rich dates to announce, albeit a bit further out: Hootenanny Cafe featured artists in June on WTBQ, Warwick (Orange County), NY (and an in-studio there on Nov. 4); Paulson House Concert Series, Naperville, IL, July 9. More springing up every day!
