music in the shed

I met my wife in the Tucson club scene of the 1980’s. Giant Sand was there, but had grown out of the small bars and clubs even then. Howie did sit in occasionally with other bands. Another local luminary at the time was George Hawk and his band Los Lasers, they ruled the bars back then. I got to know them quite well and usually went to their after parties on Saturday and Friday nights. I have some cassettes of a full show back in the storeroom.

Dandy Warhols do acoustic very well to my ear and mind remainders. Have the ( bought used in 1976 ) 1974 Ovation 1115 12 slot head, and gal singer lined up for "Used to be friends" and SYGGO for local open mic... best part being it is achievable for the lesser thans like myself.

Cure, other voices for me, obvious why, the preferred electric bass tone here also, ala John Entwistle the pioneer, clobbered to zero mids, UK Rotosound RS66LD, none better in the day.

Music related question- watching an orchestra the other day, does the guy who plays the triangle get the same money as the violinist?

According to information gleaned from the `net ..........( facts , thoughts , and peoples general opinions ) ........... then it all depends ........

A triangle player may have other duties ( multi tasking ) as a percussionist ........ experienced percussionists may earn more than a newly hired violinist ......

Everyone needs a bass player , so double ( or upright ) bass players do quite well ..... ( maybe time to dust off that tux , Jon ..... :) ..... ) ....... but guitar players for example , or anyone who plays an instrument which may not feature so much , or be in so much demand , may not do quite so well ......

..... ( maybe ) .................

The Golden Cups do a version of Billy Roberts " Hey Joe " ..........

Formed in Japan during the mid `sixties after hearing rock and roll being broadcast from an American military base ......... A fire during one of their performances in 1971 destroyed all their possessions and equipment ........ They then disbanded , and that was the end of that .......... shame .......

........ Although there was a re union in 2003 , and a few dates played subsequently .........

This goes on a bit , but the bass playing , by " Louis " Kabe , is mental ..... ( in a good way .... ) ..........
