Sooo, finally had a full gig last night with the band. We played a pretty small tavern in West Seattle to a happy crowd of about 50 drunken souls.

The lead guy brought his oh-so-sweet Carvin Semi-hollow. Only one serious train wreck that wasn't part of.

What really set things off was this guy came in and asked to sit-in on harmonica. I thought "oh no", but the drummer let him in and it turned out awesome. He wailed on the harp. But then, he pulls out a trombone!

Oh criminy, that was freakin' incredible! Really set off some of out funk tunes. We did some really great jams too. I'll post sound clips after I figure out how to cut up the recording.

And pics.






OK, who farted?

The crappy part was that the venue didn't comp us drinks or food.

And the pay stunk. Not even enough to cover gas.

We had quite a few friends show up, but most of the crowd were older, um, hard-worn folks.

But they really got into the music and we were asked back.
