Got a call a little while ago from my guitar instructor. This guy
plays everything from classical to zydeco, and is very good. Well, his
rock band is playing a local club, told me to come by, and oh, don't
forget your guitar, it's time I got you to play to a crowd!!!! Now,
I've played quite a few years, have taken lessons a lot, and then
practiced alot, but I just never got comfortable with thinking I was
good enough to play with a DECENT band, kinda shy about it. He thinks
I'm good enough, so I'm going and I'm STOKED.

Playing with a band is much different than playing in a lone situation
and practicing.

You might get some stage fright. But that's OK, pretty soon you'll get
a groove with the rest of the band and it all works out well. can be
quite a rush actually. then you'll get the fever to be in a band
yourself.

Knock, em dead!

Yeah, that's why I've not done it, it's SO much different than sitting
in my bar/studio! By the way, I'm doing Mary Jane's Last Dance (Petty)
and Straight to Hell (Drivin' and Cryin') Good thing is, I know all of
the band pretty well. Thanks for the encouragement, I'll let you know
how bad I fall on my face!

Eh, you'll do OK. But unless they're a really great cover band, you'll
find that playing along to a cd is a whole lot different than live.

This is a phrase our bad says right before we start a gig. The guitar
guy grabs the mic and announces that "all mistakes are intentional. It
keeps you (the crowd) on your toes!"

If you screw up, you screw up. Don't think a thing about it you could
lose your whole mindset. . pick back up and Keep playing ....

I'm confident you'll have a blast.

The good thing is that when he's not teaching a class, he'll call and
I'll go over and jamb with him because the store where he teaches
nights is just down the street.

Man, all I can say is try to be on the stage as close as you can while
they play the first set or two. Once you get behind the monitor,
everything sounds like something you never heard before in your life..
I know, I used to do a lot of "walk on" singing for different friends
bands... ;) I remember one trip to Flatt Street in VT. They started
playing Limelight by Rush and I was asking "what the hell are you all
playing as the intro was going on". The guitarist leaned over and
said, "oh, we tune down a half step for our singer, didn't we tell
you!?".. Got into it about the second verse.. Tom Sawyer and, Spirit
of the radidio went a little better.. The thing was Billy Squire and
his band had finished a gig in Brattleborough and were in the house, I
was pretty nervous.. During a break, the bass player from Squire came
up and said, "good catch" but it did not make me feel much better... ;)

I remember taking trumpet lessons from a guy that played for the Boston
Pops. He told me the mark of a good musician is one who makes mistakes, but
keeps on playing like the score was written that way.

Cool! Fear is a great motivator, but it can turn into focus, instead. Keep
looking around for signals from the other players, and keep your ears open.
It'll go fine.

I'm working with a singer who's new to this band thing. Got her on stage in
front of a big crowd on Tuesday night. First song was a little shaky. The
second song sounded like she'd been singing it for years.

The VG99 is a guitar modeling processor. It can duplicate the sounds of
many different types of guitars and guitar amps.
In other words, you can make a Peavey sound like a Fender or Les Paul. It
also lets you simulate the sound of unique amps and has many different
"effects" It's a professional level piece of gear.

The GR-20 is a guitar synth. It can produce the sampled sounds of many
different instruments .... sax, piano, trombone, etc. and allows you to play
the sound by itself or mixed with the regular guitar pickups of your guitar.

It also allows the guitar to be used as a midi controller. In other words,
if you connect it to a keyboard and play the guitar, the keyboard will also
play, using it's own voice synth.

He'd have got his scrawny ass kicked about 2 seconds into it!
By the way, I did pretty damned good! Played four songs, including
shared lead on Sweet Home Alabama!

The good ones hit harder. I've got a 67 mph fastball.


67?

that's...fast?


Apparently it is to him! I did pretty good last night after I got used
to the monitors being set up the way the band had them. Four songs
including part of the lead on Sweet Home Alabama.

So what are the differences between that and the Orchestron I noted
yesterday, besides the price?


----------------------------------------


The VG99 is a guitar modeling processor. * It can duplicate the sounds of
many different types of guitars and guitar amps.
In other words, you can make a Peavey sound like a Fender or Les Paul. * It
also lets you simulate the sound of unique amps and has many different
"effects" *It's a professional level piece of gear.


The GR-20 is a guitar synth. *It can produce the sampled sounds of many
different instruments .... sax, piano, trombone, etc. and allows you to play
the sound by itself or mixed with the regular guitar pickups of your guitar.


It also allows the guitar to be used as a midi controller. *In other words,
if you connect it to a keyboard and play the guitar, the keyboard will also
play, using it's own voice synth.

Man, I got to get out more;) I am just starting to read up on the
different stuff, it just blows me away. Right now I really need to get
some exposure to musicians and see what's out there.. But hey, it's
friday night and *I got my Boss DS1 so there will be noise tonight:O- Hide quoted text -

Good going.
I get nervous playing alone.

How'd you feel playing in a live gig situation? intimidating at first,
but confident later?

All in all, it was fun wasn't it?

Did you do electric or accoustic?

No, I've enver been hit by a 67 mph tomatoe. as far as throwing faster
w/out dislocating my shoulddr, heck yes. I used to throw in the 90's
in a church league baseball team, till I crushed my wrist in an
unrelated accident 10 yrs ago. Haven't played since. I can still throw
a ball, but not w/ any accuracy.

For an old geezer, it is. Clocked with radar. Can you throw faster
without dislocating your shoulder? Never said I was a pro, just
stating a fact.
Ever been hit by a 67mph tomatoe?

You've never seen the size of our tomatoes. No comparison to a puny
baseball.

Probably not, Don. But then again, I've never seen much future or need
in lobbing beefsteak tomatos.

Hey, geetar players.. wish me luck. Today I am going to try to set up
the intonation on my schaller roller bridge. New strings the other
day, just read about how to do it on another group. Sounds easier than
I thought. Going to tune on the 5th and 17th frets to start. I will
let you know how it goes;)
