A band with 2 albums out needs a PSG player,
for tours and intermitant work based in London UK.
Doubling on Keyboards is prefered, but other instruments considered, cello works too.
They have lap-steel and debutant PSG player on albums,
you play his licks... unless you can do better...(they hope you can)
If you fit in well, you most likely will play on next album too.

I met Al at our gig last night here in Thailand,
he played some tamborine, and clearly was a real player.
Yeah I could tell from just the tamborine!
The bar manager "likes to play" tamborine... we tolorate it.
But suddenly... WHOA, who's playing now??
It was Al, nice guy, we talked and I mentioned I played steel...
his eyes lit up.. So now here's his contacts.
Let me know if something works out.

Hi Ted.
Well I moved here in June, to take a gig,
and also for the general mental and physical health benifits.
Not likely to be rowing up there for Oct... Next year maybe.
I will be playing a big blues festival here at same time,
even thought we aren't really a blues band,amoung other gigs .
Popping back into France for a long week in about 10 days,
to close on the house there, and back here for a gig that friday.
Al from the above ad was on vacation down here, not sure if he's back to the UK yet.[This message was edited by David L. Donald on 29 July 2005 at 02:08 AM.] |

Hi one last bounce for the band needing a steeler.
Jim
I HAVE moved here, been playing steady bass gigs for 2 months. Plus did a guine pig band gig for 2 days for a class of live sound engineers.
One Empad system (ex-Meyer tech) and one Myer Sopund system,
set up either / or, or together... WAY cool!!
I did a 40 minute bass and drums duet through 35,000w rms....
Nothing quite feels like that!
Plus I was the guy on stage directing the engineers how to make a band VERY happy on stage, and they really understyanding and responding well to the whole concept.
You make the onstage sound perfect and the band can make magic, which in turn makes the front of house mixers job MUCH easier.
Also going to do some celtic stuff with Djembe drummer with a great japanese guitarist friend of my band's.
Now I just need my steels and strudio stuff to get down here in Sept.
I will try to make Dallas this year, casn't do St Louis this year... gigging tooo much.. ( so sad, right)
Ok onward
DD

Hi CB.
Been busier than a one armed paperhanger,
or a one legged guy in a butt kicking contest.
But that's good. |
