Well, since the original stuff some of you guys got to see in the recording session videos on here has been rotting on the drummer's hard drive I got pulled into a Black Crowes tribute band scene and gave that a go.
This vid is an HD promo movie on Y-tube, taken from a show we did back in January of this year. We opened for a G&R tribute band and the place was PACKED, been kinda' downhill ever since! ha ha haa I guess it's too soon for Crowes tribute, either that or they're just not big enough to warrant one b/c their fans couldn't care less about somebody doing their tunes it looks like. Most people can't even name 5 Crowes tunes anyway and the rest can't stand an entire evening of Crowes material so I guess we're gonna' let it fizzle and focus elsewhere. Seemed like a good plan at the time

I had the VM going on my side of the stage, went back and forth between my 'Paul copy and custom painted Fender Strat. I had a Gretsch gold-top 'Paul there but the Duncan Antiquity pups (60's mini buckers) I had put in for that gig were just GARBAGE and squealed/howled even with me standing a good 15' from my rig with my back turned to the cabinet. We've watered down to just a variety cover band now doing mostly classic and some modern stuff but I swear, every time a club calls and wants to book the Crowes tribute out of nowhere it's like "Ugh, really? You sure you want that?" ha ha haaa
