Jam night with the Landry amp...

***b-squared*** · 10-08-2008, 09:05 AM

Met up with Billy at one of the local jam nights in STL last night. Great bar/restaurant called the Hwy61 Roadhouse.

Billy brought an amp and 2x12 cab, I brought Red, my R9.

It was an awesome night. The host band was Alvin Jett and the Phat Noiz Blues Band. What a great guy. Always has a smile on his face.

There were a lot of young players, as well--some had their parents there. It was cool to see young players get up there and jam on some blues.

I got up and played a few tunes--the amp was singing. I later got up and grabbed an amp, and we had 4 guitars playing. Everyone got a turn, even the keys/bass/drums. Alvin is a great player, and generously gave everyone a chance to play.

I got up again later with the bass/drums and did a few tunes--cranked it up a bit--wow, what a great sound. Musical feedback just by thinking about it.

Just had to post about it--it was a blast. I think my Tuesdays are going to be taken for awhile!

That's a pretty cool place. I did an acoustic thing there every thursday for awhile. Actually had my rehearsal dinner there...

I think we're going to try and record a few things next time, but I'll also try and get a couple of cheap vid clips done.

I think WB is going to get some better ones.
