| Vision Expo 2010 Gig is going great! Last night I played the 2 hour catered Lallapalooza Party to about 2,000 well-heeled folks in The Venetian ballroom. SO MUCH FUN!
I got a good work-out Friday night but really didn't break into a sweat, and I play hard. Laughing I love playing to huge crowds on a big stage! They had every beer known to man and liquor too, all free, but I don't drink and just had bottled water, but the food! OMG! It was outrageously good!
Last night we had over 5,000+ at the big outside stage at The Flamingo for the Vision Expo 2010 party. Started at 9 and ended at 1. Sound check was @ 7 sharp.
I just heard from Santinelli (Our producer) last night that we're on at the Hard Rock Cafe in NYC in March!
I used a brand new Yamaha kit last night and it's sure nice to just bring my stick bag and sit and play, no hauling anything...use my drum key to tune at sound check, done!
The I-RocK Band: Great guitarists, bassist, horn section, 4 GREAT female vocalists, (2 lead, 2 backup) 4 male vox (3 lead) and a great vox/keyboardist.
2 hour show and we did stuff like:
Lady Ga Ga, Ethridge, Raitt, Heart, Benatar, Jett, Metallica, D. Leppard, GNR, J. Priest, Sabbath, Cocker, Traffic, T. Petty, Black Crows, ZZ, Doors, Winter, Cream, Foghat, Zeppelin, Billy Idol, Shadows Fall, and a host of others.
Great bunch of players and I'm honored to be part of the band.
Another nice aside from all this is that I've got a couple of offers re: studio work and live gigs.

Just got home tonight and the landing was a bit rough (I think the pilot overshot the runway a tad'. So the stewardess gets on the horn and says "It wasn't the pilot's fault, and it wasn't the airplanes fault, it was the asphalt!"...Clever girl. | | Message posted 591 days ago | IP Logged |
