b3_john Posted March 29, 2007 Share Posted March 29, 2007 Your premise is faulty. Anyone buying the farm deserves to do their final gig with a real B-3 and Leslie 122. 'Nuff said. John GP sacred cow of the year: Jimmy Vaughan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chaso DeChaso Posted March 29, 2007 Share Posted March 29, 2007 Most of us on this message board would spend our last day unable to choose, endlessly debating which was best, perhaps even pondering what is due at next year's NAMM show... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Horne Posted March 29, 2007 Share Posted March 29, 2007 You'll probably have to load in through the kitchen just like always but the load out will kill you. You might as well take the B I once worked a job in the US where the stage was only 20 feet of so from the main entrance. The maître d' told me to go through the kitchen. It was pouring and the kitchen was up a ramp and completely in back of the restaurant. I very nicely told him to go f*** himself and came through the front door. As I recall the bride was a royal pain in the ass and tried to control everything to include the tunes I was to play for the cocktail hour. She sent me a list of tunes that were acceptable to her. It was pouring outside and the list was in my car. I politely told her I forgot the list and played tunes from the 'Great American Songbook'. Boy, I don't miss weddings. If I knew I were going to die tomorrow I'd max every credit card and buy keyboards for all my friends. No guitarists were harmed during the making of this message. In general, harmonic complexity is inversely proportional to the ratio between chording and non-chording instruments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legatoboy Posted March 30, 2007 Share Posted March 30, 2007 [font:Arial Black]Sorry Jazzdoc52, I got alittle carried away. Really an XK3![/font] A HS XK-3 with no lower manual just midied to the piano for the L.M. and two Leslie 31H Tall Boys w/a Yamaha C7 Grand Piano midied to a Roland MKS-20 (rig set up in a V configuration!), (MKS-20 run through a 'Pignose' for that Jon Lord piano sound mixed with the miked C7 signal!) (I'd play this rig - Drunk Only, my Drunk Only Rig! With a picture of Jimmy Smith and one of Nicky Hopkins on the Leslie in 2 big frames - Cyanide capsule in a little glass container with alittle mallet hanging on it on the piano top) - OR - A CX-3 (ver 1 of course )into two 200W Marshall Stacks ( in stereo) and an old Hapinstill stage piano from the 70's. . . .thru a Hi-Watt 200W stack (just for some diversity)! (I'd play this rig on two hits of Double Barrel Sunshine Only (pure with no speed to mess things up) - My Sunshine Only Rig, also a bottle of Peppermint Schnapps - 'The Cosmic Rig'! WITH a picture of Virgil Fox in his underwear smoking a big Spliff on the Leslie and one of Horowitz with his mouth around a tallboy bottle of Rheingold Beer (I have sworn never to discuss this!) Again, Cyanide capsule in a little glass container with alittle mallet hanging on it on the piano top) http://www.kirkorgan.com/fox-fox.jpg was Virgil Fox a Mason or somethin! If I'm gonna 'Go' I wanna be remembered as someone who always 'Did It Up Right' right till the end! As you know "Creditability washes off like Soap Bubbles in a Soap Opera!" lb 'Again, sorry about this, it is Friday again'! A XK-3 and a real Leslie for a Cloan. But really if it was my last day on earth, a B3 and 2 Leslies and a CP300 would be fine! Come to think of it a 9ft Steinway! These are my Roadies: Arbrust and Stanley http://photo.net/bboard-uploads/006ble-15443284.jpg Roady bio's: Arbrust is pictured here saying his name in traditional Arbruzian fashion with his head through a horse coller as is customary in his culture. 'Arbruuuuuuust' he is saying, 'Arbruuuuuust' as his name in his culture means 'Plow Horse'. Stanley is the wayward son of a wrestling gypsy clan that I have taken in as my son, he claims he is related to Dejango Reinhardt and has bragged that his farther actually slapped Stephane Grappelli across the face for inappropriately refering to his mother as 'That Fat Gypsy Broad'! http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/1/14/Django9.jpg/200px-Django9.jpg They will remove my body from the stage, as they are trusted men, I affectionately refer to them as 'The Slow Motors'!
