Botch. Posted November 2, 2001 Share Posted November 2, 2001 Just got the news this week, my band ( [url=http://www.puddlestone.net]www.puddlestone.net[/url] ) has been hired to play two sets at the upcoming Winter Olympics here in Salt Lake City!! We're doing one set on a stage set up on Main Street, and another set on a stage in front of the Courthouse (Washington Square). These will be outdoor gigs in Utah in February, but at only an hour or so apiece hopefully we can keep our fingers working in the cold. I don't imagine we'll be televised (they save that for the "big name" groups) but I'll repost when I know the schedule. I know I'll never have a record contract, so this is definitely my "15 minutes" coming up and I'm psyched!! Woohoo!!!!

Tedster Posted November 2, 2001 Share Posted November 2, 2001 Sounds great! Hook up a blow dryer to a mic stand and point it at your fingers. Might help a bit... "Cisco Kid, was a friend of mine" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danny M Posted November 2, 2001 Share Posted November 2, 2001 Congratulations! Make sure to tell us how things go. You could probably solve your temperature problem by renting a lot of tube gear and keeping it on stage with you... :D It wouldn't necessarily have to be "Fletcher-grade," as it would only be for the warmth of the musicians, not their signal. :D -Danny Grace, Peace, V, and Hz, Danny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lovesinger Posted November 3, 2001 Share Posted November 3, 2001 Congratulations!! And never play bass in the cold (shivers). Whoever the bassist is should maybe experiment with those handwarmers hunter's use, at least between numbers. -- Music has miracle potential -- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
