It's been a while since I have penned an email. I thought it was time
to chime in again. BUT FIRST, here is our gig info for this coming

So we are invited to play an outside gig at a great little ice house
in Houston. It was a good show and it reminded me of all the changes
we have had to make to play at certain venues over the years. I wanted
to share a moment so you can enjoy a chuckle of what happens on stage,
sometimes. (As well as how I am apparently handled with a delicate
hand by our management)
I mentioned that LBP has handled a ton of changes over the years,
members coming and going, and playing songs vs. all improvised music
vs. covers. Big gigs with huge response and audience participation to
intimate gigs where you can hear a pin drop. We have always been able
to adapt to the changes and smile doing it. One thing has been
consistent, loud, in your face, GUITAR!!!
So when a club says turn it down, it's always directed at someone
else. When a club says turn it down 5 times in 10 minutes, it must be
because the drums are too loud or maybe the bass is the problem. When
we are asked for the 7th time in 20 mins, Tyson pops up from the crowd
to discuss it with us on stage. He looks at everyone, says a few
positive motivational words. Explains that we need to do as they wish
so we can come back, (FYI, next time will be acoustic), and finally
looks at me with puppy dog eyes and says "I hate to say it man but it
really is the guitar that's too loud."
Nope, he must have been crazy that night….I mean, who has ever heard
of a guitar player setting his amp too loud?……..it must have been the
drums. (ouch!)
