I couldn't tell if it was Billy Cox, Noel Redding or Fisherman Bob playing bass.

And I was half expecting to hear Foxy Lady, right after the Hey Joe break.

(Just bustin your chops Bob)

Sound wasn't too great but for a small video camera not too bad. Could have been from an I-phone...

Dammit Bob, first they cut your head off and second, I can't hear you. Frickin' guitar players all the same, you hear them all over the place and the band starts sounding like the White Stripes and the poor bass player is chugging away without being heard.

The dynamics are there, I mean, I would have got up front and did my Woodstock hippy dance, just tell Elvis or the sound guy to turn him down.

It probably sounded better there. It probably is the camera's mic unable to pick up that frequency.

I thought my bass was TOO LOUD at the show, BOOMING. The sound man was reverb happy. You can't hear much on the Youtube vid but you could hear it LIVE for sure.

Thats awesome, that guitar player you got hooked up with is a hot rod! I ussually dont make it all the way thru Voodoo CHild when I see a band doing it but I listened all the way thru.

Sounding good Bob, especially you and the drummer but I have to be honest: I don't care for the music of Hendrix when it's not played on a Strat. The tone just isn't there. Your guy's a good player for being young but he needs to go study those riffs a little more. Just my opinion, keep rockin!

Didn't wanna mention....but singer is spot on on the first tune....Something happened with "The Man"...He's singing it completely out of key.. Maybe the monitors weren't working??... Otherwise...you guys seem like you're just gonna tighten up and get better within time...just tell the vocalist to concentrate on the key.. His guitar playing is right in the pocket with the genre you're playing.... Wish that kinda stuff would go over in my neck of the woods but there's no money to be made doing that stuff here....and you know me, I'm in it for the $$ :lol: :lol:

Now I hear why you use the term "POWER!" You guys are putting your own personal feelings and sound into the songs and that is the way it should be. I just wish I was there to give it the WHOO HOOOOO HELL YA!

Long Live the 3 Piece!

You guys rocked it pretty good there Bob. Especially for a new band.
The singer will get better with time and practice. Get that drummer a beer he's stiff as a board... but steady and true :wink:

I keep seeing you wearing a long African gown and cap for some reason. Would be pretty cool for stage presence I guess 8)

"African gown", that's funny! :lol: My "African gowns" are actually oversized fishing shirts and I usually wear a baseball cap. The one at the Battle was a Cabellas hat. Cabellas should be a corporate sponsor...
