The Burnsville Band played to an enthusiastic crowd last night at Patricks II, San Diego's blues club where we perform twice a month, Its one of the coolest place where you can meet the most diverse people on any given night because its in the gaslamp district and tourists come from all over the world to visit San Diego, and Patrick's is such a well known bar for having great bands 7 nights a week, right in the heart of downtown. so you never know what you'll get. Last night was really fun the mojo was workin the band was cookin and we were having a great time, the place was packed most of the night and the dance floor was at capacity, well actually the whole place was a dance floor there were people dancing outside. The band was ON last night, and when the crowd is really into the music, the energy between us and the people is clickin, it's the feeling that us musician live for. The feeling to turn on people with the music you are creating is really awesome, its kinda unexplainable. Why else would we shlep our gear around town ? its not for the money however, the little bit we do get is greatly appreciated and it dose help. Even though, sometimes on a low night we try to play as if the room was filled, it really makes a huge difference when some people come through the door, a shift of energy occurs and its like we are communicating with the people in a different language. It's just awesome and I feel very fortunate to have the ability to play and sing my heart out.
During a break, I had a lady come up to me and say how much she enjoyed the music and how great she thought i was, she hadn't seen us in a while but was sure glad she did, and then she gave me a hugg. I was very flattered, I mean you gotta love that, there's that feeling again and I wasn't even playing. Its connecting with people on a level that most don't get to experience. When I was leaving to get my truck to load out I was walking and a guy yells at me, Hey! aren't you the guitar player in that band at Patricks? I said yes, He asked me, What kind of pedals I do you use? i am a guitar player too, You have killer tone. so I eplained to him what I was using and brings up this point . MY AMP ROCKS ! because of Tim Pinnell at Top Gear Pro Shop In La Mesa,www.topgearguitars.com Who has customized my 74 Twin Reverb with a half Power switch, and a got rid of the push pull master volume, and put three push pull boosts on the low, mid and highs, and the channel volume gain is magic. so it has been turned into a really versatile sweet amp at low or high volume. Clean vintage Fender or the Marshall or together as one. I like the together as one, just like the people and the vibe tionight.
