BLOG Entry - 2009 April (Saturday 4th)



April is turning out to be a busy month already. I just got back from a Pug Mahones gig in Bendigo at 5:30 am this morning and are now trying to figure out what I have to do for the rest of the day.


Well one thing for certain....with an increase in bass students over the last few months I need to spend some more time working out tunes that students have requested.


I have to apologize for the photo, this was taken on-stage at Pug Mahones...notice the steel door behind me...this actually goes onto the street meaning that you can drive your car up and load gear directly onto the stage....awesome.


NB. On a serious note - last night was the first night I have worn my ear plugs for some time...they are a bit weird in that you feel separated from the band whilst playing, but my ears dont ring after the gigs (well not any more than they do already)...so this is something I would highly recommend as once your hearing is damaged it cannot be repaired....dont find out the hard way like me :-)
