Help Me Rhonda

You're listening to Steve Chestnut play lead guitar using my Lollar pickup-equipped Jaguar through my Music Man 130-212HD.

And on a Kurzweil keyboard for everything, playing through a Quilter MicroPro-200, is our very own John Drysdale (mrmomo).

Thank you very much Roger, Rob_J and Jeff! I deeply appreciate your comments.

I have some post-production comments and observations. All of us never rehearsed together. Some of us practiced or rehearsed in smaller groups, while others had to practice alone. We were supposed to set up the backline the night before, which would have allowed us to run through how to begin and end the songs in the morning. But the hall booked an event until 11 PM for that night at the last minute, and we couldn't set up until Saturday morning. So there was no time to go over anything. This led to some imperfect starts and stops.

I wish there's been time to properly set volumes for all the rhythm guitar amps. I thought setting up the two bass amps for "Good Vibrations" on opposite sides of the stage would sound best, but it meant that John and I had a difficult time playing together, as there were no monitors for our basses. We also should have been louder. But all-in-all, everything turned out rather well. We all had a great time and the audience liked it a lot.

Yes, Frank, we were all having a whole lot of fun. Thanks for the compliment. Grant plays "Fun, Fun, Fun" a bit faster than I was used to, but, amazingly, I kept up and didn't mess up. Whew!

Here's I Get Around.
