We did ours at the Hard Rock Cafe on the Saturday. My God, did we have a WHALE of a time. The proceeds and donations go to a fund to help kids orphaned by SARS. You can read about it at Tommy's site via our link...

Meantime, the lighting was not as good as 48th street so these pics are crap - will post more when I get em off John's or Colin's cameras.

And here are some from the previous night at 48th Street. I tell ya there's some energy here, its a great band, and we're enjoying the music. That's the way it ought to be, int it??

Cheers!

Ron, Seismic, Rod! Thanks so much! :kizz

Yeah, when I'm enjoying myself and the audience is great, I can't stop grinning hehehe.

Chris! yes, some infocus shots would be wonderful hahahaha. Although god knows what I'd look like in infocus shots! I love the shot of Colin against the HR logo. Maybe it would lose its charm if it were in focus! hahahahahaha

Yes, we played after King Lychee's ONE song. Mysteriously, when they started playing the base amp blew, they were not satisfied with the alternative, packed up and left. Ron T the got the base amp wired up through the keyboard amp, and did some other stuff, till it worked to John's satisfaction, and we started on time. I'd never heard King Lychee before.

Most of the tables in front and immediately to the side of the stage were occupied, and they STAYED! I even got some response and laughs... that's always good! hehe. Two Tonnes played after us.

All in all it was a great weekend. We play the Wanch this Friday.

Where's GAVIN?? He promised to show up!

Cheers

MIKE BURN

The pictures are a bit digital.....

...but they DO have athmosphere though

I like them! Good to see that you have fun!

Not bad, really. Reminds me somehow for a MTV unplugged session

This one is a good 'action' pic...

What are you searching there? :lol

Suggestion: The next time you play in a club with bad lighting, don't use a digital camera... use a "normal" one instead, disable the flash, set the film sensibility to 800ASA but put in a 400ASA film. You may be surprised.

Yeah, none of us ever stay still. Often I get off stage and harass the audience and jump up and down. I need to get a good cordless mike. I love my SM 57 - only used the Beta 87A once cause of the need for phantom power. How much can one expect to pay for a cordless SM 57? Its like my mike for all seasons

Colin and John both have cordless guitars and they have been known to wander around, even OUTSIDE the venue, to check out the sound from the road, hehehehe.

As for Harold, if he could leap off his drums, he would - he's that much fun to watch.

In some venues the monitors are right in front of you, effectively restricting movement. Tut.

The guys I play with are seriously good musicians. I mean, seriously. Its FANTASTIC when you have a tight band anticipating each other, listening, emoting, and just all in all appreciating each others talents. I really love listening to each of them individually, feeding off the energy and enjoyment. It's great.

Have a great day
