Limited Sets FTW- Hamer Content

[diablo175]

Despite having the aggregate gear, talent and work ethic of a legit, gigging band, my current line up won't or can't do legit 3 set-gigs. Instead, we have to settle for 1 set opening slots with other bands, featured set appearances or 3- 4 song sets at open mics. 

It ain't so bad.  True, we don't get paid BUT load in/load out is stupid simple, my gear can be carried in one trip and doesn't break my back, PA & sound is always provided,  I am in no danger of forgetting parts to 3 - 8 songs and I'm in and out and home in +/- 1.5 hours and get a full good night's slumber.  Win.

Did an open mic last night where we followed the house band and got to do 4 songs, all of which featured my C3- Checkered Cali Custom. Behold...

I thought Jim bought new sets of shorts for gigs...

Nope but our vocalist does wear shorts to most of our appearances. The HFC Attire Police have not yet shown up to make arrests or write tickets.

Changing "Short" to "Brief" is even worse for those of us who misread and think it's about stage attire.

That sounds like a personal, reading comprehension problem.   

How about now? 😆
