diablo175 Posted May 14 Posted May 14 (edited) 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... Edited May 15 by diablo175 11 Quote
bry4321 Posted May 14 Posted May 14 Great post and pics even though I clicked the thread title thinking it would be about a band called "Short Sets." 🤫 1 3 Quote

mrjamiam Posted May 15 Posted May 15 Changing "Short" to "Brief" is even worse for those of us who misread and think it's about stage attire. 6 Quote
