No. I don't have a band. I'm a one man fire pit/open mic hack. Last time I was in a band was 1993! Since then I have been playing with myself! :o I have jammed with friends bands but, nothing serious. Just **** around at their practices. Even that has been years.


Have you been to Mr. Beery's in Bethpage or The Parlor House in Sayville?


I played at Mr Beery's years ago for open mic. Seen a few bands there over the years.

A lot of the venues are opening back up. I'm about an hour and a half from Charlotte, and 45 mins from Danville, VA, and 25 from Durham. Plenty of great blues rock and bluegrass. Both of which is essentially my overall favorite.


Just always bombarded with the new country ****, whether it's a bar, shopping, or blaring down the street lol

My brother introduced me to Bo a whole ago. Didn't know he had a Netflix special, tho.

:thumbsup:


Are you teaching down there?


Yeah. It's a cluster **** down here.

Prioritize doing well on state testing vs learning (monetary reasons).

Such a shortage of teachers. 4 had to come out of retirement just to be in compliance. Special education is a joke.

But I'm also full Title 1. Our school is the second poorest out of 16 elementary schools.


Jesus. How long have you been down there? I thought you were situated up here in the NE.

I'm a big fan of his guitar player, Kenny Vaughan.







Marty's bass player not too shabby when not playing bass:




(this clip probably before he joined the Fabulous Superlatives in 2015)




Here's a random guy who is good

It's more difficult to bend strings for sure. Just slow it down until you start to feel more comfortable. Just takes time ... or, become a bass player. :D

Louis Shelton is the not so famous session guitarist from The Wrecking Crew session group that played on so many hits in the 60s and 70s. Here's another song he played on.
