throwbackthursday October 2019, soundcheck and performance at the Palm Desert Civic Center with LA Sound Machine. It’s only been a year, but seems like forever since we’ve gotten to play in front of a crowd like this. I feel very fortunate that I still get to perform music via online streaming concerts and drive-in shows, but I look forward to seeing all the smiling faces in-person as soon as it’s safe again.

Yay!

Yay! The first batch of my new custom bass picks from @steveclaytoninc were delivered. Now I just need some more gigs so that I can throw them at people 🤘😎

Looking forward to some upcoming studio sessions in the next few weeks.

Looking forward to some upcoming studio sessions in the next few weeks. As much as I crave performing live, being in the recording studio definitely qualifies as being in my ‘happy place’ too. I love the challenges of the creative process, the collaboration with the other artists and production team, and the satisfaction of being able to say, “We made this!” when listening to the final produced song. 🤘😎

Quick little project: I added some glow-in-the-dark paint to the fret markers on my basses.

On a dimly lit stage, it’s often very difficult to quickly check your hand position on the neck of the bass guitar, especially when you are singing backing vocals and you can only look out of the corner of your eye.

In the past I’ve used little glowing-dot stickers, but they wear off rather quickly. This time I used some Glow-On paint. It’s designed to be used on gun sights, but it works great on guitars too. It only takes a few minutes in bright light to charge it for a gig — a flashlight (or cell phone light) works great as well.
