Country Music Gig

Post by Sandy Inglis »

I played my first Country Music Gig in about 6-8 years last night.
Usually I play PSG only occasionally in Country Rock/Ameripolitan Band. I was invited to sit in with a CM show and I discovered how much I missed being just a PSG player!
I had to tell them I don't sing etc. so they would leave me alone.
I discovered how much I'd forgotten and I really need to get back into it.
I have really missed playing my gig PSG (a Zum) as I usually only play on my practice one, on old ShoBud.
I also got out my Peavey Nashville 1000 amp and it sounded amazing and I got heaps of compliments on my sound and playing. They also have been starved for PSG players so It didn't matter that I was a bit rusty.
I'm hoping it will get me back out there and playing more PSG.
Keep safe

It is always nice to get out and play. My band only did 4 shows this summer. Glad you had the opportunity.

Getting out and playing period is a great exercise in fun and humility. Trying to fit in while adding something clever and musical. I will continue to play out as long as possible. Keeps us young.

We played 3 shows this year. 95% of our shows were canceled because of virus.
