Gig Pics. Lets see em

Post by Mark Fasbender »

I'll go first. That's me on the left, the ugly one with the tele. The steeler is Bill Johnson, 2000 ACM nominee for steel player of the year. Played with Chris Le Doux for quite awhile. Me, I' ve never been nominated for anything. Maybe "loudest guy in the band" or something. Image

Huh. Can't imagine why not. Image

Most of the photos I've got are fuzzy, too dark, and I look like a dog's breakfast.

Here's one of the nicer-looking photos, of a little acoustic duo I did around Kansas with Lorena Prater, in about 2003 inbetween full band gigs where I played guitar and steel.

I shouldn't need to tell you I'm the one with the guitar.....? I'll look for some decent band pics.

Here is an octoberfest we played at a hotel in a mountain town. So cold our hands froze.
But the hotel gave us free rooms for the night!



Image
Fourth of July block party we got free BBQ and way too much free beer.

Private luau, had to play under porch because of threat of rain.

Fun honky-tonk gig. I set up my steel right in front of a table so I had a place to put my tuner, picks, bar,beer, and extra beer.<font size="1" color="#8e236b"><p align="center">[This message was edited by Will Sevy on 01 December 2005 at 09:40 AM.]</p></FONT><font size="1" color="#8e236b"><p align="center">[This message was edited by Will Sevy on 01 December 2005 at 09:41 AM.]</p></FONT><font size="1" color="#8e236b"><p align="center">[This message was edited by b0b on 08 December 2005 at 03:37 PM.]</p></FONT>

Here are some pictures from a country festival in northern Sweden this last August. We performed on an old rustic wooden stage equipped with a rock 'n roll smoke machine.

Hey Dave Z.....awesome dude!... your steel is in the same stage space at the Fillmore as Rusty Young's steel was the first time I saw Poco (maybe '69?, not sure but I know I was skinny.).
