The Humbuckers ( myspace link (http://www.myspace.com/rudyandthehumbuckers)) are playing at The Rocket Club (club link (http://www.therocketclub.net/)) in Asheville this Thursday @ 10 PM. Hope to see you there! Thanks
I've seen this band. The singer/songwriter is very good. The style is roots/americana. The guitar player was pretty good with lots of nice licks, but Art tells me they have a new guitar player since I saw them a month or so ago. When I saw them, they were running everything through a PA that just wasn't up to the task. However, Art's Hyak came through nice and clear and clean. I haven't been to the Rocket Club yet, it's fairly new, but Art tells me they have a really nice sound system there. I have a meeting Thursday night, but I'm hoping it lets out in time to swing by and catch a few tunes.
Thanks for the review Dave. I haven't been there yet either only word of mouth and specs at their technical page (http://www.therocketclub.net/technical.html) about the sound system. Not sure what I'm playing this week but either way I will most likely get a line out connection to that system (especially with a low powered rig in the size of this club).

Thanks for stopping by the gig Dave!
The Humbuckers are at Fred's Speakeasy in Asheville tonight Thanks!
Art; how was the gig? Did you guys do the whole show, or did you share the bill?
A nice gig, thanks!
We shared the bill and brought in Jonathan Ammons and the Electric Ghost Collective for a set.
Looking forward to the next gig and some upcoming studio time.
Best, Art
I've moved on... Good luck to The Humbuckers.
