Hello friends , I have a busy schedule this week and a gig on 5/5/17  at The Bistro in Hayward  and on 5/7/17 at  Michaels on Main St. in Sequel, Ca. Our 5/5/17 gig will be the last gig that we play known as EASY WIND ! From here on will be booked collectively as DEAD GUISE . Dead Guise has over an two decade history in the San Francisco Bay Area . Easy Wind was mostly ex Dead Guise band members. Currently we have resurrected the name and are working on  refining this WEB SITE ;   http://www.deadguise.com  . We are also working on the update of our Facebook page   https://www.facebook.com/DeadGuise

Here are the flyers for these gigs ;

I I had  a fun gig playing bass in a band project called "Turpentine Remedy " at the Richmond Heights Art & Music Festival on 7/16/17 .I played my Walnut Top Essence Bass with the added brass bridge block a 3 position cue switch . I played through the " backline " offered bass amp that was a classic Ampeg SVT top and 4X10 speaker cab. I really did not have time to really dial in my sound to my true taste but folks out in front thought it was ok ;) .I might do some post production EQ and the such when I have time  .  Here is an ambient raw recording recording of the gig on SoundCloud ;      https://soundcloud.com/sonicus-alembicus/turpentine-remedy-71617-richmond-heights-artmusic-festival

Thanks for posting this, Wolf! I enjoyed it this afternoon while working on some graphics for a custom preamp!

Sounds great, Wolf, love the song selection!

That was good stuff, Wolf!  I thought the bass sounded great.   Very open, distinctively Alembic tone to my ears :)

Hello friends ! On 8//4/17 I played  Bass at a reunion celebration for the original "Princess No.109" Light Show company that used to do the Winterland and Fillmore Auditorium light shows  for Bill Graham back in the day  . A past rhythm Guitar player from Dead Guise booked the gig along with a past drummer so they are playing instead of the current Guise . My self , the lead guitarist and the current keyboard player are also in this lineup . Here is a video with us and the Light Show :) .

That's what love will make you do

Your upgraded Essence is sounding fantastic Wolf... very close to your old Distillate.  ;D

I'll listen to this set in its entirety for work Monday. (I find data entry less mind-numbing when there's music to listen to... :) )

I wonder- do you ever bring a backup Alembic?


pauldo

^^^ that is ironic, I was actually wondering if the Distillate would make an appearance.  Agreed, for being a 'raw form' the bass tone comes through nicely.  Looks like you were having a good time also! :-D
