Today........I am a cowboy.
I have a country show at a local senior spot and I am using my new Crate "Limo" ! A battery powered, three channel combo amp, with digital reverb and channel switching! All in the huge package of 22 lbs !
I'll be using my acoustic/electric guitar so I will not even need to plug into the wall. I bought this setup for just this kind of gig, and today is it's second trial run. The first one was a huge success - I used it as a PA only for a short MD/Vocal thing last week. Today will be the first day on the job where I will push it a little.
I can't see the battery powered aspect providing much help for keyboard players, but if you play acoutic instruments (even piano) at nursing homes or senior centers - this little bear is a major player! The vocal sound is great and the effects are too!
I'll let you all (sorry..... Y'ALL) know how it went. Yee Ha! Watch out Don Mason -
I'm a comin' into yer territory!
(actually, I've played in many C&W bands - just last year I was filling in with a 10 piece band and we played a cruise with Charlie Pride & Michelle Wright, what a gas!)
