live on NBC at the Los Angeles Music Awards. Later, we shared the stage with Blue Oyster Cult, Joe Satriani, Gary Hoey, George Lynch, Jefferson
Starship and many more. Now I am basically a hired gun. I just do session work and fill in gigs. I am planning on bringing a bass rig, guitar rig and
a small drum kit to my house in BOLA for some occasional jam sessions.
Gees Bob, i grew up around Rose Maddox band i the 70's my parents, uncle and friends used to party and jam with them.....funny how small a world we
live in. C

Well, you need to make an overnight down here. We now have a 24 Channel mixer, two Mackie Speakers, Microphones,
lots of spirit and fun, and continue to draw good crowds with some people only coming out when we play. Who knew that retirment could be so good.

Sounds like a blast. I'd love to.
I have a friend that lives down that way. Do you know Ed Hogan?

One place I remember playing up in Oregon with Rose was the Idleyld Lodge. It used to be a fun little bar back then. That's where our drummer met his
wife. I think that place is a bed and breakfast now.

Fun topic!
I've been drumming since 1988. I have played in bands throughout the years and got to tour around the US several times and also play in Canada,
Mexico, Japan, Italy and Germany. It's never been a viable way to make a living but I have seen a lot of amazing places and met some great people
because of music!

Somebody ought to U2U NOMAD "ToneArt" (Tony)--------- he is a long time musician, I understand.
I have a 60+ year old Martin Guitar, but have not played it for many years. What a shame!!!

Here's a link to some music I made back in 2007/2008. Some of it's pretty slow and atmospheric. Track 5 and 6 are a little more upbeat.

Bob53, I still have my Gibson EB3L Bass from back in the good old days. I purchased it from a really great bass player Izzy Alvarado, he sold it to
me with the condition that I would "never sell it". Izzy toured with several of the rock and roll bands and he was based out of the central valley of
California. I also play a little 5 string banjo and really enjoy my quite time on the back porch with a fairly spendy limited edition autoharp. JH

I still have my 72 Fender Jazz bass that I bought from a friend in 74. I don't play it much anymore. It's semi retired. I play an Alembic Stanley
Clarke bass now and a few others.
