John,

Cool, I'm going to try and make the Dreamstreet date.


Thanks,

Howard

Cool daddy-o,

Of course, I look forward to meeting you. Hope I don't have to rush on/off stage so we can talk gear while it's still there.

John

I'm going to try to make it out to one the County Fair dates.


Strangely enough, my Band is going to be playing at Dreamstreet as well on July 1st. Unfortunately though, I can't check out the 'Crazy Watermelon' at Dreamstreet because I'm under the age of 21.

Very cool Mr. TheAbomb12,

Hope you can find the Coors Rock-on stage by 6:30! Don't worry, they have a 90 bazillion dollar pro concert sound system there and $8 beers to pay for it. Being 21 isn't always all that it's cracked up to be. :roll:

As of today, I've contacted over 25 small venues up and down CA that seem like they might work with a mostly instrumental format for an end of summer tour. Any suggestions are very welcome!

We are also open to doing music stores if people know any likely candidates. I will be bringing my psycho 2 headed Egnater/Switchblade/Synth shape-shifter rig so we could do a few different options: just roar through the HWM material; demonstration/discussion of morphing set-ups and my "mega-setups"; and/or more "academic" stuff about the music and orchestration issues.

I sure hope we can make this work. I am trying to give my guys a decent per diem, so I just hope to not go into the hole too badly at the end of the day. Again, any likely small venues/stores from LA to Sacramento will be contacted.
