so i was over at my buddy's house today, i brought over a couple mics for them to use cause they were recording. their session didn't work out cause the drummer didn't show, so we sat around for a while bitching about drummers. then my friend chris suggests that we jam, so he playes drums, i play the geetar, and jack on bass. we jam thru all of the songs that we know that a 3 piece can cover. we take a break so i can smoke a cig, and while we are out sitting on my truck we start talkin about the stones promo with them riding around on the flat bed truck. then my buddy says "hey man it would be really cool if we did that!"
which of course gets me thinking, why not. i'm a live sound engineer and know people who can hook us up with a p.a. so we measured and drew out diagrams, and came up with a game plan. so after we laughed about it for a while, we decided we should do some guerilla shows, parking lots and such. i guess the catalyst for this was us having to cancel our halloween show do to the lead singer and drummer not wanting to work to do the show. kinda party poopers cause it was gonna be a one off, and we were playing songs we had played in the past before we broke up.
so we're gonna have a good time, the only problems are space (i'm playing my champ and putting it thru the p.a.), and buying a converter so we can run the electricity off my cig lighter. i saw the converters on t.v., but need to look into them closer. what do you guys think? i think it is a pretty damn funny idea.
