Benefit Concert Report


Our May 9 gig on behalf of the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society was a big hit. The main act of The Gristle Girls/Pindral "Unplugged" did a great job and we really enjoyed listening to them. We made a bunch of mistakes, learned a lot, but mostly enjoyed ourselves immensely. In a marked change from the past we used a number of effects for which we received some positive feedback. For example I used a Line 6 DL-4 to loop the twinkles on Asturias, which then allowed us to circulate over the top and add other ambient accents. Kevin also debuted the mandolin within the circle context, using it on 28 Bars, Norwegian Wood, and Asturias. Very nice!

Big thanks to April and Jonathan for hosting this wonderful event. Our good friend Steve N posted a few pics here.
