I think Thursday night was quite possibly the most impressive display live musical talent I have ever seen. I don’t think any tangible object on the stage went unplayed - mic stands, amps… sides of stuff - I think the drummer even played a few beats off his arm - yes his very bicep. These guys played their hearts out and left it all on the stage. The sound engineer was amazing - every note was heard from every instrument (including the hits of flesh and bone), every delay calculated, clean and amazing. The video and lighting completely in sync and inspiring.
Abbye knows some of these guys from her days on the road with Dony & Reba. So after the show we all got to go back and meet the band. My favorite part of the visit was when Darren King (drummer) had to leave because he heard that he might have broken something. LOL (coming from the guy who duck tapes his headphones to his head and periodically jumps up on top of his bass drum while he plays).
I almost didn’t go. Abbye got some free tickets from Israel at the last minute. Thanks Abs… thanks Israel. He also left a photo pass for Bryan and he got some amazing shots. The one above is one of my favorites of Roy Mitchell-Cardenas (bass player). I love, love, love the sound of an upright bass. Go check out his other pics… they are awesome.
