Been real quiet around these parts lately, that's for sure!

I've been pretty busy w/ general life stuff lately, building a fence in my yard and general house maintenance.  We've been revamping our band w/ a new keyboard player and haven't had any shows last month or this month, but we've got a line on a show @ The Big Easy next month, and already have 2 other shows schedule for mid/late June up at Colby College (the Trek Across Maine) and Brian Boru.  2 more gigs @ Boru are also scheduled for July and August, and I believe we're going to have Libbypalooza VI this year on August 19th & 20th, so starting to think about the ins and outs of that.

New songs we've been toying with include:

- Old Man  (Neil Young)
- In The Flesh (Pink Floyd)
- Wolfman's Broheim (some band)
- Beauty Of My Dreams (Dell McCoury)
- Stand (REM)
- Ya Mar (Phish)

- Funky Town (Lipps, Inc.)
- Lola (The Kinks)
- Could You Be Loved (Bob Marley)
- Torn & Frayed (Rolling Stones)

Yep pretty quiet around here.  That's not a bad thing.  It's kind of relaxing to take a breath sometimes.  I'm sure spring fever has us all doing other activities as well.  I've got about 10 balls in the air right now but i love it.

As far as gear, I just ordered an upgraded output transformer and a clean boost module for the Blues Jr.  Should be pushing some great clean tone soon.

Aye, tis been a touch slow....I've been getting a new band off the ground and we just had our first gig last week.  We are called The Stagefright All-Stars, and I'll post some audio as soon as we get it.

I've been reworking my rig a bit as well.  Just received a King of Tone, that I completely forgot I was on the waiting list for.  But the KOT with my Signa Drive has me, for the first time completely ecstatic about my OD situation.  Just waiting a few more months on my custom AO, and the circle will be complete for now.  Cool checking in fellas.
