Mr. G,
How are you? I miss going to the Mojo! Allegies are tough this year, I thought I got rid of it for years; but their back! Achooooooo, pewh!
Drop by this Monday at the Greenery... lots of play time. I'll let you use my amp again...I bought it cheap from a neighbor kid in Orinda who never used it. I'll call Ruben... he might want to go.
Ha ha ha, you and the singer got pissed and left that poor young kid to play his super distortion blues....my old ears are still ringing and I could not find my notes anymore for the rest of the night! ...yeck!
Enjoyed your closing blues jam at the Mojo's the other night! ...Nice!
