1998 Video from 1st Gig in 8 Years!

Stevo

Tonus Maximus Pacificas
I had not played my guitar in about 8 years, then I started jamming with this keyboard player, then before we knew it, we had a short gig in front of about 500 people :eek13: :laugh2: :6:

When we first got up to play, we blew the circuit breaker.. hehe..

Kinda corny.. my hair really sucks.. and I've lost a few pounds since then.. a few mistakes and un-harmonics here and there.. oh well :13:

Your hair ain't bad at all bro..now the keyboard player :eek13: :chairfall

Great playing as always Steve :bigthumb: ...good choice of tunes. You have a very unique style of phrasing that I just cant describe...If I didn't know that was you playing by sight, I'd have known as soon as you started your solo.

That's the STEVO Signature Lick!:fing2: It's a quick hamer on/pull off legato like lick I guess is the best way to describe it? He's got his own pedigree! How cool is DAT !:banana::yourock:

:D I think I was still stuck in the 80s.. had my head in work and books for so long, I had no clue (still don't) about fashion or the latest style :laugh2:

The keyboardist was someone that I just happened to work with. He bugged me for a long time, to get something going. It pretty much ended that day :D

is that a Twin?
That was a beautiful 76 Twin with vintage greenback speakers. I wish I still had it.

Fabulous!! Your hair ain't the problem....lol, the keys could use just a lil trim!!

Really nice playing, had to have been really fun having that size crowd welcoming you back.... I wish I could sing and play, that art is just lost on me.

Corbic and Cream :) You guys are young and you will be putting me to shame in no time :)

Yes it was quite intimidating, but fun at the same time. It was in Santa Barbara.. lots of nice looking ladies there :D

Stevo on a strat! Nice!
I've been jonesing for another strat lately! :) That guitar had a hot rails bridge, hot stack middle and a quarter pounder in the neck.. all Duncans, of course :D
 
Re: 1998 Video from 1st Gig in 8 Years!

That was great! :fing2:

Excellent choice of songs, excellently done.

Keyboard player's hair requires age-bias adjustment. :27:
 
Re: 1998 Video from 1st Gig in 8 Years!

Hehe man that is so fun and cool at the same time!!
Defently got that signature playing going on!!
Stevo allright!
And that Strat looks like Dann Huff's old sunburst he used to bang around.
Sweet Twin!
Sometimes I wish that I never had sold my Hot stacks, had a strat with two hot stacks and a JB;)
Will download the other clips later.

Thanks for checking it out Niels. That was a strange but fun experience.

On those older clips, I had the same strat and twin. The band was pretty cool but we were not together for too long. The lead guitar was an Italian guy named Ozzie :D I think this was our 3rd gig together. George Thoroghgood was in the audience, with 2 beautiful women. My brother started a conversation with him by saying "I thought you drank alone" :laugh2:

Shortly after that gig I moved to Santa Barbara and started night school. The amp sat in my closet for years. I kept my guitar out on display, but never played it. I wanted to, but I knew I'd get the bug again :D
