Re: Midnight Rider
Good stuff! Vocals sound great and I really dig the Holstein motif on the drum set! [emoji12]
Which one is you?

Re: Midnight Rider
Yeah, the cows are a cool kit. Loud, too. Funny that the last band I was in had a drummer with a nine piece kit, and this one won't take out more than a four piece and still sounds great.
I'm on stage left, playing lead and singing the low part.

Re: Midnight Rider
Nice job on that lead... sounded great!
(Didn't want to mention it before just in case you were the rhythm guy![emoji6])

Re: Midnight Rider
That sounds great and balance is really excellent for a live recording. Well, we might need more cowbell.

Sign of a skilled drummer. A little more Jazz/Swing lilt wouldn't hurt, though. I miss the Gregg-style Hammond organ filling things out.

Great song, well played, great FOH mix; that place looks 100x better than the crap houses I have played in!

Good song. Waylon reckons Bob Wills is still the king, but i reckon it's Willie.

Re: Midnight Rider
Thank you so much!! Yeah, Chris is the outsider when it comes to our look as a band.
Fantastic job!! Everything sounded wonderful from the vocal backups to your lead tone. My only complaint is that the bass player needs a hat.

Re: Midnight Rider
That place is the best we've yet played. The soundguy the first time I played there was a royal pain in the back side, but this one was a total breeze to work with. He took ten minutes and had FOH sound dialed, and when he asked if I needed any of my guitar in the monitors, I said I could hear my amp enough. His said "That is the correct answer, sir!!" We agreed that if you bring a decent amp onstage, there is really no reason to listen to guitar from a monitor speaker, which isn't really optimized for guitar in the first place. Good guy.

Yeah, Rob is a rock drummer through and through. He's super solid in the pocket, though.
