Okay, it's not what you (or some of you) think right now :p

I thought, I just share some serious EBMM action involved in last Sunday's gig in the countryside... :cool:

I C WAT U DID THERE!!!!

Anyways, very cool pics! Nice EBMM action going there!

I've actually have a question. Have you ever had an coverage problems? The grass seems to absorb a lot of the sound and sucked out a ton of bottom end in my experience. For a small venue it didnt matter, but..... just saying. :D

Okay.....wait a minute *tryingtoignoretheambiguouscontentofthereply* Good...

Well, yes, the sound sucks as far as the bottom end and the mid range is concerned. Anyway, that was a very smal garden party type of thing, so okay somehow. Apart from the insects that crawled up my pants and left some bite marks here and there *ggg*

I have played in the grass before with a huge amount of humidity, we ended using some wood tables without feet of course to isolate the gear from the grass ;)

I love your silo, great color on a great guitar

There is some grass under my feet. BTW, the LUKE was Rex's (silverburst) - nice guitar. He had a backyard party last fall and my band played a couple of sets.

i played at a benefit once outside on a flat bed trailer in high wind , set lists blowing all over the place , and the trailor would bounce with the bass drum as we were playing and all i remember was for that hour and a half was feeling like i was on a boat and was nauseous the whole time. I dont remember it sounding all that great either it sounded so empty like the sound was just lost in the wind.
Like Spud sai a small garden party would be fun though , but no more trailers for me.

The strange thing about this venue was a country road directly behind the tent....a road that is a sort of a "playground" for bikers and other motor enthusiasts. So from time to time, there was some engine noise backing to the songs....which is okay for P!nk, but weird for Randy Crawford ;)
