Off Topic Great News for my band !

[fbecir]

Hello

In September, my new band Kashmin will open for the Yardbirds !

The gig will take place in a very nice place called Le Plan (in the suburbs of Paris). Rory Gallagher played several times there and now the street where Le Plan is located is called "Rue Rory Gallagher".
Now I have 4 months for learning how to play the guitar

Awesome and congrats. Have fun and enjoy the show!

The Yardbirds?!?! Who is playing guitar, and who is singing?

 

[browndog]

Great news François. Thats should be quite the thrill.

i'm diggin the tunes... i'm rusty on my French... but musically i'm diggin it

 

[Sweat]

Nice and congrats, and yea who is actually in the yardbirds nowdays

 

[RobW]

check out the album 'Birdland'. Great stuff!

 

[fbecir]

Thanks a lot for the encouragements !

Jim McCarty (drums) and Chris Dreja (rhythm guitar) are the only original members. The other guys are younger. Ben King is the lead guitarist (not easy to wear the shoes of Jeff Back, Eric Clapton and Jimmy Page ).
I think we will learn a lot just watching them.

Bravo François, I may try to attend that concert, I know "Le Plan" it's in Ris Orangis and I have been there a couple of time to see Fish (former Marillion lead singer) concerts

Thanks a lot !
The other guitarist (Robby) uses a Duesenberg and the guy I replace was also using a Duesenberg. But now there is a Music Man in the band !

The sound of our guitars are complementary (Robby uses a 49er (bridge humbucker + neck P90) and he plays mainly rhythm). I tried my 3 Music Man, and each one finds its place in the mix.
So life is good
