OK,
So I got really lazy over the past 6 months and haven't blogged. In that time, here's what's happened:
-I took a gig being the trombonist of the National Tour of Spamalot
-I moved out of my apartment in NYC, and put everything in storage
-OBVIOUSLY, the busking thing is on hold for now
-In 5 something months, we've traveled 30-something states, and have done 125 shows (so far)
But I DID bring my looping equipment with me. I FINALLY had an opportunity to use it in public with a company cabaret in New Orleans, Louisiana. We used it as a fund raiser for Beacon of Hope. Most of the performers were our cast members performing show tunes.
I was pretty nervous about the whole thing. All I had done in the past 5 months was play this show, so to get out of the norm can throw your psyche for a loop. I tripped down the stairs holding my trombone trying to get to the stage, I had the sound man give me shit for not having a cable (I just thought there were extras). Did I mention this was on Bourbon Street?!
Anyway, here's how things went. Luckily, my friend Wayne filmed it!
I hope you're all well. Peace out.
~Bone.
