Hey man, that was great. Im moving to fullerton college, is steamers a hard place to get some gigs? do you think students can get gigs there or is it like blue note level?
well done! was this your first time out--or just your first time with these guys? nice solo, good phrasing. you have a great teacher. my only suggestion--careful not to rush when you solo :)
thanks! it was my first time out actually. Thanks yeah I realize throughout the entire jam there were some points when I was a little ahead of everyone else and had to wait for the bass and drums to catch up. I think it was mainly because I couldn't hear the bass AT ALL. My teacher told me after the take that that stage is infamous in the area for having bad stage acoustics and that musicians complain about it all the time. Anyways, thanks for the comments and criticism and for watching it.
lol, I know how it is, my friend. unfortunately, very rarely is the stage designed with the musician in mind. sometimes there's room for a monitor--which helps, but other times--you just gotta keep on playing and hope for the best. :)
Yeah I wasnt feelin the bass so much either, not only the acoustics but personally the bassist isnt so amazing compared to the drummer and you of course!
