Gig: Resination and Luciano at The Graduate, San Luis Obispo, CA

Our local big guns in sound reinforcement always come with these Sennheiser MD 441 U shotgun-patterned consenser mics that sound awesome on horns. Super clean sound with a nice boost on the high end for that “sheen.”

A few years ago after listening to some recordings with this mic, I wanted to pick one up until I saw that they list for about 7 bills. Since that’s not going to happen anytime soon (and the fact that I love my clip on mic) I look forward to any shows where Bill Gains and his awesome crew are running the sound.

Our set was short tonight, 1 hour, and about 50 on the dance floor. Kind of what I expected for a Sunday in SLO on a holiday but I’m sticking around to catch the rest of the show for sure. As a general rule, if a (reggae) band rolls with a tour bus, it is usually a good idea to stick around.

The Grad, hmmmm… It will be an epic post in the not too distant future. Thinking it might be on May 3 when we rock the stage with SOJA (Washington DC) and Rebelution (Santa Barbara).

(Luciano’s messenjah band playing) Oh no! They’ve got synth horns! Another post topic for sure.
