This pic doesn't feature me, but it's an upstate NY Farmer's Market. 4 hours in 90 degree sun in a parking lot, but mostly under a tent!!
It's actually a lovely gig, tourists are nice and vendors appreciate the music. My job is not to lose my voice or faint.
The stage from last Thursday's gig. My rig is on the left, my brother's is on the far right, and our singer's is next to the drums (he also plays the acoustic on a few songs).
My backup did not have strap locks, so of course my strap came off in the middle of the last song. The guitar didn’t hit the floor, and I finished the set like this.
