Inappropriate use of PSG

[Danny Mitchell]

Last night I had the temerity to take my beloved GFI Ultra keyless E9 PSG along to a Halloween pub gig with a function band. Having set up, I proceeded to shoehorn it into anything and everything. I can only say that I'm very glad there were no players to witness this debacle. It was, musically speaking, absolute sh:*e! However, it afforded me the opportunity to use the two licks i know in various musical scenarios as well as a bit of enumerated seat time......which was nice.
But......remarkably enough, where I thought I might be up for a public stoning for crimes against pop music, the punters, to a man, loved the sound??? It's a funny old world and, needless to say, the experiment shall continue. Caveat Emptor.

And I sat in all night waiting for the call......tisk tisk tisk

Good on ye Dan, no substitute for seat time

Asleep at the steel

Aha, this wasn't the Jugband, Willie, far from it. This is me and 2 chanters, just about as far from live music as you can get. These shenanigans cover the Aldi bill! And would you really have liked to shoehorn your instrument into the likes of Lady Gaga, Miley Cyrus and Cheryl Cole? Sadly, Shania never popped up on this occasion.

". . . the punters, to a man, loved the sound??? . . ."

I keep telling people, if you can do a train whistle noise and an octave slide, you're the greatest steelie they've ever heard (probably the only one too )

[Danny Mitchell]

Ha ha, Tony, I can't even do them!

[Jif]

Ha ha, Tony, I can't even do them!

I think the man underrates himself

But yeah, agree with Tony. I think it's just the sound of a steel that people like, (what's not to like!), doesn't matter what you're playing, in fact probably the simpler the better. Which is just as well as far as my playing goes
