I was gonna ask that too. I've gigged many New Year's the last 10 years, but this year I'm just staying home watching some good movies with the family.

Woodstock? Gimme Shelter? The Last Waltz? The Song Remains the Same? There's a lot of good guitar movies out there! R

Ooooooooh Yeah!

Played a New Year's Eve gig last night that absolutely RAWK'D! Got home at 6:20 AM. We had the crowd throwing cash at us to play longer (so we did - until 4:30 or so ). The hall was pretty much trashed, lots of spilled drinks on the dancefloor, bottles everywhere, the odd "tired" party-goer dozing in a corner. The event organizers even threw in a bonus at the end of the night!

We recorded off the board to my laptop. I'll post some clips once we have it ripped to MP3.

I'm a tired, but happy and slightly richer, camper this morning (afternoon? ).

It sure is! I used to think it was a real ego stroke, and I must admit, to some degree it still is. But now I get such a kick out of seeing people have a good time and enjoy what we are doing. Not to get too "Dr. Phil" about it, but it's like I'm giving something of myself that makes others feel good/better. And in turn, that makes me feel good.

Besides, it TOTALLY RAWKS, DUDE! :R :R

It was a great bit of fun, i joined in for the 3rd and 4th sets , there was not supposed to be a 4th set but ..let the good times roll... some of our friends who we used to play with 20 years ago got up for the last set and it was amazing .. we dug up some old stuff from the 80's and basically flew by the seat of our pants ... plus a 20 min version of roadhouse blues that was hilarious as we had some of the audience on the stage singing on the chorus ... all in all a great evening and yeah we did close the bar ...
