If I survive this afternoon's old folks home gig, I will set a new personal record for money made through music and MyLot without leaving town.
Friday night, I played a rock 'n roll gig at a local bar until 1 AM. It went well. We had people up and dancing.
Last night I played a 6 PM Western Swing gig at a local BBQ place, and then darted out to the same bar, switched from acoustic to electric bass, and played another gig until 1 AM.
Today, the Western Swing band has an afternoon gig at a local old folks home. If I survive that gig, I will have played four gigs in one weekend, a personal record, and made about $221.0000 via local music and MyLot, also a personal record.
Wish me luck this afternoon!

@toniganzon I was pooped yesterday but pretty functional today. Right now I'm working on laundry and getting test grades entered--not too stressful.

That's really wonderful ...not for making the money but having that wonderful talent intact with you! God bless dear friend @TheHorse!
One query...when I am connecting my Hawaiian guitar to my amplifier that is actually meant for it....I am getting a hum in the amplifier which disappears as ai am touching the strings...what could be the problem? I will be highly obliged! thanks!

@allen0187 Snap. Now I have to go teach a class. I want more time to myself and I want it now! Why am I turning purple?

@TheHorse I agree, The first few thousand dollars checks got kept me painting. Now I am recovering from knee replacement and can't get to my studio space but I only have about a dozen pieces of slate left, last year was a big one for my art. I've been looking for slate on kijjijj and have found some around and reasonable prices but my messages to the owners has been ignored. I will be looking for more soon, Haven't been on line much since the surgery.

Four gig's in one weekend? You're like the Springsteen of NorCal!

@TheHorse - I've never seen him. I'm not a huge fan, but I've heard he puts on a great show.

@TheHorse I would say playing your show is pretty productive as well. I will upload the picture of the table tomorrow, I tried to send it to you in messages here earlier today, but it wouldn't work!

Now's that bass playing for you? Sound good to you? Got feel, or is it an "it'll do in a pinch" thing?

Some days I miss going out and taping the band(s) and some days I am glad I do not have to do that anymore. I use to promote, so I taped a lot of live shows.

Did you paste the links to your youtube? But it was actually the songs that gave you the opportunity to earn so much.

Yes, I have one link of me singing a silly Western Swing tune with the Swing group.
