Spread the Daf!
......and he can attest to the fact that when I did this I, as usual, had a substantial buzz going. 
I've found a drummer and a bass player I like a lot. We just seem to have hit it off so we're gonna play some gigs together and this was the first one.
In fact we've had exactly zero practices......just a couple of jams in clubs. I gave them each some CDs with 50 or 60 songs on them and told them to learn it....they had about two weeks 'till the gig.
This particular tune....none of us had ever played it before.....well, actually I played bass on it a long, long time ago (30 years
) but I've never played guitar on it before this night. And you can hear the bass player trying to figure out what I was playing at the top of the song. Also, I periodically dropped back into the groove whenever I thought it needed stabilizing.
As usual......I simply stuck a SM-57 at each end of the stage and turned it on. Whatever those two mics picked up is what you get. That's why when I use the talkbox at about 4:30....it's not as loud as it should be because the monitors didn't come into the mics very well. But the recording's passable if you like live jams.
NOTE: This is fairly lengthy.....so unless you like live music and are curious about what your fellow Homerecers might be playing, you might want to pass....you have been warned.
