Heritage House Gig

Music at Pike Place Market 2008

I’ve been waiting to post this from earlier last month. I wanted to include a video or two. This was our second paid gig for this group this year. We have day jobs, family, and other things that make gigging more than that less than appealing. And I get my music mojo sated by being in a number of bands.

So here is a rather low-tech, but nicely done recording that almost sounds like we did the day of the gig:

Jeff and Tammy did the honors and kudos on a job well done. They also took some pictures which was appreciated.

From the back, I really like this picture. Suzy and I do saxes. And from the front.

Gary, Brad, and Dave montage. The audience minus those from the street. I’m luvin’ Saul keyboarding.

The video photographer Jeff. The stage. Gary doin’ it right.

This was a very enjoyable gig and our first as the Dissonance at the Heritage House. Maybe we’ll get invited back next year. That’s always the test to see if we were really appreciated and the music enjoyed.

    Beth, thanks. Freddie is a jazz standard that I come back to again and again.
    Bret, whoa! High praise. Everytime I hear a recording of myself I hate it. It’s a very humbling experience but one that helps me grow. My instructor and I tore the set of videos apart, analyzing it and marking areas for improvement. I almost didn’t post this recording.
