Topic: Howdy from northern California

My name is Sven and I happened upon this forum by accident reading about my favorite blues player, Chris Cain. 

Anyway, my band does cover a couple of Mr. Bonamassa's songs and we are a blues band, so I figured this would be a great resource as well a place to meet like minded players.

My band is called, Blooze on the Rocks, out of Chico CA, and we are very (very) small time, but we're working on getting out there more.

I've been playing for upwards of 35 years, too long for how good I am, but its too late to stop now.  So I keep on keepin on.

Welcome Amstratnut! I'm also from NorCal in the Sacramento area. Are you going to the Sac show 2 months from today? As the date gets closer, I'll try to organize a pre-show meet up at a local establishment. Enjoy the forum and all it has to offer. The people here are great also!

Why don't we eliminate all the warning labels and let things sort themselves out?

I was not aware of a Sac. show coming up.  If I can get the budget committee (my wife) to approve it I'll see if I can make it.
