Hey gang. Thought I'd start a thread in case some potential benefactors missed the buried requests elsewhere.

If anyone can hook us up with a drum kit and/or small PA for vocals, that would be great. Let me or Joey V know. Thanks! J

I have one of these:

...which has two mic inputs. It's small enough to bring along, and fits in my car.

I also have two of these:

...but no head to power them.

That would be great, Kenny. I was really hoping someone else could help out, so we could let you relax.

So was I! Which is why I'm leaving the drums up to someone else.

(P.S. I'm not being snobby, I just don't own any drums.)

I have several Drummer friends in So. Calif. I'll see if they want to be there and play.

When Gary and I went to the Holiday Inn to secure arrangements, he told me he had a small PA and an electronic drum set to bring to the confluence. Since we will be under guest rooms in the hotel, the electronic drum set is the best way to go to keep the volume level under control. Gary will probably also bring guitar amps.
I'll bring the bass amp(s).
I'm hoping that a least one drummer from one of my bands comes to the confluence.

I have a RIC RA 300 power amp we could use to power a PA.

I can bring a Vox AD30VT on Saturday if necessary.

We best check with Gary to see what's going to be acceptable with regards to volume. Perhaps Gary can check with the hotel???

Hey Joey...Since there could very well be as many as three or four guitar players as well as a drummer, we would probably need a bass amp with enough power to cut through the jangle. Since you're already bringing a dozen or so basses, I could bring my little 2x10 Ampeg PortaBass setup...250 watts.

That's cool Dane. With a couple of good bass amps we can Rick-O-Sound the 4001/4003 basses.

aceonbass · Post by **aceonbass** » Fri Jul 13, 2007 2:26 pm

...and 3080/4004/4008 basses too!
