The only crowd shot was a video so here’s a screenshot of it.
Of course, in today’s digital world, is it a real gig or an AI gig

Funny you should say that. The first thought that popped into my head was AI! Did someone use a tape measure to ensure the (almost) even spacing between all of the performers?

And here’s a link to the full song recorded closer to the stage including monitor backwash.

We had a great time with no AI needed

Playing my 1998 4003SPC Blackstar.

May have lost myself a bit playing some old Yes pieces. I was a bit out of practice though.

You had binding put on the headstock? It looks cool.

Yes, it does.

Nice!
If I were still gigging, I'd seriously try a 4004 of some sort again.

It is a very nice bass! This picture was from one of my last club gigs. My very last gig was in August 2022, at the Del Norte county fair.
I used my ‘98 Cheyenne at that show. We had a good reception, and t’was great fun until a heavy fogspit started to rain down on our open stage.
Myself and our drummer both came down with Covid after the show.

Great band, And your AC sounds amazing. Both Your playing, and the bass tone!
It has that lovely “Rick meets J bass” sound I love, especially on Moondance. So nice to hear one of these basses outside the usual overdriven sludge/doom/whatever sound.
This is making me yearn for my custom Laredo I sold. (The 4002v57).

4030 and V63
