The Trainwreck Blues Band Live at Los Ojos...

Post by Blindboy »

Here is a vid of us doing "Stormy Monday". I am still learning how to front the band (as well as sing :yikes: ). This features DeaconBlues on the blue Strat, and PoppaGstring (another 12bar member) on bass.

From this vid, one can easily see why we call ourselves the Trainwreck Blues Band. :whistle:

One more Red Stripe for the band! :beer:
I love it! You're growing as bandleader. :thumbsup:
And a little bit more volume for DeaconBlues would have been nice - he's too shy.

You really want more volume on my wanking? :think: :icon_whoknows:

I usually get told to turn down...or find the right key. --> :motz: -People complaining about volume/key.

Very enjoyable performance - very good playing by all of you - lots of variety of dnamics and tone in the 10 minutes too. :clap: :clap:

And the bandleader role is starting to suit you - liked the hand signals. :thumbsup:

You must have been seeing stars with all those camera flashes going off at you. :yikes:

As a singer and a band leader you're doing just fine, but as a guitar player you're smokin' :pray:

I've been struggling with learning to sing myself, but I think it will be a while before I can front a band like that - if ever

Great job :clap: :clap: :clap:

Well, I think the Blues is certainly a big tent.

On this video I see a band where most of the members are wearing denim jeans, cowboy shirts and western hats.

And they're playing a Blues song made famous by a black artist.

And they are playing in the Los Ojos bar which looks like it could have been in the movie "El Mariachi".

Now, I think that's a case of Blues music spanning cultures.

Blindboy, that's a really cool video and your playing is outstanding - as usual.

The place reminds me more of the bar scene in "From Dusk Till Dawn" without Salma. :big_smile:

Thanks guys... The TWBB is a work in progress. We rehearse every Monday night, whether we need to or not :whistle:
We do, however, have a LOT of fun.
We will work on getting more DeaconBlues out there. :thumbsup:
