Once in a while you have to play a job that has a particular theme, some of which require certain types of attire. For example, pool parties and cookouts, which are a very relaxed atmosphere, would mandate a Hawaiian shirt, slacks, etc. Then there's the country/western theme, which Eddie "Btweengigs" Shoemaker played Saturday night in south Florida. Eddie dressed appropriately for the event, which was a big hit.



Ride em' cowboy!

Gary

Looking good, Eddie... yahoooooo!

Glenn

Looks like everyday street clothes to me.

DonM

Yo Gary.....I remember Hoppalong and Tom Mix
Eddie kinda reminds me of Skippalong and Ready Mix...jus kidding....Eddie you look good but if you play the clubs that Shaboom plays you'd better wear 6 guns.....hehehe
Tony Rome

Yippiieeeyeeeaaaah!!!

The cowboys are back in town...
Cool outfit, Eddie! Seems a little bit like the cowboy with the smell of roses...

Good photo, Gary!
That's the second picture from a second event in one week. Are you on a photo safari???

Eddie,

Looks like you are back in the saddle again!

Tom

Eddie looking good!!!
Hows your new 3k & Bose PAS system working out for ya?

Three Amigos!

Mike...you are a true artist....great touch-up....what program are you using???
Tony Rome

Thanks Tony,

Ya know, if you knew me, you'd know that I'm anything but an artist. I'm that mischievous kid that always took everything apart to see how it worked, and then tried to modify it.

Anyway, I'm using Photoshop 8.

-mike

Mike, mighty 'impressive' work. Just the type of photoshop artistry used to doctor up those celeb mug shots that appear on the cover of the National Enquirer I see when waiting in the supermarket checkout lines. Do you perhaps work for them on the side? - Scott

Nice job, Mike. Quite a surprise. What I really like is: the pic makes all three of us look to be the same height. In reality we go from 5'6" to 6'5".

Tony, I think you are right about wearing that shirt at one of Shaboom's gigs. But, I don't have a Fat Bastard outfit.

Tom, in the words of the Smother's Brothers: "Get yourself an outfit and you can be a cowboy to."

Glenn, as you know, I take requests. But, if you make it down my way this year, don't expect me to wear the shirt....even if you request.

Sheriff, I am afraid it did not smell like roses by the time the gig was over. It is a pretty heavy, long sleeve shirt...and this is Florida in May. Day time temps are already hitting 90F.

Donny, it has taken me 5 months to get the 3K ready to go. FINALLY (with the help of Mr Wizard) I have my registrations where I want them and I am getting very comfortable with the conversion from the 2K.

As for the Bose PAS.... AHHHHHH! I am loving it. My audiences seem to love it. Management at the places I play like it for a couple of reasons: it not only sounds great, but takes up a lot less space than conventional systems on tripods...plus no amplifiers or monitors necessary.

Eddie

Nope, I Photoshop in my spare time only. Just doin' it to get a laugh or two or maybe even a smile. Nothing personal, just having fun with technology.

Let me know if you think it gets to be a bit too much.

-mike

From left to right "Moe", "Larry", and "Curly".

Just remember Tom, "Paybacks Are Hell!"

Gary

The Million-Dollar Band, ya'll!

The sad thing is Don wears that shirt golfing! Up here in the frozen north proper golf attire is a hooded parka.
