At this point I am only taking outdoor gigs as a single, duo or trio. Here's a clip from one my wife and I did the other day. The event was hosted in a very big back yard with the guests very spread out. BTW, the fellow that gets up and dances is my cousin who lives with us.... Anyways, we're keeping active and trying to stay safe.
We have some fall festivals and some more back yard parties booked through November. Hope everyone is well, and enjoying your music.

Been fairly lucky this summer. We've done 14 gigs (all outdoor, of course) which is well off our usual pace of 12-14 per month. Where it goes from here as the weather turns colder is anyone's not-too-educated guess. Still, grateful for what we've had.

I was wondering about the usual availability of electricity at outdoor events. I am sure it varies between an electrified Pagoda, to a back yard with none. I could run a 100ft cord from an outside outlet, and have a battery generator I have not tried yet. A battery powered speaker would probably be best, but more money and and an iffy return.

We've had no problems in that regard, Bernie. All our gigs are NH/AL. Yesterday, we were on a 70’ extension from the outlet to our power block - all good. With so few gigs I can't see us investing in anything that's battery.

Glad you’re staying active 124. Yes, who knows what winter will bring. I envision a long break ! I’m very glad I have what appears to be a secure day job!

Bernie, I am happy with my Bose S1 Pro battery powered speakers, and my Flahfish portable power station that keeps my keyboard, mixer, vocal effects unit powered up.

Very nice video and preformance. I love Latin Style music.
