A neighbor, Oz, a horse guy, a few farms down the road invited me to a dance hall with live music on the second Friday of every month. When I showed up at his place he pulled out his 60s era Gibson Hummingbird and handed it to me. I played until everyone was ready to roll. It was all very rural. Mostly my age with kids and grand children.
The music was provided by a 5 piece band. They covered a wide variety of classic rock. They never took a break, just played for three hours, for what appeared to be donations. They were all really good and the band was tight, three guitars, bass and drums, tight vocals too. They’ve been together for a while.
The woman playing bass was flawless, she mostly played the 1,4,5 country style, shaking it up a bit with her waking back and forth, she obviously played this style for a while. At one time she owned one of the largest music stores in the county. I couldn’t wait to speak with her but their was never an opportunity.
The lead guitarist played a Les Paul, really well he also played a harmonica skillfully, he is missing his right arm with a 3 or 4” stump, when it comes to playing he is certainly not handicapped.
