:P

Believe it or not, Marta and me are appearing on a concert this evening.
As a part of an orchestra with almost 40 musicians (I never counted them all :lol: - being classical musicians, they never got all together on the rehearsals).

I'm using my D505 snare, floor tom with muffler, and Cliff's K Customs (16 Crash, 18" Flat Ride).
Marta plays the bongos, castanets, chimes, shakers, etc.
We also have darbuka, cajon, and frame drum, played by 2 other percussionists.

I had a nice time on the rehearsals - violins, cellos, double basses, a horn section, acoustic guitars - and a harp even... :)
I hope everything goes well today...

Wish us luck guys... Will post pictures when I get them...

Hey Goki,

You are certainly getting to do a number of diverse things lately.

Continued success and momentum to you and Marta!
;)

:lol: :lol: :lol:

There won't be a need for that Kelly... I'm still here.

As Cliff said - a lot of different things in one period. All that ended with the concert last night - which went very well.
The audience loved it - and it was filmed for TV, so I hope I'll have a copy of that as well...
Someone else also mentioned pictures - so I guess I'll have that in a couple of days as well... :)

Now, I'm back to doing normal stuff - we have a gig tomorrow (Friday) night, with the Groove relation project (where the double bass and guitar are other musicians), and I hope we'll have a gig with Josephine's Suspenders in the next couple of weeks. And that would be it, for April... :)

Marta is busier than me - she's performing with a percussionist at his masters (degree) concert, so she needs to practice for that part too.
I'll finally be in the audience cheering, like a good husband... ;)
