Yes!

How do you like the Ad-999? I’ve got a 900 and love it for recording but it’s far far too dark for playing live so I’m using an old DE7 instead. Maybe a 999 is worth a scope?

Love the silver JM w/ with hats too!

The 999 is pretty great. Still very very dark though. I would personally like it a little brighter but it sounds so delicious and smooth as it is. Perfect analogue delay for home use IMHO. Live I've always gravitated to digital delays if I'm going to use one at all for the extra clarity.
Silly Rabbit, don't you know scooped mids are for kids?

It isn't a pretty picture, but it sure did sound good.

Pardon the Tele, it was a backup, I swear. Didn't touch it all night.

God bless the Midway. I worked there for a year or two "doing sound" (putting up a kick mic and a few vocal mics), and it was great. Awesome group of people they have there.

Amen, brother. Maybe we crossed paths sometime between '08-'22.

I had those amps up loud. Had the engineer mic the Bassman and crank the lows and low mids. The girlfriend of an employee told me after it was the loudest set she's ever seen there in 5 years of being there all the time.

I hope she didn't see the single tear roll down my cheek amidst the sweat.

And what a great staff. When they read the citation from the State Congress and letter from the mayor on Saturday, it got real dusty in there real quick, based on all the watery eyes.

It's definitely possible that we ran into each other, I was there on Tuesdays, Fridays and Saturdays in 2015 - 2017ish.

What I love about the Midway is that they pay bands. Even if no one showed up to the gig they'll at least toss you free drinks and a little gas money. You can't say that for most places in town. The owner, Jay, is a real solid dude. I'm not sure if Lenny or Mike are still tending bar but they're the best.

Shoreline Gold! The pic does look a bit Desert Sand though.
