I open 4 Nickelback, Sloan, The Tea party, The headstones,the list go's on but my fav is by far Fishbone...
I played in bands in high school. I picked up the bass again a few years ago, once my son was a teenager and I had some free time. I have been gigging with a variety of baby boomer bands all around New York City. There are lots of us "mature" folks who are picking up our instruments again. You're never too old to rock!
I play in two bands, I play bass for a girlfriends band doing 50% own stuff mixed with covers from those luvely guns n roses chappies with a smattering of Guano Apes etc. I also play guitar with a commercial cover band doing cheesy top 40 stuff for weddings funerals barmitzvahs etc
Currently in a band with most of the guys I played with 20 years ago. Here's a video of us doing In Memory of Elizabeth Reed. This was at the end of a long night and at one point both my hands cramped up during the solo section. Still posted it, since it was the first time we had done it live.
