Location: Fort worth Texas | I may have to sell my beloved Ovation 1867 Legend with OP-40 preamp, anyone have an idea of what I might get from her?
She's got the natural finish and in new condition with hardshell case.
I just got it January of this year. |

I don't know what it is called or where to get it but I bet someone here does. Sorry you have to sell it. |

Location: Fort worth Texas | ok ok, I know I have been outta the loop for a while, lost my job back in February now I'm trying to make a living with music.
Its tough, of coarse I know I dont have to tell you guys how hard that is.
Good news is I have started writting some music which is good.

Missed your great posts since you have been absent. Trying to live off your music is tough, and selling a great guitar is tough also, and I have sold a lot of good things to pay a few bills and buy some groceries.
If nobody here jumps up and buys it, put it on Ebay where there are thousands of potential buyers. I could offer to trade you some lousy, but interesting songs, but I would probably give them to you for nothing if you wanted them.
Good luck, no joke, good luck!!

Location: Fort worth Texas | Yeah its tough, I guess I will put it on Ebay,...just figured I would give you guys 1st crack at it.
I posted it in the buy sell trade forum but zero responses.
I sure hope I can at least get a fair price since its less than a year old...lol
I am about to start a second band in addition to my other band and my Karaoke business...but I would rather work my ass off to make a living than go back to work for corporate america again.
In case anyone is interested I am also selling a 93 Gibson Les Paul studio (black / Gold Hardware |

I am also putting a Festival together for the people in the Dallas Ft Worth area who might be interested, I got tired of waiting for local people to ask our band to play at one so decided to put together my own. Thats kind of the way things work,... if you dont like your current situation you have to make it change yourself. |

We have a yahoo group called Dallas area music, check it out a lot of good info there and good people, you can sign up for it on the database.
I thought you guys would like Firewater.
This stage is freakin awesome and lighting in house PA,.. its all there.

This place also has speakers all around the out side and in the restroom so when the band was playing a song I didnt perform on I took advantage to go to the restroom and could hear my band playing while I was pissing,... I have to say it was an odd experience.... you know you have arrived when you can go to the restroom and hear the band playing over the speakers...lmao
This place also has National acts on a monthly basis like, La Guns , Dokken, Blue October, Better than Ezra, Seven Mary Three etc etc. |

Location: Fort worth Texas | You guys can check our experience there out at www.TastyLixx.com and click on the photoes page and then the Firewater link.
Let me know what you think of the stage setup.
I think they had 60 or so 64 par cans around the stage with intellegent lighting also fire bowls on the stage columns built in flown speakers above the stage with subs installed underneath 40 channel Yamaha mixer.. the list goes on and on.
Probably the most impresive thing is that the 150ft long water fountain that shoots water 40 ft in the air with effects lighting under the water acuallt moved to the beat of the music the band played. |
