After watching it a few times, I was inspired to fumble through my music collection and ended up listening to the entire Mark Egan/Vinnie album. The inevitable result of listening to such a quality Vinnie clip is a rekindling of my love for the...

Re: Socal Venue questions

I've played Gallagher's Pub in Ocean Beach. Same place? It's a small Irish pub about 100 ft off the beach. The acoustics are pretty decent for the layout. Sort of a long-hall with the stage in the corner. The PA we used was solid if memory serves. Usually a great vibe and good crowds at happy hour a...
