    Playing in Melbourne June 5th

    Hi all

    My originals band, The FAQs, are playing at Mr Boogie Man Bar in Hoddle St Collingwood on Sunday June 5th. It's a late arvo / early evening gig, and we're scheduled to be on 2nd (of 3 bands) at 6pm.

    Here's a clip of one of my songs from our last show at Tago Mago on April 24th. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HKgajlo5EyU

    I don't think my PBG 12-string will be finished by then, but hopefully the band will be a sufficient attraction...

    Cheers

    Might see if I can pop down rjl, it is a day after one of my own band's shows so I'll have to see how busy I am that day, but if I'm free expect a hello from me!

    Hey Rob I watched about 2.5 tracks on your YT channel, sounds good. I assume you are singing with the strat ?

    don't rush your build for the sake of a gig, plus you really need to play the neck in a bit.
    Current Builds and status
    scratch end grain pine tele - first clear coat on !
    JBA-4 - assembled - final tweaks
    Telemonster double scale tele - finish tobacco burst on body and sand neck

    Completed builds
    scratch oak.rose gum Jazzmaster - assembled needs setup
    MK-2 Mosrite - assembled - play in
    Ash tele with Baritone neck - neck pup wiring tweaks and play in

    Guilty as charged on the singing front. We have three songwriters in the band and sing lead on our own songs with various permutations of backing vox. Rehearse about once a fortnight and play every month or two...
