So the show was a blast… difficult but a big success. Unlike all other venues I’ve played, this time around I hooked up my instruments to my computer, mixed it digitally and output it into the bar’s stereo system which aired not only inside but outside to their patio as well. Best of all, I setup my projector’s screen in the window so that people passing buy could see the concert that was inside. This technique worked like a charm.
The weather was great so there was a great deal of people sitting outside on the patio smoking cigarettes but by the end of my set when I pulled out the ukelele, people from outside were flooding in. I think I’ve finally settled on “Cuba” being my single… singer/songwriters who play guitar are a dime a dozen, but those who play the ukelele are few and far between. As they say, 90% of the world has a visual sensory preference and the combination of the ukelele and projector worked like a charm.
Aside from the show, I spent a bit of time wondering around the city and snap a few photos of some spectacular architecture, as well as some fine cuisine. As a general comment, everything here is miniature compared to North America. In fact, the largest McDonald’s cup is even smaller than the small cup we have at McDonald’s back home. Did you know you can also buy beer at McDonald’s? You can even drink alcohol in the streets with no restrictions.
France has been a real adventure with hospital trips, groupies following me from Valence to Paris and so much more. I finally feel like I’m living the dream, and it’s now time to dream of bigger things. So here’s to bigger and better things
