Gig at St James Hall

I've been invited to play a benefit show at St. James Hall in Vancouver on March 8th. The band is killer and rehearsals have been a ton of fun. The group is led by Richard Lowy, and I'll be playing bass with:

• Saffron Henderson and Camille Henderson - Voice
• Eric Reed - Lead Guitar
• Martin Fisk - Percussion
• and Stan Wardle - Harmonica

From the event page:

Stratocaster Pickup Height

I've always wondered about this. In the past I've simply raised the pickups until they sounded right to my ear. It turns out there's a bit of a method to it.

Demo

Overdue

It's overdue
Like an old library book that's been sitting quietly
In a musty, dusty attic
And all the fertilizer in the barn
Won't make it grow any faster
It is happening at its own pace
But it's overdue
