After action review of the Stonehenge Fest 2023 gig on #Vashon, which wasn't terrible (maybe) but could have been a lot better.

(not as good as @mikebabyak gig stories)

Early morning pastel skies and Mount Rainier from the Vashon Ferry a couple of weeks ago.

Rehearsal went well.

Steve wasn't happy until the third guitar he tried. Richard will use the common drum kit, but bring a few extra cymbals. I just need to show with my #BassGuitar; they'll have the Ampeg amp and fridge waiting for me.

This is only their second gig since 2002 or so; last year at this festival was the first. It's my first with them. (or anyone else, I guess)

Will definitely be loud, might be good.

Supposed to be 81 and partly cloudy on #Vashon next Saturday. That's decent outdoor gig weather, I think.

Due extremely low tides causing steep loading ramps, vehicles that are long, w/low ground clearance or long rear overhangs should avoid #Edmonds/#Kingston route til 130p. Usual tide restrictions on #Vashon & #Mukilteo/#Clinton runs today as well: https://t.co/pYE2bG4nv0 https://t.co/ePe2J2k4iE

#HappeningNow: Due extremely low tides causing steep loading ramps, vehicles that are long, w/low ground clearance or long rear overhangs should avoid #Edmonds/#Kingston route til 1p. Usual tide restrictions on #Vashon runs daily though Friday 8/4: https://t.co/pYE2bG4nv0 https://t.co/14BNjrbHWT

Unfortunately, this could be both my first and last gig with them. As I prepare to move away next summer, I'll have less time to play, and honestly they really ought to find someone closer to their own age (and politics) to play with.

So if any of you know a rock #BassGuitar player in the Puget Sound area who likes to complain about kids these days, I know some guys who could use your help.

Yeah, you gotta go to #Vashon but you can use their #Ampeg. Worth it.

Our #Fauntleroy Terminal is out of service until further notice due to necessary maintenance. The #Vashon to #Southworth terminal and the #Tahlequah terminal at the south end of Vashon remain open. Seattle bound traffic will be diverted to #ColmanDock.

Extreme low tides will occur on our #Vashon Island routes (including #Tahlequah) as well starting tomorrow, 7/14. Vehicles that are long, with low ground clearance or long rear overhangs should avoid traveling on this route during the following dates and times: https://t.co/Aq92kxxHje

I've seen no marketing and can't find it anywhere so I still sort of doubt its existence

but allegedly #StonehengeFest 2023 on #Vashon Island will happen on Saturday, 12 August.

(We are supposed to be playing in one of the evening slots.)

Here's last year's poster.
