EuroAussie Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 Nice one Larry, good to see you here mate. I notice you mike up the SJ,Ive never tried that method but thought about it. Is there any special tricks or approach to make it sound right and avoid feedback ? Do you play at low volume levels or moderate, or 11 .. ?

Is there any special tricks or approach to make it sound right and avoid feedback ? Do you play at low volume levels or moderate, or 11 .. ? No special tricks, EA. With the SJ, I cut the GAIN down a bit more and the LOWS down on the board because of that wonderful "Gibson low-end"! I've been using those Sure Beta mics. A really good mic. I keep the monitor level down a bit also. That's where I found most of the feedback came from. Thanks for all the kind remarks! How are ya enjoying that Aaron Lewis SJ?

larryp58 Posted April 19, 2013 Author Share Posted April 19, 2013 Hey Larry.....let's see your acoustic song list!!! What's up, Wiley! Most of the time I just go with what comes to mind. I try to give a good mix of a lot of stuff. Folks seem to like the classic stuff the most. A good songlist of mine I play a lot is: 1. KodaChrome-Paul Simon 2. Tequila Sunrise-Eagles 3. Blackbird-Beatles 4. Wagon Wheel- Old Crow Medicine Show 5. Lodi- CCR 6. Old Man-Neil Young 7. Campaigner-Neil Young 8. Brain Damage-Pink Floyd (always a crowd pleaser! Go figure!) 9. I Love Your Love The Most- Eric Church 10. Promises-Eric Clapton 11. Country Road- James Taylor 12. Sweet Baby James-James Taylor 13. High Flyer- UFO 14. Choices- George Jones (yes, George freakin' Jones!!!) 15. Pancho and Lefty- Merle Haggard/Willie Nelson 16. Angel Flyin' To Close To The Ground-Willie Nelson 17. Give A Little Bit- Supertramp 19. All I Can Do Is Write About It-Lynyrd Skynyrd 20. 4 + 20-CSNY (another crowd favorite) Some of the newer songs I play are: 1. Like Jesus Does-Eric Church 2. Fire On The Mountain-Marshall Tucker Band 3. Over The Hills and Far Away-Led Zeppelin 4. Free Fallin'-Tom Petty 5. Vicious Circles-Aaron Lewis Once I start playin', as you are well aware of, the crowd will ask for certain songs. If I know the song reasonably well, I play it! That approach seems to involve the crowd more, and they reward you more for it (when you pass the hat!) When you give them what they want, it really doesn't matter if you "nail it" that well. It works for the folks here in the Carolinas, maybe it'll work for you California boys! Your cafe gigs are a good venue to try a few of 'em! Change it up, try something unexpected! The crowd loves it! Keep pickin', Wiley!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
