Who doesn’t like playing on a big stage to a crowd who are there to enjoy live music? I’ve had the pleasure of playing some big stages over the years and they’re great fun…. but so is playing a packed little bar where the audience is literally on top of your pedal board! Ok, well, as long as you don’t mess with my gear, everything’s cool. I’ve also played some great Corporate gigs over the years and what surprised me the most about corporate gigs is that there are so many CEO’s that are dreaming of becoming Guitar Hero’s (lol, but they made a different choice for the sake of their bank accounts!) and how many of them love hearing great music. Music is truly a brilliant way of bringing people together to support a good cause and to celebrate an occasion, live music in particular brings such an amazing vibe to events and I love playing my part in sharing the art of great musicianship and entertainment.
