'tis a rarity indeed, but here's a video of yours truly singing and playing bass parts a the Paul Koors Band concert in October, 2019. There's a fun jam at the end of the song, too.

From the youtube description:



Well done Greg.

I noticed you reaching up to the machine heads a couple of times. Were you having issues with the tuning, or were you doing deliberate tweaking mid-song? All done in a very cool manner whichever it was.

I really enjoyed that tune, Greg.
You've got great vocals and playing skills.

By the look on your face at the end,
you must have been very proud.
It is a great accomplishment.

Thanks, fellas!

I think I was "relieved" more than anything, having gotten through it without forgetting the words. I enjoy singing, so perhaps I'll do more. I appreciate the encouragement...

As far as "tuning-while-playing" is concerned, if I know for sure a certain string is out, and I can do it without too much interruption in the performance, I'll do it. It's risky, because you can make things worse if you're not careful...

If I was playing a solo tune, I'd probably stop, tune then resume. If I'm just jamming, then I'll do it in mid-jam, maybe even make the note I'm tuning a focal point for a moment so that I can hear thet it is correct before moving on.

Thanks for that extra detail of some of the realities of performance Greg.

That was top notch Greg. Loved the jam at the end as well… the cherry on top!

Thanks, Rand.

Paul wrote the lick for the jam at the end as well, he was a very creative person. I encourage you to check out his record.
