Post Show Write Up & Some Pics
Posted by Musician | Filed under Performances, Photos
A couple of nights ago we played our show at the Gourmet Gallery to a packed house. It was a lot of fun! The drink cooler definitely had a lot less in it at the end of the evening, than when we started our first set at 8. Apparently even our photographer had a beer or 2…

It was really nice to see some familiar faces that we hadn’t seen in a while. Since Diane switched the nights from Saturday to Friday for live music, some people have found it difficult to make it in. I was talking to a couple who used to come to our shows all the time, but who I haven’t seen in a while. They told me they found it really hard to get there on time from work. I’m just happy they made it in on Friday, and even happier that they stayed right through to the end. Thanks! Hope to see you again in December!
A big “thank you” to all of you who came out and supported us! There are so few live music venues in Abbotsford, so supporting live music is very important if we value it. So thanks again. You guys are great!
Now poor Gary has for a long time complained that he is always either not in a picture, or stuck behind the sax player (me), or his own cymbals, but this time, he was actually caught in the act…See for yourself….

Here’s one Gary should like, my head stuck behind Art’s guitar for a change. Seriously though, I like the shot. Steve’s looking happy. Art’s looking concentrative. Gary & I are still in the pic, but the focus is on the guitar and bass players.

We also managed to capture quite a bit of great solo videos during the evening. Once Art has had a chance to see and hear them all, he can make a decision about where and how he thinks we should use them.
Deception is the Abbotsford-based blues band formed in the mid-90s by guitar player Art Panchishin.
