This is a shot from our first gig as 50 Shades of 60, taken at an outdoor event in the Palm Springs area. About 100 people attended. The reaction was great and it was wonderful playing to such an appreciative and lively crowd. Lots of dancing.
On the left is Randolph Winters, author of the Ancient Blood series (available on Amazon). He played keyboards, guitar and sang a couple of songs. Jay Rockbank is a well known Palm Springs singer/musician. When someone from the audience took over his bass guitar duties, he did his best Elvis and Mick Jagger impressions, prowling the stage and involving the audience. Besides playing guitar I sang a few songs. Louis Rivest (far right, with the white guitar) joined us from Vancouver, where he’ll return to his own band in April.
