Savannah

You don't normally expect cold weather in South Georgia, but on Friday and Saturday the cold weather really blew in. On Friday, we played for the Savannah Folk Society and stayed on with Hank the promoter at his beautiful home on Tybee Island. The crowd was very receptive and although we had some problems with our sound gear, we were able to get things up and running to start the show on time. It always causes a little extra stress though, when you have to deal with technical issues leading up to a show. The gain on our in ear monitors was overloaded too. Although there is a limiter which keeps the volume to an acceptable level the overload caused a lot of distortion, which I wasn't able to fix immediately with the outboard volume controls. I took out the ear buds and everything sounded clean in the house, but in my in ear monitors it sounded a bit like an avant garde Ozzy Osbourne concert. Savannah was gearing up for the St. Patrick's festivities and the town was buzzing. Here are some pics from Tybee Island and Savannah.
