Your female fiddle player plays better than Chuck. Nice job!!!

Wild Rice Chris · May 22nd, 2008, 12:14 AM

Thanks!

Rich played the applewood Rice tele #101 the pine Rice Osprey #094
I played my Rice fretless bass #065 and my '82 G&L L-1000 Bass.
Jessica played an Alvarez 5 string electric violin and '95 Fender Stratocaster Special.
Andy played Gretsch and Ludwig drums.

The band is my dad, brother, sister, and me.

Here are shots of the guitars and basses..

I uploaded a few other pics, if anyone's interested they're here:

It's definately good to be back with this band. We gigged regularly for five years. I hope we do it again!

Chris-I don't know if it's your dad or brother but are those twins he is playing through? Looks like a TU-2, TS9, Boss Chorus, and I can't make out the last one.

Wild Rice Chris · May 22nd, 2008, 01:01 AM

It's a pair of '72 Deluxe Reverbs, the left one with JBL K-120 for my dad (Rich) and the right one with EV 15F for my sister's strat (Jessica).
TU-2, Keeley modded TS-9, CE-2, and DD-5.
I had a Bad Bob Boost and TU-2 on the bass.
Strat was straight in.

Great playing.

You guys need some horns.

Tell your dad to get busy!

cheers

Sounds good! Your sis plays a mean fiddle! That applewood tele really looks great.
