Hey what’s up my Mastodon #gearsquad friends? I’ve been traveling this week and have seen some things, one of which was a 10-piece band at a wedding reception that turned water into gasoline. Nothing but crowd pleasers and a packed dance floor both before and after dinner. Three lead singers. Trombone, trumpet and sax. Holy moly.

@NigelTufnel You just described what I do!!

(Ideally😜)

@samvarma Hey Sam I thought of your frequent “tonight’s office” photos throughout the show but didn’t want to tag you on my original post. I imagined this was the kind of apex you strive toward. They did a 90s medley that included Semi-Charmed Life and nailed the ‘doot doot doots’
@NigelTufnel You really only stay in business if you deliver that kind of experience… but on the other hand, if the people chose to spend the money on a band, in a way you have already won since they are willing you to be awesome!
@samvarma @NigelTufnel Long ago in a Minneapolis far far away, I played in a 10-piece tux band that regularly measured its successes by how much jewelry was lost on the dance floor. good times.
@Davi_Dblees @NigelTufnel We always look out for the worm & the wipeout 🤣

@NigelTufnel Brass & woodwind instruments, singing, dancing, transmutation of water to fuel… 🤔

Alchemical revelry! Way to ring in Spring. Well done, sir!

@_slotek_ Merely the observer, kind sir, but thankee
