I was asked to be the opening act for a local band coming up in the next few months, so I've been doing a small local tour with my new one-man show lately, showing up at random friends houses with my small gig set-up and playing my 42 minute set for them to test it out as they sip on some beers and watch. The reviews have been pretty great so far, but I have to say that after playing this same set 7 or 8 times in the last week or so has produced some excellent results. I'm building better phrasing for each tune, as well as building up my stamina again, since I had lost quite a bit of muscle memory from my mishap a little over a year ago. It's a new era of guitar playing for me too since I'm doing all this on a Strat, which I'd never used before at length, and we're gelling nicely. After being stuck in a rut for a long time, actually many years, it's kind of like a breath of fresh air for me, and it's become exciting again.

The Plankxperience Tour (Summer/Fall 2015) setlist:

Rise
Son of Soothsayer
Screaming at an Empty Canvas
Canadian Mist
Blues in A
Blues in G
The Crave
Green Onions
If Heartaches Were Nickels
