The End of an Era - my band SoulerCoaster performs The Final Gig tonight
It's been a 15 year ride, but the time has come to say Goodnight. Bittersweet to say the least, but all good things must come to an end. I am already working with another group, and will be back onstage in just a few short weeks.

2. 15 years is a good run
I've been there a few times, never had a band that mad it that long though.

You just know somehow when it's time to finally put it to bed. Good luck with the next one! :hi:

Got to get that dirty lowdown!

5. 15 years with one band is a career! I hope you love your new band as much!
All the best.

7. We kept the core of the band (nine musicians) together for 10 years.
The same lineup for the last ten years. Yes, it has been a career - longest time I stayed employed at one place.

The new band just exudes The Funk - they are all jazz cats, but Tower of Power and Muscle Shoals jazz cats. It's a great group, and lots of fun!

8. I used to love playing bass to that stuff...don't have the fingers anymore,
but I still appreciate the music.

Enjoy!
