The WBC sends a solo/duo and a band to compete in the IBC in Memphis.  I'm not much of a joiner but I'm set to play in the initial showcase this Sunday.  Vocals are factored into the score so I'm pretty much guaranteed not to be competitive.

None the less it's at good room and it should draw a good crowd.  I'm working on my set list and finalizing what gear to bring.  The L-00 with the internal K&K pickup is probably the most bulletproof.

It is frustrating that they won't let me bring my own sound engineer.  They said that making everyone use the same sound guy "levels the field."  Well, if everyone used the same drummer it would level the field even more I suppose.
