A big "Thank You" to our new friends and fans!

Hey everyone!

We've been having a blast out on the road with the Pat Travers Band. Pat, Kirk, Rodney, and Sandy have all been super cool and the shows have been fantastic! The response has been overwhelming and we have appreciated everyone who has talked with us, bought a cd or t-shirt, once again THANK YOU!!

Personally, I've had a lot of folks come up to me asking about the six string bass. Generally it's been "wow I've never seen that before" or "how do you do that?" For those who haven't seen a six string bass before, it's really not a big mystery. The middle four strings are the same as any four string bass in standard tuning (E, A, D, G). The two outer strings are B and C keeping the open strings ascending in Perfect 4ths (B, E, A, D, G, C). If you're not sure what a 4th is much less a "Perfect" 4th, email me and I'll be happy to go over some basic music theory with you.

I've been honored to get all the great feedback not only about the six string but also about the music. If my contribution to LoNero's music has inspired you in any way, especially to go out and make music yourself, I can't think of anything more gratifying. I love being able to get out and play the music I'm passionate about with three of the best musicians I know.

We've got more dates coming up with the Pat Travers Band. If you're in the area, come to the show and please come see us after the show!
