  1. Nice content man! Using backing tracks was (still is) one of the most challenging things about our new show, but it made a difference, and definitely adds value to a show. And we are now able to play more things and actually use our musicianship for better things while the harmonic basement is being taken care of by something that we actually also produced ourselves, and its fun, and its great! Thanks for talking about it!
