Bob Ramsey posted a blog postTrying to find performing opportunities
Trying to get involved in performing again. Always have difficulty with concept of self promotion. I need to find a way to get my playing "out there" but am at a loss as to the best way to do that. I have offered to play for free in a couple restaurants in order to get heard but find that I am usually taken advantage of. After playing a couple "freebies" I try to talk to them about $ and that is usually the end of my run. Any ideas would be very appreciated! thx!See More
"Great gig w/Howard Miller group last night. My best sound ever, even used fretless half the date. The band was in great form."

cd review
by Norman Darwen
The first four tracks encapsulate Arkansas-born Billy Jones. ...a wicked, raw, live version of Albert King's 'Personal Manager', 'my Hometown', a bleak, stark portrayal of the ghetto set to a busy but laid-back and bluesy musical commentary that epitomizes what some have defined as his "gangsta bluez" (...though it is perhaps even better on 'Ain't Good Lookin'), the rocking, rollicking, down-home, and subtly Howling Wolf inflected 'Blues Comes Callin'' and the… Continue

The tone controls are the real highlight of the amp. There is alot more flexibility than treble / mid /…
