Danville 4th of July Parade
Parade Banners
My band is looking forward to playing in this year’s Kiwanis 4th of July Parade in Danville. We’ll be on a huge flatbed truck, so we need some big banners. I prepared a modified version of our business card as vector graphics pdf, and sent it to this company BingBanners down in LA. I orderd two 3’x6’ vinyl banners, very reasonably priced, and the banners showed up the next day!
The logo is printed over a dark eggplant-purple color, and I wasn’t sure how it would turn out on vinyl, but they turned out fantastic! And I’m sure we’ll be able to use these at other gigs as well.
Here’s the artwork:
Followup: here’s how the banner looked on the truck in the parade. Maybe we should’ve gone even bigger!

Ultimate Guitar Stand
I’ve used the classic A-frame OnStage stand forever, but its time to upgrade to something better! There have been too many near misses, where my guitar nearly fell off its stand. And, these strange reactions between the foam and the guitar finish are just not worth it.
This is the Ultimate Support GS-1000 Pro. It has a very unique design with a sturdy asymmetric tripod base and telescoping top yoke that basically guarantees that the guitar won’t tip over.
