a private Prince concert. A amazing night.
Prince played till 4am in the mornign:)

You may not have heard of him before but you will now. Josh Dunham has been with Prince for several months now. We personally had a chance to see Josh play with Prince twice this year in NY. Once at the Nokia theater in Times Square and a private party at "Butter" a hot club in the NYC.

Josh uses a EBS TD650 head and has been looking for a new cabinet for a long time. After trying different cabs out he decided to go for a custom Brooklyn Gear cab. Gerry Doyle of www.doyleaudio.com who is the brain and brawn behind the Brooklyn Gear cab worked very closely with Josh to come up with a custom 2x15 cab with custom grill covers.

You can check out Josh along with his lovely wife who is also the drummer in the band with Prince at the RIO in Las Vegas.

Bass Player Live 2006

This year Brooklyn Gear exhibited at Bass Player Live www.bassplayerlive.com in NY sponsored by Bass Player Magazine. It was a great time but just so loud. Hopefully next year Bass Player will pick a location that has higher ceilings.

Enough with the grumblings......Again it was Bass Player Heaven. There were terrific clinics being run and amazing players just walking around and trying out gear. Players with little experience were especially encouraged to pick up a instrument and play. That is what it is all about.

Our booth was slammed and so many players wanted to check out all our gear including the Ken Smith Designed Basses "KSD" that is the rave on all the message boards. What got players real attention was being able to play thru the new custom Brooklyn Gear cabinets. In fact Gerry Doyle of Doyle Audio Engineering www.doyleaudio.com the brain and brawn behind our cabinets was in town for the show.

EBS was a also a hit at the show and EBS rigs were requested and found in several other bass builder booths.
