Tallbike in freezing rain POV.
I love sunny day riding (mostly to watch my wife) but being 10 ft. up in rain and sleet is really exhilarating.
It's also dreamy to warm up at home cuddling while scoring this groovy music together.
I should have named this vid, "How to make a pointlessly big deal about a burrito run"

my gear
Gear. I pull my guitar. street cube amp, cables, books and mic stand on my tallbike (the behemoth)'
We do punk rock clown gigs all over Portland OR. My wife carries a ton of stuff too.
I think this is the way to gig since gas being part of the overhead kills your living as a musician.
All my stuff gets wet, cold, banged around a lot but I have whittled it down to the toughest gear possible.
That cube amp is still trucking since 2010.
It runs on 6 AAs, we can do a little kid show with it in the morning and then plug it into the house system at a nightclub and that little amp becomes our mixer for the adult show.
I highly recommend the street cube. I wish Craftsman made a guitar. That said I once heard my banjo fall off a friend's tallbike.
I knew it was my banjo because it sounded great even falling to the street.
I was shocked that it hardly had a scratch.
I been playing 30 years but this was the decade I came to understand that the most expensive guitar isn't the toughest, it's often the case that expensive guitars are far more delicate.
