Bernard performed at Sullivan Hall in NYC on Friday night. He put together a great band (Will Calhoun and Doug Wimbish from Living Colour and blues guitarist Eric Gales). Alexandra Richards DJ'd before the show. Darrell Jones came out to watch his friend. It was a great show.

And I got to spend some with my friend Bitch (as well as some Shidoobees who made me feel very welcome).

Hi, Friday night May 18, 2012 I was at Barnard's gig at Sullivan Hall which is in Greenwich Village, NYC. It is a small club, with a nice bar, very few tables so we were on our feet the whole night. It was a really fun time partying with a bunch of my friends and Sweet Virginia! Bernard was fabulous, he is seriously getting better and better each time I see him. His sister and brother were his back-up singers plus 2 other people so he had 4 back up singers! Dave Wimbish is awesome on bass and Will Calhoun is hot on drums, Eric Gales, and some other guys who I didnt catch the names. It was a very tight sound. DJ ALexandra Richards started out the night with some reggae, Johnny Cash, Chuck Berry, Nancy Sinatra's These Boots Are Made for Walking, the last song she played was Harlem Shuffle, but not The Stones, it was a female vocalist from the original version. I was impressed with her, she was friendly and nice, smiling and more relaxed, no mom and dad in the house this time. She was drinking with Bernrds daughter and they looked about the same age. Darryl Jones was in the crowd with Waddy Wachel, they were cool and talking with the fans. I asked what they are up to. Waddy said he'll be touring with Stevie Nicks and Rod Stewart. Darryl said hes been working on a new bass guitar, I inquired about the Stones but he said he doesnt know anything, I said even if you know you cant say, he gave me a big grin but thats it. So heres some videos. Hope you like them!

Is this the way he played or the image is backwards?

Maybe he is obsessed with Hendrix. Or Macca.

Macca is a lefty but always play the bass for lefty, Jimi was a lefty but he could play both ways, he could just take a regular axe (for right handed players) and just turn it upside-down and play it equally well...

Is like playing a piano with all the notes backwards!
