This was our last show of the year.  We were welcomed by the regulars who were used to the routine metal bands they usually feature at On the Y.  The owner hooked up the sound and did an excellent job.  We played a new Ryan Sweatt jam that rocked tha house.  I would like to return to this bar, even if its just for drinks....

we will be working on recording a new CD and creating new material for a few months... see you at next year's shows!

every wednesday is open mic night at Old Ironsides hosted by Lare Crawley.  Lare was kind enough to give us the featured performer spot at 10pm (30mins).  it was nice to have the whole band up there with me, i'm usually by myself at open mic or with Art the harmonica player.  the crowd was good, so was the beer...

this was a great show!  everyone who worked for the fair was really cool with us (the transporters from the lot to the stage, the stage manager and the soundman).  there was always a nice size crowd and we got some good responses.  tony (acting manager) got rid of all our cd's and shirts and passed out hella bumper stickers.  hopefully next year we will play on multiple days!
