Well hello to you all and happy spring? The snow is almost gone and the mercury is rising by the day. The Geese have been moving out for the last few weeks. Is it really over? Oh and we changed the clocks too, so as the song goes "In a country that turns back time"... {Al Stewart} that would be us.
Anyway lets get to this week in Short Change Ville: Last Friday night we were at Davy's and had a Great show, and we needed it as it had been almost a month really since we all played together in a an Electric Show. The crowd was a bit light but once again, on a Friday night it poured outside. When the weather is bad at night the crowd is generally light. It seems that people in the winter time just lose the "want to" come out and jam.
Then Saturday Night came, and we joined the Stinky Boys party in Susquehanna PA. The Moose Lodge was a fun place and we had a good crowd that once again for the second week in a row - "Rocked" and "Rolled" literally. The night would not be complete without a few tunes from the Stinky boys Trio. It's always a fun time as we were "Takin' Care of Business". Thanks for the invite boys, and we hope we can do it again real soon.
Time Line Updates: We continue work this weekend as we try to wrap up the final work on the Full Circle CD. Hopefully we will have it ready by the end of March, let's keep your fingers crossed.
April 25th is the big Feed The People CHOW Run at the Central Hotel in Nineveh. We have six bands and six hours of creating and jamming, for a mere $5 donation. The party starts at noon that Sunday, we can't wait!
And finally our 2010 fund raiser for the band will begin Memorial Day weekend at the Central Hotel as well. The annual "win the band for a day" raffle. The tickets will go on sale beginning on Memorial Day weekend and will run till Labor day, where we will draw a winner for the 2011 summer season. So, get your tickets soon as they will be limited once again to just 200. There are pretty good odds there.
This week's shows: Friday night we're at the Hitchin' Post for an Unplugged show that begins at 8:30 pm. The Hitchin' Post is located on Rt. 7 just below Belden Hill in Harpursville. So, come down and see us....
Saturday we are playing at a Benefit show up to Mary's Tavern (across from Lowes off Front Street. It's an early start at 1PM. Please come down and show your support for our friend Ty who is having surgery today. There will be a $10 donation at the door, which includes music. The event runs from noon to 7 pm. Bobby's band Half Baked will be the host band for the event. We Hope to see you all there.
