Well hello people, I hope all is well in your world this week. The end of January is almost here and frankly it could not come sooner for my taste. Why did I ever pick this year to quit going to Bike Week, I'll never know. I sure could use some fun, sun, riding, and hit the beach right about now. Anyway, on to the weekend of past.
Friday night we were at Davy's Last Chance Saloon in Chenango Forks, and it was an awesome show. It was as close to a "10" in performance I think we could score it. Amazing after taking off two weeks how tight a show we could perform. The crowd stayed all night and so did we.
Saturday night we were back to the Central Hotel & Tavern for another stellar performance. The evening was filled mostly with friends and family who came up to celebrate KW’s retirement from Frito Lay (36 years later) here we are!We had some guests come up and play with us on stage Saturday. We had Jeffery “A” sit in the night with the band and we would like to thank him for his contributions. (We love that mandolin) And also our friends from Pawn Shop for coming up and playing a set of their fine musical selections. Sweet show! (You should have been there)And Bobby, Chopper and Donnie, thank you guys for some awesome spreads of food. Nobody went home hungry on Saturday night, that's for sure.
On Sunday we had our first meeting to begin work on this year’s “Run for Chow” - “Share the Music and Feed the People” show. The event will be on a Saturday this year, April 30th 2011. The first band starts playing at 1:00pm. Please mark this important date on your calendar. People who are less fortunate then yourself depend on it just to eat. We will have tons of door prizes, raffles, 50-50's and just a ton of good things that day for all to enjoy. More details and the band lineup will be announced as we move along here in the next few weeks. We will also be selling our year number two commemorative tee-shirts along with a few still packed away from last year. We're indoors so mark this as a 'rain or shine' event. Last year we raised almost 2300.00 for the food bank. Let’s try and double that figure this year.
Our weekend lineup for Feb. 4th and 5th 2011 is as follows. Friday Evening - VFW hall in Endicott, so don't miss this show as we head west this weekend for a change. We'll be rockin' by 8:30pm and the VFW is open to the general public for this show as well. There is no show this Saturday, as the band is going bowling!. (oh boy, look out)
And finally, best of luck to our good friend Ty, who just recently purchased the former Country Rock Cafe (I guess you would call East Laurens - 6 miles from Oneonta) The new bar will be called "Lumpys" Road House" (sweet huh?) And, I hear that Magic Eddie is helping out in the food department. Ride Sally Ride - Can't wait! Thursday night will be Ladies night, Friday is Country night, and Saturday is Classic rock night. Sunday is Blues in the afternoon. Ohh boy...
Be well, be cool, and we hope to see you at a show real soon,
Mikee^Dee
