Short Change Band - Beginning of 2012

Welcome people into 2012.. The boys are back in town after a couple of (much needed) weeks off to recharge and redevelop. We all managed to get together one weekend for "dinner and a movie" and last week many of us once again were in different parts of the country. Friday night we're back for our first show of the New Year. The weekend plans to be a busy one as well with three events planned... So here we go:

FRIDAY EVENING- 1/20 - AT 8PM - Catch us at the HITCHIN' POST located high above on Belden Hill Rt.7

SATURDAY EVENING - 1/21 - We are back to where it all began some 30 years ago- THE CENTRAL HOTEL & TAVERN- showtime - 6pm. Come out and Wish Bobby a Happy Birthday.

And you can bet after all that excitement, we'll be locked and loaded as we once again head back to Goble Studios an put the final touches onto the "Back To Basics" album. It's been eighteen months in the works and it's almost done. The running time is well over 45 minutes and probably our finest work to date. This will be our fifth CD in our catalog. (Wow, where did that 10 years go?)

And finally in closing, we have a couple events you may want to put on your calendar. The weekend of January the 28th, we're playing a new venue for the 2012 calendar. We will be at BABCOCK'S - in Wells Bridge. It's just past the Franklin exit on I-88 and located on Rt. 7. For all of our "east end" supporters. We know of two birthday's we will be celebrating that evening and we would love to have as many of our friends come out and support us. The Showtime is at 9pm. If you have never been to Babcock's, it's a very large arena style venue with a huge dance floor and stage. Come on down and check it out.

And finally we will begin working on in the upcoming weeks JAMBOREE IV- "Share the Music and Feed the People show. Our line up is filling up fast for the annual benefit with planned performances from the The Wild Ones, The Short Change Band, and even our friends The Blue J's and a host others will be back this year. So, put the Date - SATURDAY APRIL 28th on your Calendar. The Fest begins at 12 noon. And once again sound will be provided by GF Sound out of Glen Falls. (Thanks Gary) We'll have Prizes/ Raffles / and food... All for a good cause- help feed our community.

That's all I got- hope to see you this weekend- peace out,

-Mikee^Dee...
