Greetings again to everyone. By the time you read this week’s blog, it may be August. My goodness where has 2012 gone? It’s amazing how the clock just keeps ticking away week by week.
We had a couple of good shows that have come and gone last weekend. Our early show on Saturday was the 6th Annual Blueberry Festival in Coventry NY. If you missed this one, you missed a great event put on by the Coventry Fire Department and friends. There were craft vendors, food vendors, a terrific strong man competition, mud bogs, and some live Short Change music. All you needed was a lawn chair and you were there. We even got to jam out with Frank Revoir who is running in this year’s fall election for Chenango County Judge. What a nice guy, and he plays really well and sings pretty good too. Welcome aboard Frank to the SCB musical guest post located on the Short Change Band website.
So just when we thought we had a great day of music, we headed out to the second venue of the day - Harry and Melissa Pig Roast. We met some great people and had some more great food and drink which made for another great party. After it was all said and done, our day ended up ten hours later that evening. (Now that's a full day of music!)
We have played continual events before or gigs for up to seven or eight hours making a full day, but I can't remember a day where we played, packed up and played from noon to about midnight in more than one location. (And we did chase some rain drops too) Harry, thanks for inviting Jack along for fun.
Then seven hours later we headed out to our next venue - 18 holes of golf with the Short Change Band (and not to forget our mascot Jack- who followed us around again) We actually placed in the top ten, scoring an incredible 4 under par for our little captain and crew.
When it was all done, we decided to call ourselves "The Skull Crushers" hackers at best, and we felt pretty good with Sunday’s results. “The Skull Crushers” move onto Delaware County in late August for yet another tournament. (We can't wait!)
This week we have one show (it’s a private show) in Hallstead, PA for an installation dinner. So we will see of you out at our next public show sometime soon. (check our website for locations near you) www.shortchangeband.com
Well be good, I gotta run. Peace and love,
Mikee Dee^^
