I've been getting together lately with a few people to do some playing. There has been some random chatter about maybe playing a few songs out somewhere sometime... Well, I found out last weekend... we are doing an 8 song set at a tavern in a hotel... TONIGHT!  Two other 'bands' are playing... Hope all goes well. Got a few butterflies!

That is Fantastic, Exciting and I am sure a bit nerve wracking.  I hope you had a fun time with the evening Chris!

Had a blast. For the most part I think things went very well. On the last song the singer didn't come in on time for the 2nd or 3rd verse and created a little bit of momentary confusion but we managed to pull it back on track and move on.

I don't expect this to be a regular or frequent thing but perhaps every now and then.

Thus went the debut of "Wake Up Call". 

I may be able to scare up a clip from a cell phone...

Thanks for the interest and encouragement.

It must be so cool to be able to get up on stage and watch the audience smile. And better yet, when they hop along the dance floor.

Yeah I'm the guy in the big red t-shirt...

Great idea... however, my son has his hands full with my 3 grandkids...a job, house, coaching tee-ball... no time left for him to play! Hmmm Maybe I should take that very lightly used Martin back from him!
