OK, looks like we’ll be the first band to play at the Founder’s Day festival in McGregor on Aug. 19. We’ll be at the stage at the intersection of 4th Street and Madison starting at 11 a.m. We’re scheduled to play till 1 p.m., so hope to see y’all there. I hear Barry is contemplating entering the chili cookoff, while Bob may be souping up an old riding lawnmower for the lawnmower races .

Fun (but challenging) show last night

Our show at Hog Creek last night saw the maiden voyage of our new in-ear monitor system … needless to say, I wouldn’t recommend trying IEMs for the first time at a gig–do yourself a favor and get used to them first. But I think we’ll love ‘em in the long run. Thanks to Steve and Tony for taking on the technical challenges of configuring our IEMs for the first time. We also had Jessica Gardner on hand to film the first-ever After Midnight documentary … Looking forward to seeing the footage.

Had a small handful of spirited dancers in the second and third sets. And it’s always nice to see some newlyweds come to a show after we played their wedding reception a few weeks back. Had a pretty ambitious set list and managed to get through, though clumsily, a couple of our more challenging numbers (“Light My Fire,” “Love You Madly”), but the show goes on. Tough to be polished when you haven’t played together in about a month.

So, we now have more gear than we know what to do with. Anbody interested in doing a graduate assistantship in roadie ergonomics? We’re going on four bad backs. Show on Sunday, then a break till Aug. 20 when we play La Fiesta again. Hope to see y’all there!

NO COVER this Friday @ Hog Creek

Hiatus till July 31

After a busy week of shows at the Carleen Bright Arboretum and Bosque River Stage (add to that a wedding reception at the MCC Art Center), we’re takin’ a brief respite … But be sure to catch us at Hog Creek Icehouse July 31 from 9 till midnight. $6 cover charge. After that, you can see us again at La Fiesta restaurant (Franklin Ave. location) on Aug. 20 at 7:30 p.m.

Also, be sure to check out our new Media page, which contains some nice video footage of some of our past performances. Thanks to Richard, Jessica, and Mike for the vids!
