January 4, 2012
It's been a while since I last wrote a message. I apologize for that. I haven't been super diligent about this. I just wanted to say that 2011 was a good year. We were busy... but busy is always happy.
Lil' Ed & NateA couple highlights included opening for G. Love and Special Sauce, Kenny Wayne Shepherd, and a couple dates opening for Lil' Ed & the Blue Imperials. Lots of fun and we met a lot of new friends.
We started a new record and have been working on it when time and funding allows. Hopefully, and I'm keeping all my appendages crossed, we'll wrap it up this year.
Pete and I have been playing every Tuesday night for the last couple of months at the Blue Front Lounge in Steelton Pa. We're trying to get something a little different rolling... blues and roots music. Its been a little bit of a slow start but its picking up. If you're not doing anything come out and try some great food and see some music. You never know who might show up.
As most of you know we're prepping for the International Blues Challenge (IBC) in Memphis, TN. We'll be down there playing Jan 31-Feb 4. We're going down there to represent the Blues Society of Central PA (BSCP). This is our home town blues society and we're really hoping to do well. This will be our second time at the IBC and we just want to represent well. We've been rehearsing a lot for the last couple of months and we're bringing Kid Cameron down there to play the guitar. While it would be nice, and I want to move as far as we can... I'll be happy to go down there and play our best. It's really up to God what ultimately happens.
Keep an eye on the website for updates and special shows. Hopefully we'll have some new swag for you this year. Have a great New Year and Best Wishes
Thanks for the support this year and hopefully we'll see you all in 2012.
