For those of you who missed the 3rd set Saturday night at the Ellwood City Moose or if you missed the show..... shame on you!!!! We played a "this is the part of the show where we pull it out our A**" section that included Whipping Post (which as Moe put it, we havent played since 1902), La Grange and Flirtin With Disaster (neither of which we have ever played together before last night). We had a GREAT night and man oh man were the first two sets smokin. We changed up the set list and really played well. Adding Long Haired Country Boy by Charlie Daniels and sung by Brian has given the crowds something to sing along to and Green Grass and High Tides with Moe and Frank dueling on guitar always gets the crowd on their feet after the song screaming and applauding. Great to see Moe's brother DJ and young Elliott, Anthony and Joey (Moe's kids), Debi, Frankie and Sherri. (missed ya Antoinette!), John and Kathy. New friends and fans Rob, Melissa (sorry we didn't play the tune of the same name for you), Randy, Wiz, Holly, Amanda (Holly's sis) and any and everybody else I forgot or failed to mention. The weather was fricken beautiful which usually hurts the draw of the crowd, but we still had a decent size group.
This is a GREAT group of guys we have assembled. LOTS of talent. Next week is the Manor Legion. Hope to see all the folks from Irwin there. Love you all my brothers. Couldn't do it without you!

P.S. Sorry about steppin on you Brian in the third set. I thought you were done speaking which is why I started gabbin to the crowd. Maybe we should steal a buzzer/light system that we can push a button that a red light goes on when we are talking to the crowd, and goes out when we are thru on stage. Yeah...RIIIIIIGHT! As soon as I steal a new amp and a telecaster to play on stage, and a new PA and some more lights so we can unemploy some of those cheap labor Chinese who made our current light show. LOL
