Feelin' Mighty Dizzy

Yes, that's exactly where my headspace is at, just like our song "No Sleep" says -- feelin' mighty dizzy!

It just seems like everything has been a completely crazy swirl since our return from the IBC down in Memphis a month ago. Day jobs are frantic, trying to notch out time to finish the new CD, last minute preparations for a certain guitar players wedding to the most awesome fiance a guy could ask for! Where does it possibly all end?!?!?!?

Thought I'd have time to do an official recap of the Memphis trip, but that just hasn't seemed to happen, so I will just go ahead and sum up the main thoughts...

THANK YOU Capital Area Blues Society for continuing to give us such incredible support and for making our trip to Memphis a reality! You're the best!

THANK YOU all our family, friends and fans who made the trip to Memphis (and there sure as heck were a lot of you down there). You continue to be the reason we do what we do and your love is the thing that drives it all!

The Memphis trip was a blur -- but it was extremely awesome blur -- we didn't make the finals, but we sure left 'em knowing who we were and what we were about when our 2 performances at the Rum Boogie Cafe were done! We had the best time ever and are already looking forward to the chance to do it all over again in the future! All of the bands that we saw competing on Beale Street were incredible -- to get to hear all the styles, flavors and ideas about the blues from all over the world was an experiance that you can't put any kind of monitary value on! We are humbled and honored to have been able to take part in it all!

OK, so enough of my typing already, time to make some music. I'm certain that we're playing somewhere right near you very soon, so please check the gig calendar at our website and GET THERE!

See ya!

Peace, love and music!
