Columbia SC >> NEW BROOKLAND TAVERN

So we played Columbia again tonight. Really I guess it was the first time. We opened for Winston Audio about a month ago and it was awesome. Tonight was the new music night and we got on the bill and killed it. Kent and I may have been a bit tipsy. It is not confirmed yet but either way it was a blast. We made some new friends and hopefully got the opportunity to book more shows. The last time we played it was pouring and the venue had multiple leaks with one right over the stage. Not just the general stage but the exact place I was standing. If i moved the water would drop right on my pedal board or worse right on my Tele pickups. Not awesome was the feeling of the chance of electrocution but I played and survived. Tonight we pulled up to the venue and guess what, rain. It was raining again but not as bad. After talking to the sound guy I felt much better when he told me they had fixed a lot of the leaks and the stage no longer was a sieve but an actual roof. Anyway I guess good things come to those who wait, so columbia we’re coming back and we are going to rock it over and over again. Hope you are ready because we are. See you soon!

Hanging from the rafters at The Grey Eagle!

What a way to start out the new year. For our first show in 2010 we played for over 350 of our most incredible following at The Grey Eagle in Asheville NC. It was over the top and put me into the rafters, literally!

I didn’t think it all the way through but before I knew it I was already hanging from the rafters. I can’t believe I didn’t hit something on the way down. The energy there was uncontainable. Everybody was there in the moment at the same time. That’s the beauty of music, it brings us all into the same time together and when it’s right it unites us into a single moment where we all can let go and be crazy. It was right! Believe me, we didn’t play flawless but it was right! Check out some great shots of the night from David Childers (our photographer) CLICK HERE

Justin Miles opened up for us with 3 brand new songs. He quite successfully warmed up the crowd. I was truly impressed and would have him open for me anywhere anytime. He looked so natural although I know he was freaking out!

We also had the help of several guest drummers that joined us in the end of The Edge of the World. These boys did an amazing job! They lifted the mood (and volume!) higher than I could have ever done alone. Their names are Jon Scroggs (my little brother), Johnny Becker, Kevin Uncapher, and Michael Lyda. I hold them personally responsible for making me jump up into the rafters!

Thanks to everybody that came out. You brought the energy, we just utilized it in our music!
