saturday morning we opened up the riverwalk festival in milford del. killer ! i mean killer sound system! giant outdoor stage. the sound company was out of philly. the (FOH)sound guy chris ,was another friend of hank edwards, my friend that passed away july 31.about 5 different acts went on that day and it all ended with fireworks sponsered by comcast. we picked up 4 gigs from this one gig. one of the best gigs i've ever done. that afternoon , we did a bull roast with two other bands. the most people i've ever seen in a dayz worth of gigs. i played my ass off that day! woo--------- am i ever burnt out! but it was worth it! TURN THE PAGE
It's great to play on a big sound system and especially if the soundman is good. Congrats on the gigs getting lined up. You know you did well when you get gigs out of a gig.
KEEP ROCKIN'

we all did well and played our asses off is what i should have said. but you know how guitar players our. this is a new band for me and we've only played out a few times. looks like steady work is coming. the cool thing is, our focus is having fun.
Cool bluesman, it sure is a wonderfull feeling after some great gigs. Had 2 awesome gigs myself this past weekend and I was on fire on Saturday at my blues-gig, my best playing ever.
Mike, Are you going to Hanks benifit this sunday?Robbie's flying in from Texas and Joey's going to be in town.Did you know that Joey's doing the Chubby Checker gig?I turned on Emeril from the Food network the other day and saw Joey on there with Chubby.There will be alot of killer players there.TD you should go too.
I hope to go - at least for a while. But I don't think I'd be able to get on stage with guys like you, Joey, Robbie, Tommy Alderson!! You guys would cut my head off!!

man! joey's been doing that chubby checker gig for the last couple of years.the food network? lol hehehe. chubby/ food network. chub must be getting hungry. i guess the money must be good. the benifit. i got mixed emotions about that so i probably wont go. Chris was doing sound at my last gig and i gave him a CD i did (in memory of hank) maybe he'll have it with him so you might be able to check out the bluesmann..chris did invite me up to jam but i think i'll pass on this one.
