After a great, albeit hot, night at gusto's, we packed up the wagons and headed to Maine, stopping off along the way to catch a 200+year old church that got struck by lightning (the benefits of the day job!) and then hit the stage Saturday night for a packed house at Rick's Cafe. We had the pleasure of hanging out with German Dave and a few other rabble rousers who were out enjoying themselves this past weekend, and got the chance to have some fun on Long Lake with some fantastic weather! We had a blast and hope that you did as well.

This coming weekend, we're returning to Manchester to the Derryfield for our first time there. Please come out and join us in kicking off our new favorite place in Manch to play! We want the dance floor packed, and everyone having a great time, so come have some fun on the deck in the afternoon, and then crank it up and dance the night away! Saturday has us returning for the Mont Vernon Fire Department dance. We did this one a couple of years ago, and had a blast. The weather should be kind, and the fun should be huge! Bring some snacks, go online and get your tix in advance, and we'll see you in beautiful Mont Vernon!

This week's awards go to:

The long distance award goes to the 2 Germans we met at 2 consecutive gigs - I want pix of the LKP shirt by the Berlin wall!

The pushy award goes to the Saturday night discount duo - we sell shirts to have fun and don't price them to make money - don't ask for a 35% discount unless you want me to treat you like I did. If you don't like my telling you what I think of you, don't buy the shirt. When we buy it for 12 and sell it for 15, why would I sell it to you for 10? 'Nuff said.

The sweet FOTK (friend of the kid) award goes to the cookie man - it's ok that you're a Yankees fan. The chocolate chip cookies were amazing!

And the narcolepsy award goes to all that had late nights, and slept in on Sunday.
