A crazy couple of weeks make me feel like I'm saying I'm sorry more often than I should. Busy times mean Friday morning quarterbacking the news of the week instead of getting it out earlier. I am sorry. Updates on the website schedule have been taken care of, so you have us through the end of the year. Winter is coming fast, so the ski areas are booked for the most part, and we'll be going crazy as soon as the snow flies!

Well, I mentioned last installment that we had some big news. The search for the newest kid has found ourselves with a familiar face to some and a new face to others. As Eric leaves our ranks, and will be sorely missed and always welcomed back to yuk it up with us, we now welcome the new bassist/vocalist to LKP, Mr. Mike Sherman. Mike is the bassist from Jason's former band Zenflower, and was a logical choice when we started looking. A bass player that sings, HMMM, I wonder what Mikey's up to? Well it just so happens that he was available and interested. We hope you all get a chance to meet him as we transition to the new lineup after Halloween. Eric's last gig will be Halloween night at the Rusty Nail in Stowe, so bring your cakes, scotch, and best costume to the Nail for the festivities. We look forward to the transition, and say thanks to E for a number of great years, and all the best for his future, musical or otherwise! We'll be sure to have as much fun as possible in the next few weeks to make sure that Eric heads out with a bang.

The other major exciting news for the winter is our return to the Wobbly Barn at Killington. It's been a few years since we've played there, and we always had a blast. With a number of changes at the Barn, we're looking forward to the chance to take the stage there again, and have some fun! we'll be there on Saturday, December 20, and again in February on the 7th. Unfortunately, the days of 2 nights at the mountain are over, but this means there will be a ton of great entertainment up there, and we can look forward to a couple of great Saturdays. mark it down on your schedule, and come up and play with us!

Along with the Wobbly, we have booked several dates at our favorite haunts, the Rusty Nail at Stowe, and the Matterhorn Ski Bar at Sunday River. This means a ton of ski weekends on the books for us, and we hope you can plan your powder trips accordingly! Starting with New years, and rocking through to the middle of April, we'll be having a blast, and checking our snow tires.

this weekend has us at the end of the season at one location, and gearing up at another. we'll be rocking the house tonight at the Anchorage in Sunapee as the harbor winds down after another great season. Thanks to Glenn and Karlie for another fun summer, and we'll see you next spring to kick it off all over again.
