There is nothing like the Derryfield in the summertime! Wow, what a ton of people out on the deck, inside, everywhere having a great time and going nuts. We had a ton of fun and were glad that the weather was great so the full expanse of the bar could be used. And then how do you top that? How about a wedding with some great dancing and a fun room to play in? It was a fantastic weekend that allowed us to get back into the swing after a week off, and enjoy every minute of it.

This weekend we kick things off on Friday with a return to Gusto's on Friday, and our kick off gig in Maine at Rick's cafe in Naples on Saturday. As always we're looking forward to the nuts at Gusto's to be out in full force! AND, Rick's has never disappointed and we'll be cranking it up with them on Saturday. All you Mainers, we're coming up to play, so get there and get ready to have fun!

this week's awards go to:

the backup singer award goes to Heather - congrats on your wedding, we had a blast!

the best light show award goes to mother nature for Sunday morning's drive home - holy crap there were some lightning strikes that lit up everything!

the happy birthday award goes to a ton of people but I'll single out Kim

the flamingo award goes to me - nothing like a pinched nerve to make me stand on one foot for almost a whole gig!

and the narcolepsy award goes to all who missed the storms, late night parties and driving and were blissfully sleeping!

With the pinched nerve getting better, I hope to be a little more mobile this weekend. As my doc said at my physical this Monday, you turn 40 and everything starts falling apart! Thanks for the vote of confidence, doc! I'll be looking forward to a few more years of falling apart - slowly!

Take care, have a great week, and we'll see you on the dance floor. more new tunes coming, so be prepared for some changes!
