Well, the first weekend with Mark and Keith was a blast! We discovered that the latest new addition at Gusto’s is a new smoke detector setup that renders our haze machine off, since it sets off the alarms! Our apologies to the Barre fire department. We thank them for their prompt response and allowing us to get back to playing as soon as possible! What a way to start off the night. After that, the rest of the weekend forged on as the rest of the time at Gusto’s was a blast, and we rolled it into Saturday night at the Matterhorn! What a great crowd, great show and great energy! The staff and fans outdid themselves this weekend with a ton of fun and a great reason to do a repeat of the exact same gigs on march 4^th and 5^th! Get ready boys and girls, we’re gonna do it all again!

This weekend has us returning to the scene of the crime at the Rusty Nail in Stowe. The last time we were there, we broke the record for craziness on Saturday night. It was so much fun, everyone decided to do it all again this weekend. So, tonight and tomorrow will be another double shot at the Nail! Please let the snow run its course, and then come to the hottest place in Vermont! We’ll be doing more giveaways tonight and tomorrow, and hope that you all can make it out for another fantastic weekend. I’m sure that with vacation week and all the people that will be out to enjoy the snow, we’ll be having another record weekend to smile and talk about!

This week’s awards go to:

The unsung hero award goes to the folks of the Barre fire department. Thanks for TCB and being the best!

The hostess with the mostest award goes to Patrice for taking way too good care of us on Saturday night!

The “hey, that’s my job” award goes to Michelle

The almost mattress taco award goes to Mark

The “I’ve fallen and I can’t get up” award goes to Wheels McGillicuddy

And the narcolepsy award goes to Sunday. Man, we all needed it Sunday.

Welcome to the two new guys, tonight is their first night! Mark and Keith will hit the stage with LKP at 10 pm tonight to kick off the next version of LKP! Call it LKP Mach 12, for you Spinal Tap fans! We thank all that have gotten us here, especially Kyle and Eric for finishing off last week’s gigs with us. All the best to all the former LKP members, and hope that all is well with all y’all!

Last weekend was a blast at the Wobbly. Two great nights, and a bunch of fun with some fantastic crowds and good times had by all. We hope that we’ll be able to do some more weekends up there next winter, but that was it for us for this year! Bummer, man! We had such a blast with the staff there, and we’ll be looking for you next season.

This weekend is gusto’s and the Matterhorn, so get ready! We’ll be debuting a ton of new songs, and looking for new suggestions as we move forward. Let us know what you want to hear. Kings of Leon, Neon Trees, Taio Cruz, etc. are all on deck for tonight!
