Friday morning quarterback again! Last weekend was a private party, so I skipped my weekly duties and didn’t do a newsletter. We’re back, and better than ever, or whatever that line is… schedule updates should be on the website in the next day or so, and include dates through December, so get ready for a great 2011, and we’ll see where things go! Lots of fun parties, summer events and weddings, so we’ll be all over the map with some new rooms, some old faves, and some wild events, so keep your eyes and ears open!

First of all, thanks to Jan for a fantastic birthday party! We always have to reduce the size of the PA when we do a party in a living room, but this one ROCKED! Thanks to all who came, and we hope you had as much fun as we did! Let’s do it again next year! This weekend has us in Barre tonight, and off tomorrow. April always seems like a transition month between ski and summer, so we tend to do fewer gigs this time of year and recharge the batteries. Maybe we should plan some events for April and early October to fill in the lull. Put that on the back burner and let it simmer. Next weekend is a double shot in one day! Friday is off, unless someone books us last minute, and then Saturday we’re playing from 1 to 3 at Buzzard’s ride in Hooksett at the American Legion. Ride leaves at 11, and gets back around 1:30. For more info on the ride, etc. go to www.buzzardsridenh.org. we’ll be there playing our set from 1 to 3, and then pack up and head over to Whippersnappers to set up for the night. We hope that the bikes just head down and have some fun with us in the evening once the ride is over. Come one come all and support a great cause.

As summer comes, we’ll be hitting a number of nights during bike week, adding a stop in Rangeley, ME for you folks up north, and getting our hands back in at the Brimmer in Manchester, so keep your heads up for some great events this summer! Hope all is well and check out the awards!

The holy &^%( award goes to college band bassist Jon Bon Roberts for showing up at the last show of the season at the Matterhorn. Wow. Where did you come from!? We hope you had fun, and I think we actually play one or two songs from that far back, and we’ll get you up next time!

The gravity award goes to the Jager girls for tearing up the stage, and almost causing a riot! Too much fun, and almost too much to clean up!

The bouncer award goes to Patrice for hopping the rail and taking control!

The best setup for a house party goes to Jan for clearing the living room and letting the house ROCK!

And the narcolepsy award goes to Jan as well for taking a nap when needed!
