A few new pics

Hey, if you missed the car show this past Sat, you missed a great time! A parking lot full of gorgeous antique cars and trucks, delicious BBQ, and great music! What could be better? 

For this gig Shadz added a horn section! On the left is John Powell on sax, then Dave Shommer on trumpet, and Jeff Reiter on trumpet. These guys are awesome! You can click on the picture for a bigger view. Of course the drummer and keyboard player are hidden in the back - as usual!

My hubby, Richard, on the keys:

Rick on guitar and lead vocals:

Drew on lead guitar:

This is the horn "section" with John, Dave, and Jeff.

And the guy who had the booth next to us got really excited when they played, "When the Saints Go Marching In." Of course he did have a huge "WHO DAT" sign in front of his booth! lol

Sorry. Poets gig was cancelled due to renovations.

New pics!

These are pics from Shadz' last gig. They were playing for a Senior Adult Dance. It was a blast! They were a fun group to play for.



Ok. Here's some serious show prep!

This was too funny. They kept getting requests. Over and over and over. All the requests were for a waltz. Um, these guys aren't exactly the waltz band type, ya know?

So during a break they figured out that one song they play, Gravity by John Mayer is actually a waltz beat. They started playing it and about a minute into it, the dancers figured out it was a waltz. (Apparently none of them had ever heard John Mayer. I did mention it was a SENIOR citizen dance, didn't I?)

After much discussion among the band members, the consensus was that they could possibly pull off playing the Tennessee Waltz but they didn't know the words. We looked up the words on the internet with a cell phone and wrote them down on a piece of scrap paper. Not only did they pull it off, the dancers loved it! Thank goodness for technology!
