It almost took a team of sled dogs but we trekked to our gig at The Metal Grill and successfully rocked the house for a surprisingly large audience on a night better suited for the Trans-Siberian Orchestra. As the picture shows, The Metal Grill is one of the Milwaukee area's best venues for live rock with a large stage & hall, good acoustics and a nice sound/light/video system so the bands can be seen & heard throughout the bar. The engineer was great to work with and we hope to make a return visit sometime when the climate is a bit milder.....like North Dakota's! Thanks go to the management for their hospitality and kudos to the two up & coming bands that also braved the cold, brought their fans and nailed their sets with us, The Unknown and The Family.
New CD Update: The master of our second CD of original rock, Collision Course, has been sent to Disc Makers and our first supply should be delivered by mid-February. We're also designing special t-shirts to commemorate the release, ordering a third batch of our first CD, HWY 13, and bringing back the ever-popular HWY 13 beer koozies. So if you can't get enough of us, we've got you covered and we'll let you know when we nail down the date & venue for our CD release party.
Last on the docket is the 22nd annual Thoughts for Food fundraiser for the Racine County Food Bank on Saturday, March 1 in downtown Racine. The full lineup hasn't been announced yet, but we'll be playing our favorite venue & time slot, 9:15 to 10:45 pm downstairs at the Eagles Club. This is always a great time for an important cause so we'll be applying some "gentle pressure" on our fans to attend this gig and remember......we know where most of you live!
Thanks again for tuning in to the blog and keep rockin'!
