SummerFest!!!!!!

They say close only counts in horseshoes and hand grenades, but we'll take close any day...especially if it's playing close to the lake at SummerFest!  That's right, this Friday June 30 at 1 pm the Renegade Rockers Tour with Doctor Snake Oil and Hardcase rocks the Renegade Stage at SummerFest on behalf of the Hawg City Chapter's Guardians of the Children Day.  We've gigged twice already with these two great rock bands from Milwaukee and you'll definitely want to come early and stay for the whole show.  Details are in the link below, and special thanks to Drew Webb of Doctor Snake Oil for organizing the event and inviting us to play.

The Renegade Stage Presents Guardians of the Children Day

Speaking of close...at last Saturday's Dirty Hoe Saloon gig we nearly lost Dino's services to a volley of airborne horseshoes thrown his way when he wandered too close to the horseshoe pits and his legs were mistaken for stakes.  Below is the last picture taken before we found him lying unconscious with two ringers on his left leg and a leaner on the right.  I was asked how to handle the situation, so I decided the points shouldn't count and they had to re-throw.  He's fine now, but his doctors advised him to avoid areas with sand or horses for a while.

Thanks again for tuning in to the blog, hope to see you at SummerFest Friday and keep rockin'!

      

June Tour!

Long time...no read!  Sorry for the lack of updates, but our jobs have been getting in the way of scheduling gigs and practices with mandatory overtime consuming our nights and weekends.  I suppose I could've re-posted the new fence post behind Joey's just to let you know we're still alive, but I wouldn't insult your intelligence with such a cheap laugh....twice!

Our schedule has been light, but it isn't like we haven't kept active as a band since December.  We got together for a Packer game, played a great set at McAuliffe's with Lyden Moon and Diamond, and rocked Thoughts for Food downstairs at the Eagles Club again this year.  After all that lack of musical exercise and a major food-themed event and after-party, Dino still isn't obese.

We'll be making-up for lost time with three dates billed as the Renegade Rockers Tour June 10 (George's in Racine), June 24 (Dirty Hoe Saloon in Kansasville) and June 30 on the Renegade Stage at SummerFest!  We'll be touring with our good friend Drew Webb's band, Doctor Snake Oil, and Hardcase, two hard rockers out of Milwaukee.  Details are in the Next Gigs section at the upper-left of this page, so hope to see you there.

The new posts should be more frequent now that our schedule is ramping-up again, so thanks again for tuning in to the blog, keep checking for updates and keep rockin'!
