Varsity Lanes / B’Ners / Castaway Jam
A return to the Varsity Lanes and Kami’s Bday. We had a pretty good crowd and thanks to all who stopped out. Kami’s Bday was March 4th and her gang was all there. She behaved a little better than her 21st – thank goodness. Bob used his electric set for the 1st time. We all thought it was cute and sounded good. It almost looks like one of those toy sets but it’s very high-tech. I believe he got a good deal because the previous owner couldn’t figure it out! Jason wasn’t feeling well so we didn’t play a few of our new songs. Cyndi, Matt, and I did a few more of ours and we got through it. It takes a lot of the enjoyment out when you can’t perform up to your standards. I’ve been there many times and the rest of the band has covered for me. It happens. Cary and I played Friday at B’Ners in Footville for Billy Barns’ 50th Bday. We had a good crowd and a good time. We’re playing again at Boxcar’s on Saint Patty’s day, March 17th (Wednesday). Sunday was the Castaway Jam and another good time. Thanks to Cyndi, Bryan and family, Matt, Stacy, Kami, and John for stopping out. Cyndi sang a few and sounded great. Matt was there a little later and tore it up on the guitar. I sometimes think people forget that Matt can hold his own on guitar, along with being a solid bass player. I really enjoyed playing guitars together with him. We had a few more jammers this time, which added some variety. I’d also like to thank Bobster and Lisa for being regulars. They were at the Varsity and Castaways. Next week has us back at the Owl’s Club – 1st time this year I believe. On a personal note, my red Prism, which I’ve had over 10 years is now not worth fixing so Holly and I are looking. The car has a lot of memories – I taught Corey to drive in that car. Things do come to an end and we move on. Whatcha gonna do…Stop out to the Owl’s next weekend. See you there!
