<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<LATEST NEWS>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
WE SURVIVED FREAKERS BALL!!!
Thanks to those of you that came out to show your support at Freakers Ball on Halloween, we really appreciate it. It was a good night over all and a lot of fun for sure. It's always nice playing shows with local bands. I would like to go out more often and support some of these local acts but it seems like I'm always playing somewhere, and if I'm not, sometimes it's nice to just take a day off, stay at home and enjoy it. So when shows like this come along where we can play with a lot of the local acts I cherish the moment. It's nice to be able to network with, and get to know the other bands and just generally see who all is out there locally.
There were some great costumes this year in the $1000.00 costume contest! I did surprisingly well! The people who knew who I was dressed as seemed very excited! I didn't win anything, but I was in the top 5 over all, which was plenty good enough for me! I will be posting some pics on my myspace page soon http://www.myspace.com/12509263
SUPER-BUSY WEEK AHEAD!!!
Wednesday I will be playing with Hell or High Water at the Solo Club and shortly after we are done playing T.J. McFarland http://www.myspace.com/tmcfarland and a couple members of The Effects http://www.myspace.com/theeffects will be stopping by the Solo to pick me up and we are headed straight to Council Bluffs, Iowa to play a big show and do a radio interview at Whiskey Roadhouse http://www.whiskeyroadhouse.com/ where Leon Russell will also be playing the very next night! We are going to be leaving early the next day but I'm hoping I'll get to meet him again and show him pics from Halloween! Wish me luck! Friday night Hell or High Water will be back at the Tallgrass Saloon in Pawhuska,
Oklahoma(yes, we WILL be there this time, I called to confirm it) at 9pm. Then Saturday I'm off to Ponca City, Oklahoma to play another show with T.J. McFarland and friends at the Rocking Horse and then it's right back here in B'ville to play at church early Sunday morning! So don't bother calling me on Monday or Tuesday....needless to say, I will be sleeping!!!
<<<<<<<<<<<<<NOT SO NEW NEWS>>>>>>>>>>>>>
I am dressing up for Halloween this year!!!
I am going to be the great Leon Russell as seen on this video in 1970!
I have been doing a lot of research on Leon lately and have found myself completely hooked on his music, and completely impressed by his accomplishments. Oh, how I would love to play drums for him someday!!! I was fortunate enough to meet Leon at one of his birthday bashes in Tulsa a couple of years ago but it was only a short hello and a hand shake. However, I am playing in Council Bluffs, Iowa next week and Leon is playing the very same place on the very same stage the next night!! I know a few of his band members pretty well and I am hoping to get to hang out with them a little before we have to head out. I am planning to take some pictures of me in my Halloween duds to show him if I am lucky enough to get to meet and chat with him again. I'll keep you posted on how that turns out. In the meantime if you're interested here's a little info about
Leon... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leon_russell
FYI: I hope he doesn't mind me telling this but, John Galley who plays keyboards here in Bartlesville with all the locals was Leon's organ player back in the 70's, he played on some of Leon's biggest hits, one being Tightrope and John has played for some other big names as well. It's always a privilege to play with John, he is a great guy and great player!
