D. Coy's and Suds were rocking!
Haven't had a chance to check in for a few weeks, but wanted to let everyone know how fantastic our two latest gigs were! We played Suds Sports Grill in Ellenton (Nov. 7) and D. Coy Ducks on Holmes Beach (Nov. 13) for the first time and both lived up to expectations. Suds has a great outdoor deck just perfect for both the band and the patrons. It was a nice cool night for us - the first snap of fall weather - and we have to thank all the friends of the band who came out and partied with us. I see Suds as sort of a hidden gem, and if they can begin to create a regular crowd for their live music on Saturdays, it could be one heck of a fun place to play. Here's hoping that happens for them and we get another opportunity to bring the rock in the future.
D. Coy's was out of this world! A few of my veteran bandmates had played there before in a previous life, but it was my first go-round and I had an absolute blast! The crowd was BIG, LOUD and INTO IT all night long. When you have energy like that in the place, it only makes the band work harder, and I think we were at our very best. Everyone played and sang their hearts out for four hours. Can't wait to get back there on January 9 - or before - and do it all over again! It was also the first time we've had the opportunity to roll out ALL of the material we've practiced over the months for a full show. Well, we did have three or four tunes we didn't get to, but we jammed through 40+ tunes and everything was tight. If you had a chance to get out to either show, many thanks to you for your support. You make it all worthwhile! DG Leave Comment: |
