KMC Sunday!

I am on the flight to Memphis, and so far so good! Everything's on time, and I'm hoping for an early arrival in New Orleans.

I'm also hoping that parking in the area won't be too too difficult. Fingers are crossed!

I am so looking forward to this day. And tomorrow, too. Having a break in the long road trip should be energizing.

To date we played 5 dates, 4 radio shows, and have been on the road 8 days. The next leg starts up in Milwaukee with Trombone Shorty.

Then the hard part starts: 8 in a row, sort of, and a lot of driving.

We're also doing the John Schaefer show on WNYC next Monday. That'll be a long day, as we're driving into Manhattan from Quakertown, PA, about 3 hrs.

I don't know yet if there will be any other promotional appearances scheduled, but you never know. With AlliPurse, all stops are out: we're going full throttle after the Grammy win. That's the way you do it, in this industry.

Descending towards Memphis now.

The Kate, Old Saybrook, CT, 2/11/18

We played the Kate on a very wet Sunday night. It was our third appearance there and as always, the audience was great and so were the staff.   We played a fairly well-rounded set list, mainly to listeners, as there isn’t much room at the Kate to dance.  It was a good show, and afterwards we sold and signed CDs.  It’s always great to see our fans. I hope it’s not 4 more years until we play there again!

Rhodes on the Pawtuxet Mardi Gras show, Cranston, RI, 2/10/18

We’ve played the Rhodes on the Pawtuxet Mardi Gras show many times. It’s put on by Church Wentworth, who also produces the Ninigret Park Labor Day Festival. It was the 26th year of the Mardi Gras show, and the place was rocking! We played a rousing dance set, and we were followed by Nathan and the Zydeco Cha Chas, old friends and great musicians.  

The Turning Point, Piermont, NY, 2/9/18

We played the Turning Point on Friday, 2/9.  If you’re not familiar with the place, it’s downstairs from a restaurant, housed in a rather small bar.  John McAvoy, the owner, is quite a character, and he always treats us great.  The place holds 78 max, and I believe there were 85 there! Some day I’d like to see what Piermont looks like in the daylight! We’ve never been able do that.   The audience was very receptive, no dancing allowed (no room), and we played a pretty good ‘sit down set.’ We look forward to our next appearance there!
