Finally ....We got to have a good show at the Ridglea!!  .... I was starting to think it would never happen ;)
For those of you who weren't there at the the Ridglea Metal Fest on October 1st, we played at 4:30  in the afternoon to about 14 mall rats,  and Chad was way late, and Donny got called to stay late at work so he didnt make it at all. ( no pressure, Dave ). Everyone said it went great but it felt off to me.......
But, three weeks later it was different story, we actually showed up, on time, with merch and everything !! Thanks to everyone who bought a shirt, I think we are sold out now....it took two years to get them....  they lasted 3 days.  ( More should be on the way )
HedKase went on about 9:00 PM,  and as usual they fucking crushed !! Big props go to Billy, Cody and Blake. They always put on a great show and have always supported us .....anytime we see HedKase on the bill with us,  we are happy !!
So after D-Money leads us in the Lords (Metal) prayer by the stage, we strap on, and crack off into the Reckoning.......
We actually were going to play some new material... called  "the War rages on", but time ran short and we thought "Chrome Knuckles" would be a better call.
I saw Haleigh& Donna, Amanda from RockStar, Terry, Karlee, Farah, Matt, Boone, Jeff Millenium, JNova, and all of 8th Circuit was down front
the monitor mix was perfect...big thanks to Roy and Mike for their hard work. Thanks also to Wesley,  Richard, Suzie and the rest of the Ridglea staff!
That is when I had to haul ass to get to Billy Bobs to catch the last 45 minutes of Robert Earl Keen. Then back to Ridglea for 8th Circuit. Then I headed for Flynns Irish Pub, where I met up with Donovan for a Guiness
**True Story Section**
I woke up at 5 AM in front of the Pub in the Land Rover, with Pegleg Mike, passed out listening to Robert Johnson......( I couldnt make this shit up folks )
fuck you stuffed fox,
