Got another gig this week-end, along with our monthly Eagles gig Fiday night.

Sat. afternoon will be playing steel for the Easy Country Band at the Eagles in Kingman, Az. for the annual Laughlin Harley River run.

Never worked with this band before, never heard them, this should be fun! lol..

I'm gonna bring this back up because I have a decent double-header gig(s) coming up today. Not typical for me.

In New Haven, CT in the afternoon 3:00-4:00 we (Thunderegg) are playing at Kehler-Liddell Art Gallery. We did our first time out show there about 9 months ago as a CD promotion. They let us use the Art Gallery then, and this is sort of a thankyou for an "Artwalk" day they are sponsoring.

Then at 9:00pm we are playing at Toad's Place in New Haven opening for Leon Russell. This is kind of a big deal for us to be playing at Toad's Place, and to be opening for someone like Leon Russell is a real honor.

I haven't had a pickin’ job in over 6-yrs. and finally got a week-end OFF! What a relief it is to be able to just relax and watch the world pass me by!

I'm not crazy, I just think I am¡
