- Sept. 27th, Saturday, Artz Rib House, 7:30 - 9:30pm. Mike Maddux will join us on piano and accordian. We would love to see you at either or both. But there is a lot going on, and we hope you have great weekend. Thanks, Jerry
- Sept. 26th., Friday, Green Mesquite Bar-B-Que on Barton Springs Road, 7 - 9:30pm. Bill Terry will join us on pedal steel, Terry Kirkendall on drums, and Jason Arnold on bass. If you are on you way to ACL fest, you will likely be walking by the Green Mesquite where you can have a sit down supper and a drink, and not be scalped in the process.
- Sept 7th, Sunday, Jovita's, 6 - 7:30PM. We will be celebrating my 64 birthday and doing a live recording. Michael Christian will join us on drums, Bill Terry on pedal steel, and Greg Lowry on accordion. Most of the tunes will be Traditional Country dance hall numbers that we haven't recorded before. We are also trying to get good live recordings on some of our originals. And those two crowd pleasers that are hard to categorize, "Woman Down in Memphis" and "Thunder Road". So join us if you can. We would love to see you there, dining, dancing, drinking and smiling. It will certainly make our work a pleasure. Thanks, Jerry
- August 15th, Friday, Artz Rib House, 7:30-9:30pm. This week we will have an extra special treat for you. We will be joined around break time by Dan and Christy Foster (no strangers to any of you involved in the Austin Traditional Music scene), who will regale you with their renditions of several songs by John Clay, of the Lost Austin Band. The songs on John's 2 LPs were from the 60's into the 80's. I asked for help describing his music from a group of local old timers and got this from Harry Edwards, "John is the poet of a lost Austin, an Austin that we lost and an Austin that lost itself." Stop by and judge for youself. Dan and Christy will come on around 8:15 with their guitars, mandolin, banjo and great vocals. We'll finish the night with some good ole Honky Tonk and Texas Swing. Hope to see you there, Jerry
- July 25th, Friday, Green Mesquite Bar-B-Que on Barton Springs Road, 7 - 9:30pm
- July 18th, Friday, Artz Rib House, 7 - 9pm
- July 6th, Sunday, Jovita's, 6-8PM
This will be the first of several live recording sessions in which we hope to put together at "Live at Jovita's" CD. Michael Christian will join us again on drums, and Bill Terry on pedal steel. The set list will have all of your favorite dance music: shuffles, two steppers, Texas Swing and a couple of waltzes, with the occasional wild card thrown in (can't leave out Thunder Road). And it will all sound better if you are there enjoying your July 4th weekend, drinking, dancing, or just relaxing. Thanks, Jerry P.S. They have a new Chef and different menu. We tried it last Sunday and thought it was really good. And the A.C. is fixed. - June 20th, Friday, Artz Rib House, 7 - 9pm
