On To The TBull 10/14 and 10/15
Back to the Twisted Bull, friendly confines and armed with some new materials and fully rested. Friday night went without a hitch, the new songs sounded great. All in all it was a great start to the weekend. Nice to see familiar faces...Helen Wu (still crippled). But Pam, on the other hand is hobbled no more...now she can earn her keep again. Saturday night started out on a high note, big crowd expected! Brandy is here and is ready to party! (We love it when she gets loose!!). Shaky Sean is looking great in his Cookie Monster shirt that his 2 year old granddaughter picked out for him, what a great grandpa he is to wear it. DJ is sporting his ball cap backwards ready to ROCK! Jammin Joe was smoking as the night starts and kept the fire going until the last song was finished. Rockin Rusty is well... Rockin Rusty, keeping the baseline straight on (at least this time he kept his hat straight). It was nice to see "Stalker Couple" Greg and Darcy, Jammin Joe's bro Scott and gal pal, DJ's sister Laura and Brian, and Jamie and Dan (who were anxiously awaiting last call so Jamie could go home and tend to the "DISHES"). All the great line dance crew, Debbie Hurley (DJ's lost cousin) among others. Lot's of crowd interaction as the night progressed, the guest singers were steller and the men won the singing contest, although the band had a hand in that one. Brandy was whoopin it up on and off stage...she had a great time. Jammin Joe narrowly missed being sliced in 2 by Shaky Sean's falling symbol, thankfully no damage. Thanks to Pam, Wu and the TBull staff for help getting the gear back into the trailer...we sure appreciate it. Now it's a week off while the recordings are on. See you in a few weeks!
Finally band practice 10/08/11
Stolen Horses Band finally gets a chance to rehearse some new materials! On the agenda is a new song from Dierks Bently..."Does Anybody Want To Have Fun Tonight?", Justin Moores's soon to be a hit "Bait A Hook", Kieth Urban's "Some Days You Gotta Dance" and tweaking Jason Aldean's previous hit "She's Country". It's amazing that the boys in this band can work on their own and bring it to practice and put it all together so fast!! As we run down songs, Rockin Rusty can always add color to songs by changing the words! (Usually blue in nature) It looks like we may have to start bringing a pair of heels to our shows as props for the Dierk's song...something about lifting her heels over her head? Shaky Sean says the Miller Lite tastes great...it helps him slow down She's Country. Jammin Joe phenomenal job adding his signature pickin to "Bait A Hook", Rockin Rusty says we should change the name to "She Can Cook"...(Rusty's always thinking about food". DJ's vocals on "Bait A Hook and Does Anybody Wanna Have Fun Tonight" came together nicely. WE DO need some practice if we start "Dierks song with the rendition of "Sweet Emotion"...just sayin. Great practice, looking forward to putting them in the set list. Brandy and Pam added the frosting on the cake...great dinner spaghetti with lemon bars and apple carmel pie. Everything is back in the trailer and ready to go, see you at the show!
