Different Strokes for Different Folks

DWB hit the stage this past weekend in Maryville, Tn. at an awesome venue known to locals as "The Shed". From it's name you might be led tothink that it's a hole in the wall club/ bar with a dirt floor and an old Peavey PA system. "the Shed" is anything but that. It's probably one of my favorite venues to play. It's a covered outdoor venue with top notch production! Mark and the crew do an amazing job. It's a difficult feat to overpower the roar of 15 Harley Motorcycles reving their engines but they do it well! It was kinda, well really, rainy all day on Saturday but we had a faithful crew of DWB fans and new faces that made the journey to Maryville. Some fans driving in from as far as Atlanta! (much love 2 them). Thanks to them, I learned a new dance called "the stanky leg" which I did attempt later in the evening! This was also an interesting gig cuz it was 1 of only 2 gigs in our 6+ years that bassist Robby Mathis couldn't make it! But Tyler "Big Noise" Boldin stepped in and learned the ENTIRE DWB repetior in 1 week, well at least 16 songs:) Big Noise did an amazing job! We were also joined by long time friend and saxaphonist Jason Thompson, whom if known since the Gran Torino days. Jason stepped in and played like he'd played the songs his whole life! Look for more appearences from Jason in the near future. Out friends from Jescoe warmed everyone up with a blend of raw Southern Rock that held everyones attention. DWB hit the stage around 9. The stage shrouded in fog, the applause roared, the 1st notes of "we bout 2 do dis thang" hit with a funky fury and to quote the lady to the right as she threw her hands up "I can't listen to this sh$*, Im outta here!" Oh well, different strokes for different folks, I guess:)
