Travis AtwoodWe would like to send a very special thanks to Travis Atwood of Carmen The Cactus for filling in for Jenny Z this last Friday at the M&J. We all had a grand time. I don’t think the fun ended until after 3:30am. That’s what I call a good night.

For our first trip to the M&J, we had a pretty good week. We met some new friends and had a good time in the process. I hope to see many of you in the future. We got to see a few of the area’s musicians as well. Terri Mackner from Silverado got up and sang a few songs, as did Kyle from Just The Guys. We even had a visit from Kimber Wolfe. It has been a long time since I have jammed with Kimber. Good time!

If you get a chance to see the Carmen boys, be sure to do so, it is a great show. They all are a lot of fun.

We are back from a couple week jaunt to Superior, WI and Mahnomen, MN. I must admit that it is good to be back in my own apartment. I went a week without internet while in Mahnomen because my computer is on the fritz. Seems like a lifetime.

Anyway, we are back and will be at the M&J in West Fargo, ND this coming Thursday through Saturday. Hope to see y’all there.
