Last Monday evening, me and few of the folks from our band played at Rhodes Ferry Park as part of the city’s “Concerts in the Park” series. Despite the sweltering humidity, there was a good crowd of several hundred people there. Several friends made it out along with plenty from church. We don’t play a simplified setup very often at the theater, so it was nice for me to be able to just have one drum to play and one mic to connect instead of my BIG kit. It was a fun time for all of us - Brent on bass, me on the djembe, Kevin with his acoustic guitar, Amber rockin’ vocals and Jack “Randy Rhodes” Spooner on his electric guitar. We wrapped up the evening having dinner with a small group at Maria Bonita. Good times.

Madison does concerts on the square every year during the summer, but I never end up making it to them. This reminds me I should go

What a pretty setting! From here, I can’t feel the humidity at all

Nice crowd.
You guys may have to move to the VBC concert hall before long

TC: You definitely should go! You’ll kick yourself for not going after they wrap up for the season.
Arlene: Lucky you.
Bone: We actually did a thing at the VBC a few years ago, but the crowd back then was - let’s just say “crowd” might be too strong a word.

Crowd, my butt. Nothing like a “church” band playing late at night after a hockey game for the “church” crowd that has to be home and in bed by 11:00.
But at least “we played at the VBC” is cool to say.
