Week of 4/11 - 4/12
I don't recall it ever happening before. Maybe it has. Bright and early on Saturday morning we all showed up in Luling ready to play the One Team One Flight Crawfish Boil. But… as it turns out we were never booked for the event. Somewhere somehow lines got crossed and confused and we were not on the schedule at all. I don't remember if that's ever happened before. My first thought was maybe we were supposed to be somewhere else. Maybe we're at the wrong gig. I do recall… once we showed up for a wedding in one of the downtown hotels and there was another band set up. After some discussion and checking the contracts it was determined that they were set up and ready to play but… they were in the wrong room. Oh no!!! They had to tear down, pack up and move all the way to the other side of the hotel… quickly. Now that's a nightmare. I do recall what band it was but will not through them under the bus. So we ended up with the day off. And then returned to work on a beautiful Sunday afternoon playing T Rivers in Madisonville. It wasn't packed. We were competing with the Strawberry Festival right down the road a bit. But a very nice splendid time indeed. We will be at Rock'n' Bowl on Friday and in Chalmette next Saturday 4/18 for the Tomato Festival. Looking forward to seeing you there.
