Back From A Week On The Road
Wednesday, April 30th, 2008Yes, I made a road trip and it was great, music, friends and about 12,000 crazy beach music fans. It started with our third Friday of the month, “shag night” at Oasis Oyter Bar and I want to say thank you to everyone who came out, and a special thank you to Mike and Annett Seals for your continued support, it was a great time!! We do this every third Friday of the month and folks, this is your place to shag in Clinton. We need continued support for this monthly event to secure, “our” place to shag and enjoy great beach music. The next night I was back at Oasis for Hobton’s 1998 Class Reunion, celebrating 10 years and the crowd was great. It was packed and everybody had a great time, want to say thank you to Brandon Kimbro, I’m ready to do it again in five years. Then off to Oak Island to the St. James Plantaion for their Sunday Night Social. WOW was this a party, everything to the best in beach to the best of the 70’s. These folks know how to party!! Leaving straight from Oak Island we headed to the Shag Capital of the world, North Myrtle Beach to join in on Spring SOS. I enjoyed seeing so many people whoI haven’t seen in a while and playing my favorite shag club ever, the legendary Fat Harold’s. I played the back room (Family Room) Monday night and Wed. night with a wall to wall crowd. Thank you as always to everyone who came out including some of my people, Phil, Bonnie Bill, Becky and everybody in the Causeway Shag Club, Jeff and Janet and all my friends. Allow me to back up and talk about Tues. at HOTO’s with King Tyrone and the Graveyard Ramblers. NOW THIS WAS A SHOW….of course with the new CD coming out during SOS and Mama’s Drinking Liquor Again being one of the Hottest songs out in a long time, King Tyrone was in rare form. I tip my hat to the King and all the band, this was one of the best shows I’ve seen in a long time. I picked up the CD and loved it, I have been playing it ever since I got it. Before I left the Beach I spent Thursday at the Spanish Gallion with Chad Sain Hosting the KHP Pre Release Party. Chad you the Man Brother!! This was a great event with so many artist that performed andthe crowd in attendance. Now it was time for me to head to the Pre Party for the 10th Annual Triangle Beach Music Festival. It kicked off around6pm with yours truly and the Revlers at the Cleveland Draft House. We went until 2am and tried to get a little rest before the big day on Saturday. Here we go…..12000 people, great weather and the best beach music in the world. WOW it was great. This is the biggest party of the year and Saturday was no exception. I tip my hat to T&R Baxstage Production for a job Well Done. Then we went back to the Cleveland Draft House for the Famous Post Party. Non other than The Little Man of Beach Music and Jim Quick and Coastline back together again!!! We closed it up in style and enjoyed every minute of it. Jim and the Band put on an unbelievable show and the crowd loved it. We close it down and at this point my voice was gone!!! What a week we had, looking forward to doing it again next year.
