Back we go to Moulton (July 2006)

with the new york trip over, i didn't have much to do except hang out and recover. joe and jim came over under the cover of practice but mostly we just sat around and i told them about my trip. ric had left for a 10 day tour of spain with Mundi and we were just goin over a few things...i knew there would be an open spot that sunday at the ole moulton bank if we wanted to go and play a couple of sets.
pamela's family was visiting from michigan, and we thought it might be fun to take them to real life texas beer joint.
sunday finally rolled around and i wound up driving the van since pam was driving her mother, and uncle and her cousin evan in her moms car...her other cousin luke was riding with me and joe stack and our friend, hawkster and, roadie dave.
we timed the start pretty well it was a really nice day and being the 2nd day of a holiday weekend there were some folks hangin out and drinkin a few beers. jim and harvana had a grill fired up so there were fajitas too.
we started about 5:30 and played a while then stopped a while...then played some more.
it was different playing without a drummer, but it worked out alright. we were just breakin our stuff down when smokey wilson comes drivin up.
smokey is another singer songwriter from down in guerro texas. he had made the drive to catch our last set...and had only missed by about 20 minutes.
anyway we went back inside and smokey had his guitar with him so we traded some tunes and i had another beer.... and smokey had a shot. we just hung out till joe noticed it was getting pretty late, so we packed it in and headed for austin.
well it looks like i've mostly caught up the last couple of weeks...and that's a bit like putting down a heavy bucket you've been carrying.
i'll try to be a little more disciplined in keeping this blog current. i think i'm goin down to san antonio this thursday and play with smokey.
so till next time. ya'll be safe, have fun
adios
