Hattiesburg MS, Auburn AL, and Memphis TN & Wes on The Ellen Degeneres Show

2.19.09 Young Ave. Deli: Memphis, TN

MEMPHIS TENNESEE!!!! Turns out we got to play with our good buds The Elmwood Band. Really good new and upcoming band from Nashville, TN. Thanks to their sax man Derek Haight for getting up there and jamming a few with us. One thing we've noticed is that Young Ave. is the only place we've played that serve 16 oz Schlitz tall boys. Our old friend Chad Eoff drank a few of those and ended up coming up on stage for a tamborine encore...nice work Chad. Also we ran into one of our good friends Kate Bradley. She is an incredible up and coming artist in Memphis and you must check her stuff out!!!. Today we're off to Fayetteville, Arkansas to do a show at George's Majestic Lounge w/ Mofro. We'll let you know how it goes.

2.13.09 Side Street Bar: Hattiesburg, MS

2.14.09 Sky Bar: Auburn, AL

Happy Valentines Day! Today is the day we're putting up our music for free and finally we're back home for the first time in a few months so it's cool to get to play for some of our good buds and local fans. Sky Bar ended up being excellent as always. We got to sleep in our own beds and throw a killer afterparty at our place. Cheers to everyone that came out and made the night special...and extra cheers to the folks that partied with us till the sun came up haha. Hope to be back in AU soon.



Randomly, we got asked to roll Toomer's Corner with the owners of the venue. It was just the band and 2 other guys. Looks like we did a pretty good job.



So last week was the first time we played in Hattiesburg, MS. Its a pretty cool little town. Thanks to the group of folks that came out and knew our songs. You guys are awesome and made the night for us. One good thing about the venue was we did get free PBR and at the end of the night we snagged a few free pizzas from Dominos...thanks Richard. Here's a pic of Wes' signature hotel bed flip after a few of those PBR's at the hotel. Hope to see you guys back in Hattiesburg soon.



WES ON THE ELLEN DEGENERES SHOW

We forgot to post this earlier but a few weeks ago our bass/keys player Wesley Flowers jammed some sweet daytime T.V. Right after we got done playing Tipitinas in New Orleans he had to fly out to L.A. to play keys for Butch Walker and Pink. He almost missed his cab and had to sell his body to get out L.A. Pretty crazy stuff. All you lady Ellen fans eat your heart out. Check out Wes on youtube.
