Well, Well, Well...

Well, well, well…

I told you we were going to have a good time in Gun Barrel City! We sure as hell did!
We went to a pre show party at Donnie Nelson’s (of the Dallas Mavericks) lake house. He had a bunch of folks over to celebrate us coming to town and playing our first show in Texas after the ACM award win. We had a great time. They’ve got a new drink they’re getting to market called VIB. It’s a gooder.

Then we went to Gator’s. What a show! It felt just like playing a packed bar by a lake in Texas in the dawn of summer!!! A whole lot of fun. Before the show Donnie Nelson presented me with a Dallas Maverick jersey! It’s #15, Brad Davis’s retired # and my favorite #. Very cool! Then the mayor of Gun Barrel City (yes, they have one!) presented me with the key to the city! I’ve never been presented with a key to a city. I’ve had a few keys taken away from me but that’s another story. I asked the cops and the mayor if the key would work at the city jail!!! They declined comment.

The show was a ton of fun. The band was tight. The crowd was loose.

Can’t wait to do it again.

Keep on keeping on…
