Rockin J Piano Bar 10/28/22

Heather and I had a bunch of fun together in Cedar Park tonight! She is such a gifted person that it’s humbling I get to work with her. The crowd loved our show, and it was great to look up to see people getting excited while watching us perform. I feel so lucky. 

Moonshine & Ale 10/28/22

Sarah Angel joined us at Live Band Karaoke tonight in New Braunfels. She played piano while Poncho played guitar, Heather played bass, and I was on drums. We had a huge amount of requests tonight and lots of good singers! It was nice to meet Sarah!

Moonshine & Ale 10/22/22

Heather and I played in New Braunfels tonight for the first time with Doc Vickers on drums! He did great, and I’m happy we have some more dates on the calendar with him. The crowd was very different than the usual crowd tonight because there was a street festival during the evening. They got into our show and had some great requests!

Sean Patrick’s Irish Pub 10/21/22

We played in San Marcos tonight! Heather and I took requests, and had some very interesting stuff brought up to the piano. “Miami 2017” and “Partyman” were a couple, and one guy printed out alternate lyrics to “Margaritaville” for Heather to sing. That’s a first! We had a good time, and our buddy Chris Wallis sat in for a few tunes, which was a treat. 

Moonshine & Ale 10/20/22

Heather and I returned from vacation to play at Live Band Karaoke tonight with the great Pancho Garza on guitar! I was there pretty much all day helping install new gear in the club, and everything sounded great. I’m looking forward to using the new gear again this Saturday night! 

Private Party 10/08/22

We headed to Leander, TX, to help celebrate Darrell‘s birthday! It was a house party with lots of guests, a room with poker tables, a build-your-own fajita bar, and a big TV with football playing in the front room. Our show took place outside on there beautiful patio. The weather was perfect for a show outside, and we had a great time performing and helping everyone celebrate! happy birthday, Darrell!

Moonshine & Ale 10/7/22

For three and a half hours, we played everyone’s requests in New Braunfels tonight. There was a wine event going on at all of the stores downtown when we arrived, and we had a good start with a crowd all ready to sing. We played everything from “Highway To Hell” to “Shallow” (where I snuggled up with Heather while singing my part). It was a fun show, and I think everyone had a great time! 

Moot Music Cafe 10/7/22

We got spooky and silly on our Facebook livestream today. We cross-posted for the first time today on Moot’s page as well as our AllRequestPiano page, and had fans and friends join in on both! We played a bunch of Halloween stuff because… October, obviously. I love playing with Heather. She keeps me happy and laughing! 

Moonshine & Ale 10/6/22

Tonight’s Live Band Karaoke in New Braunfels started off slow, which was too bad because we had a former Elvis impersonator start the night off! The crowd filled in as the evening progressed. Pancho had a new pedalboard which sounded great! Heather and I will be back tomorrow night for piano bar!

Moonshine & Ale 10/01/22

I love my job! Heather and I are a perfect match, and she makes every show fantastic. We had the pleasure of being joined on stage by drummer Andrae Blissett tonight. He rocks, and is so much fun to work with. We had several fans in the crowd tonight, including our friend Megan who drove in from Victoria to see us, and took a bunch of these awesome pictures! It was a fun night, for sure. 

Sean Patrick’s Irish Pub 9/30/22

Heather and I brought the electric drum kit out tonight for our show in San Marcos, and it worked out great! We played from 7p-10p for locals and fans from several other cities including New Braunfels, Boerne, and Seguin. I like have folks show up from other cities just to see us. It’s humbling. 

Moonshine & Ale 9/29/22

We started off slow, but the crowd came in for Live Band Karaoke tonight in New Braunfels, TX. It’s always interesting to talk to the crowd after the show. I get so many compliments about the band and how good we sound, and then they’ll tell me how good of a drummer they think I am. It’s funny to me because I never thought of myself as a drummer, and I never expected to play drums ever on a stage, yet here I am! I always love hearing the compliments. 

Rockin J Piano Bar 9/24/22

Dancing, dancing, and more dancing happened tonight during our show in Cedar Park! Heather and I just kept the fun rolling all night for everyone who came to request songs and let their hair down. We even had a fan who lucked into seeing us three times in different cities! She first saw us in Bandera, TX, then she showed up in Victoria, TX, and again tonight in Cedar Park! What makes our show so special is how much Heather and I love each other and playing together. You just can’t fake good chemistry, and people really recognize that, from Bandera to Victoria to Cedar Park! 

Moonshine & Ale 9/23/22

Tonight started with about five tables at 8:30p, which made me nervous, but by 9:30p, we had a full room and a ridiculous amount of requests! Heather and I swapped instruments all night, so we both helped fun bachelorette parties and birthdays celebrate. I even was asked to play “Freebird” for a divorce party, so I did. 

The Woodlands Resort 9/22/22

Greystar had us return for our second event for them, this time in The Woodlands, TX. They are a great group, and Heather and I agreed on how fun the show was! We performed 2.5 hours of requests, and the crowd danced and sang with us the whole show. They fed us before the show some delicious sliders, and stuck around after the show for photos. During our last few songs a bunch of giant balloons used as part of the decorations were batted around the ballroom, and you can see one in one of the pictures! Such a fun night, and I hope they have us back in the future for another event! 

Moonshine & Ale 9/17/22

I can’t believe how many bachelorettes, bachelors, and birthdays we helped people celebrate tonight in New Braunfels, TX! It was non-stop from the moment we took the stage. Heather is a certified rock star, and I cherish every show we play together! She was on fire tonight while we swapped back and forth all night. Ed joined us at 10pm on drums which made it easier for me to pick up the keytar a few times throughout the night. I am so thankful that I get to not only perform music for a living, but also to be able to do it with one of my best friends! 

Rockin J Piano Bar 9/16/22

Heather and I played in Cedar Park tonight. It was a fun, and busy show! It’s not often that the crowd asks us for things like a mash-up of  “Party In The USA” and “Ring Of Fire”, but we got that one tonight. “I Can Dream About You”, “Fight The Good Fight”, “Hungry Eyes” and more requests like those kept us on our toes. We’ll be in New Braunfels for our Saturday night show and take another round of requests! 

Moonshine & Ale 9/15/22

Live Band Karaoke started off slow again tonight at 8:30pm, but packed out by 10pm. Pancho sounded great on guitar, and Heather kept everyone who wanted to sing rotating on and off the stage while keeping perfect time on the drums. I was on keys tonight, and had a bunch of fun performing with those two. I liked that we had several songs performed that not many people have done in the past. That always makes the night more enjoyable to me to get a chance to play something a little different! 

San Antonio Marriott Rivercenter 9/13/22

What did you do on a Tuesday? Heather and I spent our Tuesday night in San Antonio, representing NY/NY Dueling Pianos at a convention, where we played once again for the fun folks at Merichem Company! We played four hours of non-stop requests, and made each other laugh all night long. This was our second time performing for this same group, and we absolutely loved the energy in the room. They’ve said they’d like us back next year, and we’d be happy to do it! 

Lion Sam Farrow Amphitheater 9/10/22

Temple, TX, welcomed us back for the end of their concert series tonight! It was perfect weather for this, and we loved performing for the crowd. We played as the sun went down, and the phones came out to light the night during their favorite songs! Lots of kids danced throughout our 2-hour show. People were raving about our show to us afterwards, which always feels good. Pretty much a perfect night, except for the unusual amount of mosquitoes!
