Near Bedford, Indiana, 15,000 of the coolest bikers in the country converged on 300 acres (of which the ABATE crew own) for a weekend of insanity. We played with Duke for about an hour-and-a-half to a semi-clothed crowd. The Boogie is always a good time! Check the pics:
Two of the original members from the band "Foghat" formed a new group called "Slow Ride", and they performed right after us on the main stage at the Boogie. It's a good feeling to come off of a set and have a member of Foghat tell you, "You rock". Not that I need the reassurance, but it's like having Emeril tell you he likes your spaghetti.
Oh, and the drummer and I talked about fans. Not the kind you get from years of touring, mind you, but the ones you can buy for $40 at Wal-mart. He liked mine a bunch, and said he was going to have to buy himself one. I just like the image of the drummer from Foghat wandering around a Wal-mart at 3am looking for a new Stanley...
