The Beltonian Theatre 12/21/24

Heather and I performed our year-end show in Belton, TX, tonight, and it was great! Our 2nd of two shows had people dancing and singing with us though random rock and pop requests, with some Christmas classics thrown in for the holidays. Someone requested the dog version of “Jingle Bells” for all the pups at home, waiting to go pee. Heather really sounded amazing, and I’m so glad we had such a good weekend with all of our friends and fans at the Beltonian. Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to everyone!

I love our Beltonian shows. Heather and I always have such a good time performing there. We had a fun crowd, with requests as wide as Chuck Berry to Snoop Dogg, Dolly Parton to Fleetwood Mac, Heather got several standing ovations, one was for “Amish Paradise”. I got a couple myself, one for “Georgia”. It felt good to have a nice big crowd of people willing to play sleigh bells at a moment’s notice! 

Moonshine & Ale 12/19/24

Josh Holmes played guitar at Live Band Karaoke tonight in New Braunfels with me, Heather and Denise! Pancho needed a sub for tonight, so I called my nephew to see if he could fill in. It was his first night doing anything like this type of show, and he did great. Heather and I also enjoyed having some time to talk and hang out with him before and after our show. Denise helped him out by filling in any licks needed on the keys. It was a fun show all around, and a pretty busy night. Thanks to everyone who sang with us! 

Moonshine & Ale 12/14/24

Great ending to a great weekend happened tonight in New Braunfels, TX, at our home away from home, Moonshine & Ale. We played here Thursday, then Oklahoma City on Friday, and back in New Braunfels tonight, so we put about a thousand miles on my truck, and didn’t get much sleep. The crowd was in a great mood and we had a ton of requests, so Heather and I leaned into that energy and really supported each other all night as we always do. Heather got to try on a paper mask of a groom’s face as we entertained a bachelorette party. Later, we had Jerrett Wenzel come in at 10pm to play drums, and he’s always fun to work with. Now I’m home, and I might not leave the couch for a couple days. Goodnight! 

Devon Energy Center 12/13/24

Heather and I picked up drummer Zack Carreon in San Marcos, TX, after our Thursday night show, and we drove to Hillsboro, TX, to sleep, then continued to Oklahoma City, OK, this afternoon to set up for a private event on the 50th floor in a ballroom. We had a great time, and the three of us played a 2.5 hour show for about 150 people. We finished up and loaded out in a light rain, and headed back to Hillsboro to get some sleep. Tomorrow, Heather and I will be back at Moonshine & Ale in New Braunfels, TX! 

Moonshine & Ale 12/12/24

Live Band Karaoke in New Braunfels started off slow tonight, but we filled up by 10p with a bunch of singers. There were several groups wanting to sing together instead of just individuals. Some of our regulars tried several new songs which was fun to try some new songs with them. Heather and Pancho sounded great, as always. Now, Heather and I are halfway to OKC for a private event Friday night, but we’ll be back in New Braunfels for piano bar Saturday! 

Old Kress Live 12/7/24

We played our second of two nights at Old Kress Live in Corpus Christi tonight. Heather and I had some fun requests from diverse artists like ABBA, Tears For Fears, and Stevie Wonder. We had a birthday to celebrate, and everyone had fun. DJ Zack took the stage after we finished and kept the crowd dancing while we loaded out. Heather and I had a great conversation on our 3-hour drive home, and I’m so glad we get to tour around together. Next week, we play in New Braunfels, Oklahoma City, and then back in New Braunfels. It’ll be another whirlwind weekend! 

Old Kress Live 12/6/24

We had some fun people and some unexpected requests at our show in Corpus Christi tonight. Lots of dancers and people asking for songs like “Highwaymen” made the evening go by pretty fast. We’ll return for more tomorrow night at Old Kress Live. 

Moonshine & Ale 12/5/24

I played bass for the first half of Live Band Karaoke tonight in New Braunfels, while Heather held down the drums. During break, we swapped instruments for the rest of our singers. Pancho joined us on guitar, and Denise was on piano. It was Wassailfest tonight, so the streets were closed off and they were packed with people strolling around for the various offerings outside. Our show was packed all night, and we had fun running though all the songs the crowd was singing with us. Oh, and tonight was Damon Curtis’ first time on stage, just like every other time. 

Moonshine & Ale 11/30/24

Our Saturday night show went well in New Braunfels. The beginning of the night was dominated by football, but eventually one team lost and one team won. Part of the crowd was happy, part sad over whichever outcome affected them. I just played music through it all. Music brings people together even when sports are running division through folks. Heather sounded amazing, and she makes every show fun. Ryan Hall was on drums tonight at 10p, and he did great with keeping up with all the various tunes we threw at him. Go team!
