We decided that to celebrate the release of Roadhouse Rhythm, we need to get together with our favorite friends and players, and throw it on down. Mike was able to coerce Terry Townson, Delbert's trumpet player, and the guy responsible for the tremendous horn charts on the CD to fly in from Vancouver for the gig, and he and our new buddy, Tony Gairo on tenor sax provided a punch we're just not used to having live! Thanks to everyone who participated, both on and off stage - Karl Frick, Denise Nejame, Ron Burns, Bill Sharrow, Dawn Dengler, Billy Wear (we'll miss ya, Billy!), Shawn Appleby....I'm sure I'm forgetting people.....forgive me!
A special thanks to Rick Statkus of Signal Sound for doing the live sound, and for Karl Frick (yes, THAT Karl Frick!) from Lakestone Studios for the live recording of the gig!
Thanks also to Dennis Flanagan and Mike's lovely wife Michelle for the photos below!
