Hello to all our friends,

Thank you all for coming out to our gig Friday night (February 24, 2006) at the Alpharetta One Star Ranch BBQ restaurant & bar (www.onestarranch.com). It was a pleasure to see all of you and we appreciate your support and coming out for my birthday/gig party. I wish we could have spent more time at the gig socializing with you, but we did have to work, and I was scrambling during the breaks to put charts together — we will certainly be more prepared next time and will actually be able to take a break during our breaks!

Very special thanks go out to Frankie Moates for letting us fill in for him and his band. Frank and I go "way back" and ran into each other at One Star while Jen and I were there on one of our date nights. Frank has taught me and continues to teach me about the blues, and I thank him for that, also. I look forward to playing with Frank again on Friday, March 24, 2006 at One Star and to Frank sitting in with us from time to time. As Frank would say, "It's all about people".

Thanks also go out to One Star Ranch for letting us play and having my birthday thing there. There are so many great people working at that restaurant/bar, and we had a great time. We look forward to seeing y'all again soon.

Special thanks go to the awesome players with us at the gig – Ricky Callahan (guitar), Lee Goodness (drums) and Keith Otterbeck (bass). We look forward to playing with them some more soon.

Jen and I are so happy to be performing again together. It is all of you who help to make it possible.

So until next time,

Cheers,
Shack
