A great week, Opened for Wayne the Train last night at a bar in Armington IL. This Friday, same bar, opening for the Derailers. I have never seen them live and i cant wait. If you are close to Central, IL, there are still tickets, you will get to see them in a small venue, a little less than 100 people. The place looks like a road house from the 50's.

Here is a link to the facebook page if you are in the area.

That's AWESOME! You are livin' the DREAM! :mrgreen: Most self-respecting Tele-whackers would be happy just to see either of those shows. Getting paid to open up and actually be a part of them is totally COOL! :cool: Seriously, opening up for traveling acts like that is probably better than living on the road and being the traveling act. See if you can record some of it and post it to Youtube. You only live once, might as well have proof! :wink:

Very true. We have been very lucky over the past 4.5 years. We have opened for:
The Bastard Sons of Johnny Cash
Dale Watson
JD Beverly
.357 String Band
Those Poor bastards

It has been way more than I ever thought it would be. I already plan on having Kodak zi8 all charged up to capture the moment.
If anyone comes out to the show from TDPRI, please stop by and say hi. I will be the guy with the blue pin striped tele.
