I dunno about you, but I had a bunch of fun today. Heather stays at my place most weekends for all of our shows, but doesn’t always get to bring her fiancé Chance with her, but this weekend, he was able to stay, too! Today, Christine and I took them to Austin before we headed to our Cedar Park gig. We all did some shopping, had some BBQ together, then Christine headed home, so Chance, Heather and I met up for some post-bbq sushi. Then, we had a great show where, once again, Heather and I laughed our way through the whole night. As an added bonus, a fellow piano player, David Lee, came out to see the show with his wife! What a great end to the weekend. 

Heather and I are always trying new things! Tonight, I did some keytar tunes while also playing the piano, which was fun. Heather pulled out some tunes for the first time, and the people loved them. Thank you, Heather, for always keeping a positive energy going! 

Heather, Pancho and I used the brand new mixer at Moonshine & Ale tonight for the first time, and it made all the singers sound like pros. We had more people than we thought we would, too! The fair is happening this weekend, so sometimes it makes for a lighter crowd, but not tonight! We had a great time, and Heather and I will be back for piano bar tomorrow night! 

I played a half hour of original music tonight on Facebook on the Giving Gigs page. It felt great to do a set of tunes I’ve written. I so rarely get the chance to do DanHolmesGroup tunes. I’m glad for this outlet to a new fan base! 

What an awesome ending to a long and amazing weekend! Heather and I drove more than 1,000 miles in the past two days for shows, and when we arrived in New Braunfels (with our drummer buddy Chris Wallis), we were ready to play. The requests came in at fast pace. We swapped between piano and keytar while Chris kept his super-groovy beats going, and the place never stopped giving back the energy we were throwing out. I am so happy with all the shows Heather and I did this weekend, and I’m also glad we are finally out of the car.
