Could I play the slow blues that they wanted me to?  Yes I did.  I really had to rely on Gibby's keyboard and feet tapping to the beat.  Bryon Stevens was in for Dan Johnson and was on fire.
Kris handled the majority of the songs, he and his dad are playing in Alburnett this Saturday. They wanted me to play drums but I told them that I was obligated to play Dreams Of Arcadia in Wheatland on Saturday's street dance.  Then  Ryan then mentioned on Monday, that he forgot that Lisa Harbit was playing percussion with them.  Pretty much fouled up my plans.  So I lost the Alburnett gig.  And a few needed dollars.  I gotta get back to my regular job, bills are being paid but I'm digging into the retirement fund.   I opted not to take unemployment. After this week, I'm back at work for two weeks, then another week off.  That will be reserved for Madison.

It was a slow blues that Robbie sang to, and when I left he mentioned that the song was Emotional Rescue.  I did managed to do two songs with Ryan, including Next Time You See Me to which I did the final gunshot beat at the end of the song to conclude my performance and being at Parlor City for a while.  Ryan marveled at the Wild man behind the drums, I told him you should have seen me Saturday Night at the end of Summer of 69 when my cymbal stand went flying.  That got a wide eyed look from him
