We've just posted photos from Saturday's show at the
Vermont State Fair, which you can see at:

Although the wet weather left something to be desired,
we made some new friends, hung out with the guys
from Blackberry Smoke, saw a kick-ass performance
from ZZ Top and most importantly, rocked out in a
major way! Special thanks to Uncle Dave from hosting
station 94.5. Uncle Dave is one of the coolest DJs we've
met and hosts a morning show called Magic Bus. Check
them out at: http://www.945thedrive.com/uncle-dave.html
New Date - Time For A Road Trip
------------------------------------------------
On Friday, October 3, we'll be bringing our Skynyrd
Tribute show to Northern Lights in Clifton Park, NY.
Northern Lights is the largest club in the Albany, NY
area and hosts many national-level acts. We're
proud to play there and would love to see as many
familiar faces in the audience as possible. See:

Skynyrd Tribute Show
---------------------------------
We just mentioned our Skynyrd Tribute Show,
which is something you'll be seeing more of in
the near future. We put it together in response to
audience requests to "play more Skynyrd" and
designed it as a virtual double-bill: two sets of
all the old-school Skynyrd that you love but
rarely hear anymore (I Ain't The One, Needle In
The Spoon, etc.), along with a set (or two) of
some WRB originals. Vocalist Tom McLear's
voice and style has been likened to Ronnie
Van Zant, so combine that with the stage
presence and musicianship that the WRB is
known for, and you get a show that's well worth
the listen. We'll note the Skynyrd Tribute
shows in the schedule as such, to make them
easier to pick out.
It's been a rainy couple of weeks in New England,
so we're trying to stay dry and away from the
lightning. Have a great week, everyone!
