Transitions


Transition has been the name of the game for the last few months as the Carnie Bums have been initiating Doc Treble into the band.  Songlists are growing, some songs are fading, others are rising; it's a pretty fun time.  We've been playing a bunch of shows lately, private parties, bars, ski resorts, and real rock clubs to get some chops.  With new members in a band, you gotta test it out and see how it drives.  This version drives pretty well.  We are pretty stoked.

We are in transition about venues to play as well.  We are looking to move into some of the ski towns and take advantage of the great love and support we get from the skiers.  In addition, our old staple, Capt. Jack's is no more.  It's now Blitz.  They've got a great new owner and the place is working it's way into being a successful sports bar in Westminster.  Not sure how/if we fit into the plans of the new atmosphere, but we played for the new owner last night and had a great time.  If it was a send off, then it was a good one.
