NEVER A DULL MOMENT….

SO IT'S MONDAY NIGHT……. THE PHONE RINGS. BUDDY GUY NEEDS ME TO PLAY DRUMS FOR HIM AT A SOLD OUT CONCERT TOMORROW NIGHT IN GREEN BAY WISCONSIN.

HE'S IN THE MIDDLE OF A TOUR AND HIS DRUMMER HAS TAKEN ILL. HE NEEDS ME. WHEN BUDDY CALLS YOU GO. I CANCEL A RECORDING SESSION AND GET ON A PLANE.

BUDDY SAY'S FROM THE STAGE IN GREEN BAY. "WHEN I HEARD TOM HAMBRIDGE WAS COMING I WENT BACK TO BED WITHOUT A WORRY". WELL AFTER GREEN BAY WE ROLLED ON AND PLAYED THE ROTHCHILD PAVILION IN ROTHCHILD WISCONSIN. LAST NIGHT WE PLAYED CLEAR LAKE IOWA AT THE HISTORIC SURF BALLROOM WHICH IS THE CLUB WHERE BUDDY HOLLY, RCHIE VALENS AND THE BIG BOPPER PLAYED THIER LAST SHOW. THEY BOARDED A PLANE THAT NIGHT AND CRASHED INTO A CORN FIELD. IT'S REFERRED TO AS "THE DAY THE MUSIC DIED" . OK TODAY WE ARE IN MINNESOTA AT THE STATE THEATRE. THIS IS FUN…..BUDDY GUY IS GREAT…..HIS BAND AND CREW ROCK….CHARLIE DRIVES THE BUS AND HE ROCKS TOO!!!!  WORKING ON A NEW RECORD…..TALK SOON
