Why All The Water

Look at how cute these waitresses are from Cowboyz!!! They wear chaps, cowgirl hats, cute little country girl snap button shirts and daisey dukes.



Happy Father's Day!!!
April and Ed came to the show last night, too. And tonight April told me what an amazing Dad Ed is, and she wanted me to dedicate a song to him. Since I didn't have any songs that lyrically made sense... I dedicated "When You Say Nothing At All" cause my own Daddy loves it when I sing that song. And it was a good chance for all the ladies to take their men out on the dance floor :)


What is with us and the rain lately?? It started raining on us while we were eating outside on the boardwalk... and we had to grab our food and run inside. And tonight onstage was a bit like Chinese Water Torture... water kept dripping on me. I don't understand where the leak was from, but no matter where I went on stage, the water followed. It wouldn't be that big of a deal if I wasn't worried about it dripping ON my fiddle. If it got on the bow, there would be no more sound. :( And that would make me sad. Tim kept trying to strategically place himself so that the water drip between his arm and the bass... I don't think it ever worked though. :)

Hope everyone is have an awesome Father's day!!! I'll leave you with some more photos... we drive 16 hours back home tomorrow...






Peace. Love. Fiddle.

COWBOYZ

We're currently all hanging out in the band house after the show - it's 4:15 am... The night has been filled with a great show and LOTS AND LOTS of hilarity. We're currently waiting on the sheets to dry so we can put them on our beds and go to sleep!!! It has been one loooong night, day, and night all over again.

We had to drive through almost all of last night and most of the day today.

Last night (this morning...) I actually had to pay full price at a hotel for us to sleep a total of 3 hours. Wooo hoooo!!!

Cowboyz is great. It is this awesome club right across from the beach in Ocean City, Maryland. They are open for dinner and then party the night away. :)

I have to say thank you to CAT Country 97.5 and 105.9 for having me on the show today. They gave away Kenny Chesney tickets during my interview to help promote MY show. (Thanks, Kenny... I appreciate it) ; )

Johnny, the owner and DJ of Cowboyz modeled my shirt all night long. I love it!



James' mother and step-dad came down from New York today to see the show!!! The band, Tamara, and I went to eat at Denny's after the show.... and this Denny's DEFINITELY used to be an indoor pool. The meal consisted of lots of laughing, I was crying at one point I was laughing so hard. I love those nights.


Stanley and Donna!!! They read about the show in the paper (I talked to a lot of people who came out from reading about the show... YAY!), and stayed the whole night. Stanley is a huge fan of the fiddle, and knew quite a bit about Columbia, Tennessee. He knew Sterling Marlin grew up there and was impressed that my Mamma cleaned his teeth before :) I dedicated a fiddle song in the first set and we opened the second set with Tn Waltz just for him :) I've never done that before at a show, but it was really awesome!



Other awesome folks from the night!






We do it all over again tomorrow!

Peace. Love. Fiddle.
