So, our first Save Second Base show of the summer is in the books. This turned out to be one hell of a good show and an equally good time. We had lots of our up north friends and family come out as well as a few hardcore friends from the cities drive all the way up (Elvis never leaves this building!).

Playing cover tunes can be a lot of fun when you get it done right and it was fun since there was a fair amount of new stuff that we pulled out this time around. Even played a handful of tunes that night that we've never played, ever, and they didn't even suck! That's saying something, not sure what, but something. There was also a very good response to the Deadwoods original tunes we threw in there, so we're starting to feel pretty good about this whole Deadwoods thing.

Anywho, thanks to everybody who came out and pitched in. The event raised somewhere in the neighborhood of $2,000 which is more than what was expected and comes very close to closing the deal for my wife, her sister and the other 3-day walkers involved. Not that that will stop us, we're still on the hook for the show in Princeton on August 15th. Keep that date open, you don't want to miss this!

Also, we posted a few photos from the show up on the Deadwoods Facebook Fan page. Go check em out. Someday I'll figure out a better way to display pictures right here on our site, but for now we'll take advantage of Facebook.
