Our spotlight will be on Doug Shicks family this week. Doug is one of worlds greatest crew persons a band could ask for. You will see Doug running spotlight for us. He and Dave Kastrup are responsible for how we sound and look. They show up first and unload the truck and set up the stage at every gig. We couldn't do this without them. THANKS GUYS!
First of all a Happy Birthday to Debbie, Doug's wife. She celebrated her birthday at Bar Seventy-One on December 5th. They had cake and we played one of her favorite songs "Locomotive Breath".
Next a BIG THANK YOU goes to Dave Soete, Doug's son-in-law. He is the artist that designed our Caricature.
With the most recent changes in BlueStone Ivory it was necessary for Dave to make a few updates. He added Mark on bass and shaved Gary's mustache to match his brand new hairless upper lip look.
This is really a fun photo. We have a blast using as often as we can. As a matter of fact, everyone attending the New Years Eve Event at the Marriott Hotel this year will be receiving our 2010 magnet calendar with this photo attached. You will be able to display it on your refrigerator and mark all the BSI gigs on your handy calendar.
