Want to help out a great cause?

Come to the Pickens County Cancer Associations’s “Pig Pickin” tomorrow, Saturday, April 14th!

Three great bands will be playing there… Up first is The Bottom Line Band, then at 1:30, The Dockside Band, and finally, at 3:30, $2 Pistol. TDB will be performing originals, and a lot of our country material, unless otherwise requested once we get there.

It’s all you can eat wings, a beer garden and live music. Some of the area’s best BBQ cookers will be there, such as our friends over at Nard’s.

The location is the Easley Town Center Square area, around the clock belltower. Bring your sunscreen, an appetite, and a wallet with some folding money to help out the PCCA!

After this event, we will load up and head over to Rendezvous on Pelham Road in Greenville, SC for a gig where we’ll play all your favorites, from country to rock, to beach, to originals, and help get the party started!

TDB put together another new song during tonight’s rehearsal… Country / Rock Party Goodness!

Derrick Dorsey came by my office a few weeks ago and had jotted down lyrics to what would be his first song. After listening to him recite them, we put together a basic riff, recorded it on his cell phone, and at the first chance, played it for the rest of the band.

Tonight, we finally had time at the studio to make what is sure to be the final arrangement of the tune. Chris Carroll changed the groove significantly, breaks were added with the input of Tom Wheat, along with the sax fills, and Mark Harmon went to work with me to try and lock in the rhythm section.

It’s not quite ready for prime time, but if you come to one of the gigs this weekend and ask us to perform “Get ‘er Done”, I bet we would give in and do it live, in spite of the penalty for failure.  This is sure to be a hit!

Actually, the name is “‘Til the Cows Come Home” I believe…
