A big pond has come between us (any London gigs...?)

Ronn, have you guys ever looked into booking a few UK shows? I wonder how you'd go over there? I know it's not the same thing, but there's an outfit calling themselves "The Australian Pink Floyd" that tours the U.S. (and other places, I'd imagine). They must do OK to come all the way here to play.

Hope it was a good one Ronn.  Could not make it as we've been working late at the P.O.

Do you ever make it to Houston?  HOB is booking some top shelf, please forgive me - absolutely no insult intended, - cover acts.  I bet your outfit would fare very well there.  Regardless, if you do get a Houston date booked please post it and I'll be there.

I know they've appeared in Houston before, I remember seeing it on their calendar.

We do Houston, usually a private or corporate gig, not clubs really.
The few nightspots we do here in Austin are just a way to advertise the band, and the gigs allow folks looking for a band for their private/corporate(Big-$$) events to see our show. 

It was a great show as always, the people at the Austin Convention Center are pros. I usually have a problem with parking in the loading dock area but the attendant was a big fan and she let me park there no problem, gave her a poster signed by the whole band for being so nice.
