Well, I guess you guys can now have bragging rights about having a Steady
GIG.
Hell of a commute however, :))
The Boondockers sure do play some exotic places, and I thought I was good at
finding gigs. :)) Been booking shows and bands for forty years and never
booked a date in Logan, Ohio in my life, always thought Logan was in UTAH, and I
don't book no bands or play any place that don't sell booze or allow you to
drink it. That's always been Osmond country to me, and I'm a pretty Clean Cut
guy, but I ain't never been That Clean Cut. :)
Now they do have another unusual custom in Utah however that I could possibly
relate to, which is the ability to have several wives (at the same time that
is) now if they were all gainfully employed at decent salaries I could be a
fully retired musician and live quite comfortably that way provided they all
agreed to share my generous contributions to the institution. I believe they
might find me quite entertaining which is definitely my calling in life. :)
Cheers,
Rev. Tom - Bob Wiggins
