Mid Life Crisis

Our Friends & Fans are always requesting songs and we always want to keep adding dance songs.  We take your recommendations seriously, but sometimes the music doesn’t get people on the floor or the song doesn’t suit us.  Here’s a listing of what we play or in some cases have played in the recent past.  Some songs are in semi-retirement but all have been performed or are in our rotation.  Keep looking for new ones and keep recommending songs you think might work for us.

Your Mamma Don’t Dance - Loggins & Messina

And I thought it was going to be a slower night . . .  It’s unusual to see empty tables when we play the Elks, thought the snowbirds took a big bite out of the crowd.  So wrong, by the third song we had folks coming in and the dance floor was full.  As Bob said, we love to see the line dancers from our corner of the floor. 

Met some fellow Texans and we thank you for the words of encouragement.  You liked the new song, “Pride & Joy”, Steve did a great job on the lead.  We look forward to our return, see you in June.
