Country Boy...

I must confess something. Prior to leaving Canada, I lived in small towns. I mean, really small towns...3 or 5 thousand people tops. The kind of towns that had 4-H clubs, summer rodeos, an abundant supply of pickup trucks, farms, ranches, and of course, country music. I consider myself a city girl now, but those country roots are there. I used to know how to line dance and the words to some Garth Brooks songs. I know, terrible secret, isn't it?

Well, this past weekend, Will and I had happy occasion to listen to some country music and support a good friend. Will's childhood friend, Dave, called us to let us know he was living in Nashville and touring the US with a country band! Things with the current band seem to be going really well and they even played here on Friday. As alternative rock as Dave is, he looked like he was having a great time playing on stage; what a great job to be able to rock out on stage and get paid for it! After their set, we had a few drinks and chatting with Dave and the band who are mostly from Edmonton.

As you can imagine, taking pictures is a dark bar is really a matter of chance, not skill. The first pic is Dave and Will. The second is the band with Dave at keyboards. If you're a closet country fan yourself or just interested in the band, you can visit their site at www.adamgregory.com
