We plan to catch up on some needed rest and spend some time with our families.

In December, we have shows in Lancaster, Waynesboro, Gettysburg, Etters, and York.

Despite the heavy schedule in October (or March through October), front-man Mike somehow kept the shows all high-energy for us. And the crowds' continued enthusiasm sure helped keep us pumped up! Mike & Chuck blew Dan away with some serious improvising. And you should have seen Emily's flying feet - amazing young step dancer! Marilyn joined us for several gigs and sang brilliantly. Did you know her favorite song to sing is Sweet Thing that she learned for a wedding?

Some unusual things happened these past 30-days at gigs which you may or may not have seen. One musician got lost briefly en route to a wedding gig. An unnamed fiddler broke a string and had to speed home to get a spare. An unnamed bodhran player's tipper bounced across the stage in the middle of a fast tune. And at the last gig, one unnamed musician did some crowd surfing, but the crowd had moved - ouch!

Once again we must thank everyone who comes to our shows which allows us to continue having fun sharing our music...
