7 Days and Counting

It's Tuesday and we're 7 days out from the Armed Forces Tour of South Korea and Japan.
Our preparations are going ok so far but there's still work to do. We are still waiting for a few last minute items we ordered for the tour. Such as memory cards for the video cams and small stuff.

The Bluzapalooza folks sent us all beautiful military grade Tour Jackets with the Bluzapalooza Logo on back. We also got T-shirts and hats as well as these cool minted coins that say Bluzapalooza IV on them. We're going to be giving those out to all the service folks we meet on tour. It's a tradition among the military to give a custom coin to people who distinguish themselves in their duty or as a sign of high regard. Well we hold all the servicemen and women in VERY high regard so we got 500 coins to pass out. LOL! We got a lot a hands to shake.

On a new note, Laurie & I will be doing a radio interview with the online station flinttalkradio.com
The interview is at 1pm today but I think they edit and broadcast it later. I'll let you know when it airs. Check out their website. It's pretty interesting and lots of different subjects and shows on there. If you like Talk Radio you may get a kick out of it.

Quick note, Laurie & I will be at Brick St. on Friday Aug 28 from 6-10 and at Beale St. Smokehouse on Sat. Aug. 29 from 7-10 (BTW Congrats to Beale St. for taking 1st Place in the Chicken BBQ and 2nd in Ribs at the Genesee County Fair last Sat.)

Your last chance to see the FULL RWB will be this Sunday Aug. 30th at Brick St. on Grand Blanc Rd.
We are having a send off party there from 4-9pm Sunday Aug. 30th. The band will play on the patio desk (weather permitting) from 5-8. Come on out and have Dinner & Drinks. The place is awesome.
A donation box will be on site and donations to assist the band are appreciated but not mandatory. Just come on out and say "HEY".

Talk to ya,
Rusty
