The Debut Of The Holler!

5/31/14
Red
Rome, GA

After four months of rehearsal, we finally got to play in front of people.  Josh, Adam, and I played for a few weeks at the start, knowing we were going to need another person.  Manning came in and made it his.  We all kicked around ideas, made suggestions on arrangements, leaving any ego at home.  I wasn't sure I wanted to be in a band, but these guys convinced me otherwise.  I damn sure want to be in this band.  We booked this gig first, then another one the first weekend of May.  That one got cancelled because of the Block Party.  More time to prep, I say.  The amazing Thunderbolt Patterson signed on to open the show.  They should be headlining the Ryman and places like that.
