Bio and Band Stories:

Week-long gig in Vernal with Odessa - made the rest of the year go by so quickly.

Hearing our hilarious Odessa guitar player Mark Hoffman respond to someone who requested Bee Gees - "their vocals are out of our hearing range."

On the way to a New Year's Eve gig in Denver in a snowstorm - Kurt Bestor with his coat collar up over his ears and windows down, driving over Wolf Creek Pass because his car mate/bass player hadn't had a shower in days...

Car problems on the way to Burley, Idaho gig with Taxi, stranded on the side of the road.....five guys standing around the band van with the hood up, puzzled looks.....then an old farmer came out to help. "Boys.......you're out of gas!"
