Saw you guys three times while we were in Florida for a month. Loved your spirit. Wrote a note to Willie Nelson suggesting he try to hear your song "assholes don't sing love songs" as I think it would be a great song for him to record and it would make you all rich. Anyways..you're lots of fun and we enjoyed every moment of all three shows. Thanks. Penny Newman

March 19, 2008

My parents introduced me to your music at Bert's Bar a couple winters ago; I love watching you guys play! Any time they go to see you play they call me during "We ain't leaving til we're heaving - puking in the parking lot!" I have scheduled my vacation for this April and made sure to be in town on a Wednesday so I can come see you play :). I want to check out the Block Party in Punta Gorda, too!

Did you know there is a Cajun restaurant in Charlotte called the Cajun Yard Dog and their logo is the same as your aligator? Any connection?

All the best to you!

Steve Crouse

March 15, 2008

Saw your band a couple years ago while visiting friends in Naples. You were GREAT! ou were out of the area when we down this past January and disapointment set in. Hoping to see you again someday - when are you playing Ohio? I would drive to Put-in-Bay if you are going to be there. I would prefer to see you here in Toledo instead - do you have open dates near your Put-in-Bay shows? Have you ever herd of Polka Floyd from Toledo? I think you'd like them. (Check out their MySpace Page) Have you ever considered doing a CD of cover songs? I love your original tunes -but I also think you do a great job when you are covering songs live. Your "House of Rising Sun" makes my Top 10 list of Cover songs. I'm Rambling - Come to Toledo next time you are in the area. Steve at The Glass City Cafe.

Dennis & Ramona Kaiser

February 24, 2008

We are planning a trip to FL from WI in early May and we saw you have a Key West trip planned. Could you please send us additional information about it. We saw you perform at State Fair Park in WI in August 2007 and are interested seeing you again.

Thanks for letting me play the washboard again with you guys at the Parrot Key. I think the audience liked my new can opener dance. I did get a bruise on my arm and leg from doing that dance with the washboard. Probably not a good idea for future washboard playing. Back in cold Wisconsin. See you guys next October. Working on new moves for next year.
