One Of The Top 5 Dillon's Shows...

Friday the 13th

January, 2006
Dillon's
Paris, TX


Well, just like the headline says, this was one of the best times we've had, and also one of the best show's we've had here in our little hometown joint. Thanks to Miles From Nowhere for double-teaming the folks with us once again, and thanks to Kenny, Sam, Craig, and the rest of the usual suspects that make our gigs at Dillon's run like I Can't Believe It's Not Butter.

It was one of those rare nights when, as a player, you really felt connected to the crowd. It's real easy to get involved and have a good time when the folks are right in your face, pumping fists, and holler’n. That stuff’s the best. This night was one of those times where the band and the crowd just seemed to come together just right and there wasn’t a feeling of division in the room. No gap between the two, or what I always call, “negative space.” Everyone in the joint was part of the same well-oiled machine, bouncing to the same rhythm, and sucking up the fun, channeled right there in front of me, right out of the thin air.

Ladies and gentlemen: the ghost of Adam Walker.

Folks starting to show around 10ish. Hell, I guess it would be ideal to play every gig from about 11:30-1:30am at Dillon's; that seems to be prime time.
