Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
Played mostly in California. Embarking on a Katrina Benifit Tour between Floida to Michigan. Will be doing alot of dates in Illinois, Iowa & Indiana as well as more shows in California. Everyone that comes to our shows relives the golden years of Lynyrd Skynyrd. Many have said we sound exactly like them & that it's just like seeing the boys back in 1976 or 1977. We're recording a CD, and I'm pretty excited about that. I'm looking forward to our 2006 dates starting in Ojai & LA earlier this year. But, we'll be doing dates between California & the Midwest this year.
