Macon

Saturday took us to the Douglas Theatre in Macon. This was our first time playing in Macon. The Douglas is just a block or two from the Georgia music hall of Fame. Macon is really steeped in a rich music history. Lots of acts had beginnings in and around Macon from the Allman Brothers and Little Richard as well as the early days of Capricorn Records. We opened for Missy Raines and the new hip. Missy is a great bass player and a well established name in bluegrass circles. She has put together a great young band out of Nashville. The crowd was more than receptive to our music and was a great introduction to the area. We're looking forward to playing in Macon again. Glenn, the sound man, did a first class job and it was a great switch from the technical stresses from the night before. Afterwards, we headed over to Joe Cullison's for pizza and beer, which was fun, but we forgot about the time change so we didn't get to bed until really, really late... Here are some pics from the theatre.
