We slept in this morning – so we were late checking out of the hotel next to Portmans Music in Savanna, Georgia – where Kent hosted a drum clinic today. The clinic was great. Kent’s a confident teacher who held the audience in the palm of his hand for the 90 minute show, through tales of touring, being a session drummer for famous acts and playing shows in front of huge crowds.

After the clinic we played an acoustic song in the store & filmed it for the next monthly Hose Down email (due out this week). After recording the song, we met a Hula Hoop dancer called Jessica, who proceeded to demonstrate this wonderful skill for us in the parking lot. Maybe she’ll join us on stage when we’re back in Savannah later this year. (That’s her in the pic above)

Right now, we’re on the road to New York City, driving through South Carolina (we’ve got some miles ahead of us). Our next show is Arlene’s Grocery on Manhattan Island NYC, this Wednesday at 7pm.

Checkya tomorrow,
Fires out.
