My youngest son Kyle put together a road band. He is on tour with them now and has made it to LA and is on his way home. They play at 7:00 pm January 15. If you go please buy the swag! they need the money!

St. Olaf College in Northfield MN. This is his last scheduled show before they arrive home.

I'm sure you will get to see him play banjo as a warm up for the show.

Kyle is 21. He is a good kid, doesn't drink or have other bad habits. I watched him transition from screamo and death metal when he was in 8th grade to jazz in his first year of college to recently playing classical guitar and now to this accustic harmony sound. The six song CD sounds better than a live performance as what they do is hard to control live with very limited equipment and no sound mixing.

In case anyone goes here he is:

Congrats to him Rick! Blue is a nice/popular place.

THe LBC welcomes you Rick!! Pop into The Congregation Ale house around the corner if you have a hankering for a really good beer and a hot pretzel or good Rib Eye Burger.
Have fun and good luck to the band.

So far so good. He forgot his cell phone charger. The only way we know he's ok and still moving is we check the tour schedule and see the events disappear daily. If anyone goes to the show tell him to call him mom once in a while... sheeze!

St. Olaf College in Northfield MN. This is his last scheduled show before they arrive home.

I'm sure you will get to see him play banjo as a warm up for the show.

Oh, and buy the swag, their driving an E350 Ford Van. I'm sure they need gas money.
