Tonite @ the Merchant Tap House in Kingston 10 pm No cover!
The Spades + Travis Good (Sadies)
I understand the way the shows have been going is that Travis opens with 10 - 12 originals (backed by The Spades), followed by a full set by The Spades, with Travis guesting on quite a few numbers. Gotta love that!
There's also a rumour that a certain well known bass player may be joining The Spades on stage tonight as well.
and no freakin' cover!!!!:thumb: Gonna be one helluva night! Bring it on K-town!
Um, aren't you IN the Spades?
No.....but my son is, so i'm not unfamiliar with the band :wink:
Great nite last nite btw. Wall to wall people and the boys were on fire.
Travis Good was absolutely smokin'! Opened his set with a blistering version of Maggie's Farm and never looked back. Later in the evening, he rejoined The Spades and Gord Sinclair for a version of 49 Tons that I swear rattled the gates of Old Fort Henry.
