Thursday, Sept. 27th gig in Culver, Indiana at the “Culver Academy”
Hello! Today we were in Culver, Indiana along with “The Low Cash Cowboys” to do a show at the Culver Academy for the students. The school is mainly a military school, established back in 1894 by Henry Harrison Culver. It became co-ed several years back. Culver also has “The Black Horse Troop,” the biggest calvary left in the U.S. The campus was beautiful and you could sense the order and discipline of the students and the inner workings of the school. Our show was in the “Steinbrenner PAC,” which was a brand new building built for the arts. The school is scholastically known for leadership.

We got to take a tour of the campus and look at the various buildings. They were so beautiful and majestic. We even got to go have lunch in the mess hall. After soundcheck, we got to chill for a while and the new PAC had a great sounding stairwell for me to play my fiddle in! I hung out there and played for a good while. I find that I’m creatively inspired in certain places due to the awesome sounding reverberating acoustics. These places would be: a stairwell with 2 or more flights and brick walls, locker rooms with huge showers (not running of course) ., and hee hee, bathrooms. So I felt at home!

This was our first show with the “Low Cash Cowboys” and they got the crowd fired up for us! All of the students loved us and it was interesting because the had all of the guys one side of the room, the faculty in the center and the ladies on he other side. So throughout the show we would get them into screaming matches to see who could scream louder. They were all having a great time! We did an encore of “Sweet Home Alabama” with Low Cash and we all got to rock the house. After the show we got to meet everyone and sign military shirts, hats, etc. (hope we didn’t get you guys in trouble). We felt so welcome in Culver! Thank you for having us!
