It seemed just like an average Saturday night until I received a phone call from ?Dangerous? Doug, and he told me to come out to the Days Inn for the show. I remembered at that point, that I was going to go, but I had got side tracked, working on my car, and I had been over worked all week. When Doug called me I told him I would be on my way in just a few minutes, cause I had to take a quick shower first. I got ready and headed out to the Days Inn, and on my way grabbed a burger at Burger King to spice up my breath for the ladies, and headed into the show. It only cost two dollars to get in, which I thought, was great, because I could not get any entertainment of this type in Nevada anywhere else. I could not do anything else as exciting for the four dollars that I spent last night. Lets see actually not even four dollars. I paid just over a dollar for my burger at BK and two dollars at the door to get into the show, and I drank three sodas at the show, and they are only a quarter each, so that only made three dollars and seventy-five cents. WOW can you believe that! So enough about money, I walked into the banquet room and David Byerly was already on the mic singing and playing. He sounded really good; I was impressed with his guitar skill, and his humor on stage. He made me feel right at home right away. Later Drew joined him on the bass guitar. Next Matthew Harper hit the stage, with Wyatt Brown on the bass guitar. Their set was great, dueling harmonicas, later David on mandolin, and Doug on backing vocals. I was really impressed with Matthews performance, it was right on, and even felt just a little country, which I really liked, and I not really a country fan. So this just goes to show that you never know what you will get with the locals, they continue to surprise, and entertain me each time I go to a concert. After Matthew was done playing he invited his brother ?Dangerous? Doug to the stage, Doug pulled out some laid back mellow acoustic songs, which is not like I usually see Doug perform either. Doug usually does a really upbeat comedy routine, but on Saturday his set was very serious and mellow, until he got Eric Lane Gulliford to come up and play some harmonica. They together pulled out some blues tunes that got the crowd clapping and singing along. Finally all the musicians got up and played together on ?Sweet Home Alabama?. Wow what a show it was, I really enjoyed myself, and I look forward to hearing them all play again.
