This Week in Blandelles History
January 17, 2009...The Blandelles played at Lone Star Cafe in Dallas.
In my opinion, the little club in a strip center in Dallas has been the best to us. Over the years we have played there 42 times and most have been really good shows. This one was a really good show and we really enjoyed it.We played this show with a bit of a changed lineup. Duke had gone out to California to get married, so he missed this one. Barry Compton was our regular drummer at the time, but he played bass here and of course he did great. Our friend Ryon Gilliam played drums and he was good, too.
One of the highlights of this show was the birthday paddling that some old guy got on the dance floor:
I never saw this guy before or after that, and I never saw this happen again. That's too bad because we all really enjoyed it. Yes, she used a boat oar.
