Let's start off by saying "WOW" because this concert far exceeded all we had hoped for! We were also shocked to find out they had Norton Buffalo jamming with them last night. Our seats were third row (and not even the seats we ordered), but it didn't matter as we were able to get up and dance right in front of the stage. I haven't had this much fun in years and as a band, BBHC has gotten tighter over the years. Lynn Asher was on vocals and she sings from her heart and it shows, she was wonderful.

They also were able to sign my Cheap Thrills album and also The Lost Tapes cd. Everyone was a pleasure to meet and they didn't have that attitude the younger bands have now. Anytime you can walk up to a band member and say hello, it's a true joy. I wish these guys could teach the young musicians out there how to be gracious to your fans.

I had hoped to get a photo with BBHC, but my sharpie was in demand for Norton Buffalo to sign stuff so I got held up. We got a photo with him though so that was really nice. I got a few photos as well from the show, but it's pretty hard to do while dancing and having fun and my camera isn't high end enough to adjust well for the lighting differences.

These guys are like fine wine and they get better with age. If you have a chance to see them again, don't pass it up!

I go to events at this venue (working backstage next week for a show) often and last night's crowd had an amazing energy. There is a true BBHC following here and I can only keep my fingers crossed that they return soon.
