Just A Little News From The Road
07/07/10 Happy Independence Day!!!! We just got back from
a GREAT weekend in South Bend, Indiana where we played the St. Joseph County Fair. We took our trailer in and played a Friday and Saturday night concert, about 30 minutes before the rodeo. We pulled into the arena and
set up and played. When we were done, we had to break down FAST and get out of there. Each night it took us only
8 minutes to be out of the arena. We had a blast. Sunday
evening we did a concert from 8:30-10PM just before the fireworks. We had a great time doing air guitar contests, shooting
t-shirts into the crowd and playing some good, fun music. By the end of the concert we had about 2,500 folks there.
We wanna say a special thanks to Lee Slavinskas, Mark
Tingle, and the gang at the fairgrounds. We look SO forward to working with you guys again. Casey
06/14/10 Hey guys, hope you are all doing well. We just got
back from a weekend in Brooklyn, Michigan where we ministered at the NASCAR race. We played Friday night and Saturday
night at the Brookfest Campground at Michigan International Speedway. We had great crowds, with Saturday being around 4,000-4,500 folks. We had a great time!! Click HERE for some of the pics from the weekend. Also, be in
prayer for Leo. He lost his step-dad on Friday morning, while we were on the way to the track. I will take him
to the airport tomorrow as he flies to Texas to do the funeral. Casey
05/03/10 We just got back from another weekend in LA (Lower Alabama).
We ministered Wednesday night at Wings of Life. This is a Bible based drug and alcohol rehab center in Mobile, Alabama. It was a blessing to be there and
we got to meet some really neat folks. Thursday
we spent the day shooting music videos at Mudbrick Media in Mobile, AL. We wanna send out a special thanks to Denny, Frank and the boys over there. Thanks for your warm
hospitality. You guys are a blessing. Friday night,
we did a small intimate concert at Java 5, in the Mudbrick Media building. This was lots of fun and we got to know many new friends and see some old ones. Blessings, Casey

Hey guys, we just got back from a weekend at Talladega Superspeedway. We partnered with Dan Cowart of Fellowship Ministries for this race, and used his
big stage. Unfortunately, we didn't get to use it very much. Becuase of extreme weather, we were unable to perform
Friday night. After sitting around all day Saturday, we took the stage around 9PM, but were cut short due too an approaching
storm and lightning in the area. We were able to get in about an hour or so, before we were told to stop. We'll make
it up next time. Look forward to the next race. Blessings, Casey
04/07/10 Hey guys hope you all had a happy Easter. We had
the opportunity Monday to play at Brooke Army Medical Center in San Antonio, TX for our wounded soldiers as part of the Show Of Support Appreciation Day 2010. It was truly a blessing to give back just a small portion to those who have given so much for
our freedoms. Thanks to Terry Johnson and everyone at Show Of Support for allowing us to be part of this. Tuesday morning
we traveled to Castroville, TX to give a small accoustic show at the Medina Valley Health and Rahabilitation Center. Leo's dad is there while he is battling lung cancer. Please be in prayer for Leo and his dad, Verlin Catron,
while they go through this difficult time. Thanks to the folks at Medina for your hospitality and for all that you do. Blessings, Casey
03/26/10 Hey guys we just got back from Alabama where we played
two Freedom and Family Concerts with special guest Judge Roy Moore. Our first one was on Wednesday night in Troy, Alabama at the Pike County Cattleman's Building. Thursday night was in Huntsville, Alabama at the Botanical Gardens. We had a great time and wanna thank all who made these concerts possible. Talk to ya soon. Blessings, Casey
Hey guys, just wanted to let
you know about the Reel Thanx welcome we did Wednesday night in Midland, TX. It was just Leo, Troy and myself, and we met at a small shop/warehouse
and played some tunes for 8 soldiers being honored with a fishing trip this weekend. We played some songs off of our
Freedom Ain't Free CD and presented the heroes with a CD, a victory medal, and several gifts that we draw for at NASCAR outreaches. Thanks to Randy and Mike for inviting us. We love you guys. Blessings, Casey

Hi again folks, we are returning from
a weekend in Texas. Thursday we played a cowboy camp meeting in Aubrey, TX. We had so much fun. Thanks for
including us guys. Friday and Saturday we were at Texas Motor Speedway. We always have a great time here and this was no different. We honored our veterans and had a blast playing
some country and southern rock music. Check out our picture page for some photos from this weekend.

We just finished our Fall Talladega race. We had a great weekend, despite many oppositions. On Friday while setting up, Leo bumped his head and had to
receive SIX staples. The only good thing about this was seeing his hair all messed up. Anyway, he did a good job
on Friday and made it through. More oppositioin on Friday
night/Saturday. RAIN!! Rain and red Alabama clay do not mix!! Also, Zach Brown had a halloween concert on the
infield (had over 15,000) and that took some of our campground crowd away. Oh well, we still had a blast!!! We have a few pictures up from the weekend on our picture page.

and allowing us to come in.

We just finised the ICM convention and
awards show in Nashville, TN. We had a great time and were honored to be voted ICM Entertainer of the Year for the second

Saloon in Nashville, Tn during this week. Lots of fun.

We had the opportunity back in June of
2008 to play for a company of Texas National Guard Troops from Midland, TX that were being deployed to Iraq for 14 months. It was an awesome privelage and we were honored
to be part of it. Wednesday, August 26th, we were blessed to be part of a ceremony that honored these soldiers as they
returned from their tour of duty. It was an emotional return. Thanks for letting us be part of this. The next day we played a small intimate show for Reel Thanx, honoring six wounded soldiers being taken on a fishing trip. These soldiers were from Camp Pendleton in San Digeo, CA and Ft. Carson in Colorado. Thanks again for letting us take part in this ceremony.
