This weekend, as some of you likely already know, we're performing at Valparaiso University. I'm quite excited about the show; it presents us with a good opportunity to expand our fan base (ffffaaaannnn bbbbaaaasssseeee...), as we'll hopefully be playing for a bunch of folks who've never heard us before. That's an exciting prospect! If you're in the Valpo area this weekend, please stop by and catch the show! 8:00 p.m. on Saturday in the Union Roundtable (I think). It's better than watching King Kong, right?
Heck, even if you're not in the area, gasoline is certainly cheap enough that you could load up the car for a road trip. You could call yourself a... well, I'm not sure what. I was thinking of something along the same lines as "Dead Head" or "Hill Head" (followers of the Grateful Dead and Storyhill, respectively, in case you didn't already know that). What would ours be, though? "Time Heads?" "CST-Heads?" "Timers?" Hmm... None of those sound particularly cool. Any other suggestions? "Charliegans?" I kinda like that one.

Write us a set list!
Howdy. Well, in case you haven't already noticed, we have a couple shows coming up later this month. The first is on April 22nd at Uptown Bill's small Mall, a nice lil' venue in Iowa City (show time is 7:30 and cover is $3, by the by). The second is a week later, April 29, at Valparaiso University in Indiana. You should totally go to both of them!
The first of those shows will be pretty relaxed and informal, as our past gigs at the small Mall have been. It's a cozy, living room-like space, which makes a nice atmosphere for music. It's almost like a house concert, only not in a house.
Anyhoo, since it is such a relaxed environment, and should be a pretty laid-back show, I thought we should invite you, our faithful fans and readers, to create our set list. Sounds like fun, eh?
Now, I suppose it would be prudent to make some sort of disclaimer stating that we may not follow the set list exactly as its laid out for us. For instance, we might say that we reserve the right to change the order of songs. And of course, if someone decided it would be fun to add a song we don't know or can't play... well, then we might not play it.
Anyway, suggest a song. As the date approaches, we'll compile the list of suggestions and post it for your perusal. Then you can look at the list and say to your friends, "Hey, I suggested they play that song!" and your friends will be duly impressed. Good stuff.
