“I was born for this.”

First things first. Let’s get acquainted.

You know Josh, Geoff, and Nick…but do you know…

…Jeremy Stanfill
- Jack-of-all-trades, ultra-cool opening act and tour drummer for Star & Micey.

…Jessie Munson
- The tour’s only member without a Y chromosome – she’s the cute, unassuming violin player in the background.

…Adam Woodard
- Wordly, energy-filled accordion virtuoso that’s gotta be dragged out of the venue because he’s playing “Wheels on the Bus” or “The Final Countdown” to an enamored bunch.

…Aron Shiers
- Calm, cool, and collected tech-genie and talented songwriter. He’s in charge of changing Nick’s guitar strings after every other song.

Alright, so Day One of this Gulf Coast extravaganza was a rousing success. The van ride in Uncle P proved hot, entertaining, enriching, raunchy, and anecdote-filled. Similar was the case in Bay St. Louis and the Mockingbird Café. The folks here treat us as family. I stepped out of Uncle P, walked in to the Mockingbird, and was greeted by a slew of people that made me feel as if I had been a regular there all my life. The guys put on a fantastic show to an exceptional crowd on a beautiful outdoor space. Everyone here is so carefree, hospitable, selfless, and genuine – one in particular: Steve Dewitt. I cannot sing this man’s praises enough. He has been kind enough to provide a homebase for us. By that, I mean comfortable beds for everyone, hot showers, cold drinks, outstanding food (including fresh, hand-rolled sushi and delicious made-to-order omelets), a glorious swimming pool (complete with waterslide), and a wonderful, warm, homelike atmosphere. A thousand thanks to him and his family.

Today, we’re going to see what kind of swirltastic hijinks we can conjure up in Fairhope, Alabama. As I type, we’re en route to the Windmill Market for a day show, and tonight we’re headed to the Fly Creek Café! Check out the live streams of both!

More soon.
