We missed your show last night.
Unfortunately, we couldn't get a table for dinner for almost an hour and it was after 10 when we finished. Add the 1 hour+ drive in that monsoon (the parking lot at the restaurant was flooding from the South River overflowing!) and we'd already missed most of your show...
Mea Culpa, my friend...

Please add my apologies and those of Ridgeback as well. We had great intentions and good plans, but by the time we were done with dinner, it was time to take our ark back to the hotel. Very sorry Frankie.

And another. After a "quick" dinner with our nephew (a pleeb at the Academy) and a 15 minute walk back to the car in the rain we were soaked and it was nearly 11. I was very disappointed we didn't drive down anyway but ya' gotta pick your battles. (and we had to get up at 4 to make our flight).

Ah, but the guys from Great Britain made it, as well as Reu and a few others. The place was packed, and we had a good time. I'll try to book something closer next year for all you lazy Americans. :D Oh, and apologies accepted -- it was great hanging out together all weekend with you guys -- Between the RebelCapt collection and the Ridgeback fiasco, I'm more than proud to call you all my friends

Add my name to the List Frankie. I drove up as fast as I could and was still WAY late and caught Jamie, Mike, Ron Ed, and Dayne at the restaurant when they were midway through their meal. 5hours in the rain in DC traffic REALLY blows...LOL. Ron, Dayne, Ed and I basically surrendered to Ed's house and played darts so I would guess we REALLY missed out on some festivity's
Much apologies Brudda! Sometime this year I will absolutely catch a show!
It was REALLY good to catch all the guys at the Thorn Gathering today though. I did have to bug out a few hours early to try and get on the road for the long trek back to Raleigh, but it was a spectacular time!!
Thanks to ALL!!

I would have loved to have seen the band again, but me and the missus had our 20th Anniversary that night and went to see the Bacon Brothers instead. They put on good show, but I'm still missing some of that beer bottle slide action.

Sorry Frankie, the show went an hour later via bus ride delay, didn't get back to the hotel till after 9pm and was raining like hell (just went though major floods in Atlanta) plus the 12 hr drive back Sunday am to get me back home to Atlanta. Frank

Sorry Frankie,
I was still in Massachusetts watching my friend's pink floyd tribute band and drowning my non-"experience" sorrows in the biggest mug of beer I have had in my hands since freshman year of college...:(
So I couldn't make your gig... :o

Why are all of you guys apologizing to this "Frankie" guy? Not like he's any good at guitar. I hear he is in some dumb band or something. I don't know, they're called FART I think? :p

I apologized elsewhere, but I'll grovel here, too.
