Fly, Eagles, Fly



Just Friends made some new friends last night at the Carlisle Eagles. The club is spacious and the crowd is friendly and ready to dance. The usual "first-date" jitters gave way to a pretty good time, and before you know it the set list was out the window as "Proud Mary," "Saw Her Standing There/Slow Down," "For The Good Times" and other tunes just showed up. We had great feedback (from the people, not the amps, thanks to our ace sound engineer, Brian Juran) and we are confident we'll be back. Earl the doorman said, "You sound good and you're not too loud." I tried to be helpful and volunteered to play louder next time.

To those of you who are new to the band, hearing us for the first time or for the first time in a while, we appreciate your compliments and encouragement. The band is working hard in somewhat hard times to find venues and keep people dancing, which we see as a public service. People work hard and they deserve to relax, move around the dance floor and smile for a while. That's our mission.

If you frequent clubs or venues that have live music, mention us to the management. If you get any response from them, please let us know. We're more ready to play than we've ever been. As always, thanks for your friendship and support.
