Brewsters-Friday 03/24/2000
This was our first gig without Tim on guitar, and all in all in went pretty good. I can't say that we didn't miss Tim at times, but Greg Billingsley is a wonderful guitarist, and he exceeded our expectations. We hope that he had as much fun as we did, and that he will decide to stay with Blues Cat for a long time.

Brewsters is still benefiting from the closure of Chicago Pizza, and we had a lot a partying people there Friday night. Here are the highlights:

 Of course Greg's guitar playing was the highlight for us. We were nervous going in to a 4 hour gig with almost no rehearsal, but Greg pulled it off and then some.
My personal highlight was the fact that Shania Twain's ass was there again, and it was on the same girl that it was on last week. She can move it even better than Shania does.
The staff at Brewsters are getting used to working even harder than usual. There are a lot more thirsty and hungry people hanging out at Brewsters since Chicago Pizza closed. Anyway, the staff did a wonderful job, and we luv all of 'em. 
The swing master was there, and his wife gave him permission to stay late so that he could stand on stage and play dual tambourines for a whole set...very weird!
Alex was there. He is setting up a mall tour of south Georgia for us, with The Beatles opening. I'm just kidding, but he does have some shows for us coming up that we will be sure to let you know about.
Mark Evans was there, and he promised that when he is in the right frame of mind (so drunk he can't remember his name), he will sit in on bass.

This gig marks a new beginning for Blues Cat, and we hope that the next three years are even better than the last three.
Sports Cafe-Saturday 03/25/2000
We came to the Sports Cafe with more confidence, because Friday night at Brewsters had gone so well. We left the Sports Cafe with the feeling that we could conquer the world.

Greg's guitar playing lifted us to a level of energy and excitement that we haven't felt for a while. Plus, Randy Dorris was on congas all night, and the crowd was as enthusiastic as any we have played for. The end result was almost magical, and we left high on the knowledge that we had created something very special.

There is no need to list the trivial events of this night, as the music took center stage, although do I have to admit that our one dancer of the night, did take my mind off the music for a moment.

We apparently impressed the owners of the Sports Cafe as well, and we will be playing here quite a lot in the coming months. This is becoming a really cool club and we hope that our fans will continue to support their effort to bring good music to the Southside.
