We’d like to thank the Cheyenne Botanic Gardens for inviting us to play for the Mad Hatter Mixer last Friday. What a wonderful night it was! It is a kick being the Queen of Hearts. Dave Lunn filled in for Jake Johnson on sax and played brilliantly as did Ben Parrish on guitar and Pete McDonnell on drums.
I got this lovely email from Pete Laybourn that meant so much to me:
“It is all too rare that we have an opportunity to thoroughly enjoy ourselves at a Cheyenne social function that was as all around perfect as the garden party Friday night. The night, the site, the food, the purpose and the MUSIC were all of the highest quality. On occasions like that I am always very happy when I feel that our community is hitting the right note and that the activity we are engaged in couldn’t be outdone anywhere, not in Denver, San Francisco or Santa Fe. All of your practice, preparation and equipment management came together harmoniously, what a wonderful accomplishment.”
