MARCH 23, 2011
BK LOUNGE

We had very nearly a full house as the Stranger Creek Band began what turned out to be a fantastic show. The beautiful, warm weather had every one in a good mood in spite of a storm watch for the evening that never did materialize.

Sitting in with the band was Dobro player, Fred Uzell. Fred is a great Dobro and Steel Guitar player who appears regularly on Annie's Country Jubilee every Saturday night in Tonganoxie KS. He drew great applause on every number he played for us.

Jerome Oberle came up and performed two or three numbers on his all button accordion, he does a wonderful job of playing it and is always well received by the fans.

We were excited to see Jim Winter, another performer from Annie's come in and he agreed to step up and close out the first half with his magnificent voice. The audience certainly wanted more and were promised he would return in the second half.

After the intermission, we were honored to have Amanda Brock join us and perform three songs. She has beautiful voice and her singing was appreciated by everyone. We certainly hope she and all of our other guests come back again soon.

We are informed that John Macek is progressing well from his recent surgery. He is still in Mid-American Rehabilitation Hospital and will very probably come home on Monday. If you want to talk to John, you can get phone information from the blog below.
