This was a typical crowd for us at Schroeder Hall. We were opening for Roger Creager in this particular photo. I’m sure the bar filled up completely right around the end of our second-to-last song.

I can’t complain though. The staff at Schroeder was always great to us. We would follow every sound check with the best home cooked chicken casserole and apple cobbler provided by one of the sweetest bar owners in all of Texas.

I always wished we had done better in Goliad if for no other reason than to repay all those wonderful meals.

Also entirely worth mentioning were the die hard fans that would make the long drive. Usually they’d hide in the shadows during the show, but I knew they were there. I loved that they were there.

The band: Adam Svoboda (now with Rich O’Toole) on guitar and Eric Lenington (now with Kyle Park) on bass. Both of these guys are great performers. Go check them out and say hi if you ever get the chance.
