Hickoids made the drive to Bend to play at Bob's again. He was having a festival at the store/bar and we were giving them three hours of musical love. Smitty brought a bass amp so all I needed was my instrument and some cords, It's a semi-backline!
We jumped in to Freak 3 (she just had her one year anniversary!) and made decent time on the drive. The weather was amazing, the cold rain that had been hitting Austin dried up, the sun came out and it was in the mid 60's. Everyone was happy about that. The freak got unloaded and we started in on our first set. It had a nice, leisurely pace and the crowd was small, but appreciative. At the end Bob, was gonna jump up and play some with us, but Tom's rig started giving him problems so we stopped for a bit.
After the break we hopped up and did a few and THEN Bob got up to help. The second set ended (without amp failure) and we pretty much did the same thing again for the third set but we played different songs. I can't remember the order, but we did a couple of Hickoid songs then some covers like Gloria, Wild Thing and Knockin on Heavens Door. The Hicks (with Bob) were a classic rock band for one glorious Sunday afternoon in Bend TX.
