OK - so we now have a new website! All you need in one place (contact info etc.) I will continue to keep this blog updated, however.

Special thanks to Ernie Chrysler for working so hard on it . . . it looks great!

Little Texas, Belleville

Had a great time at Little Texas this past weekend. On behalf of the band, I'd like to thank the staff and all those that came out - it was a blast! Check out the video on our player.
We look forward to coming back again.

Cheers,

John

My kind of nostalgia . . .

Time once again for the Prince Edward Auto Club Annual Auto Show.
My favorites are the late 60's and early 70's "muscle" cars.

The music we play fits now - after all, the owners of these classics are folks who didn't grow up listening to 50's rock & roll, but classic 70's and 80's rock. . . Sure there are some old timers, but mostly it's the last of the Baby Boomers who are keeping the old cars alive.

Hope for a good crowd tonight. I was there yesterday and there's about 300 entries this year, so cheers to all! Looking forward to rocking among the camaros and cudas!

ATV riders show support for Stirling couple

Stirling – ATV operators turned out by the dozens Saturday morning to show their support for a Stirling couple.
Friends of Jill and Brett Haggerty of Stirling have been planning the event since February.
“We just wanted to do something nice for them,” said organizer Richard Anderson. “Brett has multiple sclerosis so it’s going to the family for personal use.”
As many as 105 people on all-terrain vehicles turned out for the 40-kilometre run from Stirling to Anson, then to Springbrook, and over to Crookston Road near Tweed, and back to Stirling. The cost of registration was $10.

Lunch was donated by McKeown Motor sales in Springbrook and 40 local businesses donated prizes and items for a silent auction held later in the evening. Items up for auction included jerseys donated by NHL players Matt Cooke, Rob Ray, Mark Dobson and Josh Bailey.

Later in the evening about 250 residents and friends of the family attended a benefit dance with band, Groundspeed, who also donated its services.

“We’d done some research about the MS Society and government funding, and unless you’re fully disabled, there isn’t much funding,” Anderson said. “We don’t want people to feel sorry for them, we want them to think this is a good thing.”

Anderson wouldn’t disclose how much money was raised by the benefit but said the Haggertys were appreciative of the community’s support.

Street dance \ Haggerty Benefit

2 weeks in a row in beautiful Stirling Ontario . . . .there's much worse things in life, for sure.

Street Dance - great turn out, rocking under the stars - overall a great success.

Haggerty Benefit - again, great turn out, and there should be a nice donation coming to a very pleasant, kind and extremely well-liked family in the community.
