A Word from Josh: It's been quite a week, with exciting shows on three consecutive nights concluding tonight. It's been quite a summer with many wonderful experiences concluding tonight. We're looking forward to a spectacular Fall and Winter, refurbished and refreshed following a five week hiatus which begins tomorrow. All this considered, tonight represented a pinnacle of sorts for us; an intersection of reflection and renewal. Fortunately, the show lived up to the gravity of the moment. Serbian Days has been a great festival for us for six years and this was probably the best one yet. The crowd was big and loud. They arrived early and stayed late keeping our feet to the fire for the entire show. We have a lot of things to celebrate and I think it showed. It's been a great Summer and we really appreciate the amazing amount of support we continue to receive from so many people. So many family and friends mixed with long-time fans and complete strangers all united for a good time around great music; this is what it's all about. Sadly, tonight also marked the end of an era as Mark Hartzell, our regular sound man for over seven years, will be parting ways with us. To honor the occasion we dragged Mark on stage to play drums for a song. He seemed completely caught off guard at the gesture, which made the moment that much more fun. So much good spirit in the air. Thanks everybody and we'll see you in a few weeks.     --Josh VOICES FROM THE CROWD: Were you at this show? Would you like to comment on it? Morgan: "Best nite of my life!" Steve Sturdy: "Excellant show as usual, even though the guys were tired from playing out 3 nights in a row! Special thanks to Shane for the great seats, and hospitality. Shane, your the best!" Bittersweeteus: "Friday's show in Juneau was just a warm-up to the show at Serbian Days. Juneau was good, but it seemed somewhat reserved and lacked the pizazz that these guys can produce. Serbian Days, well all I can say, is, you guys Freaking Rocked!! You were powerful and non-stop rocking. Your performance was thunderous and "burn it to the ground" crazy. And John, who's one great-looking, well built, rocking man, tore up that stage with the way he utilized every inch of it to rock everyone around it. Yes, it definitely was an awesome summer rocking out with the PIE! CherryPie left the summer season like a lion showing it's strength and endurance. I'm looking forward to them coming back to a new season of inside venues. I'll miss them during their hiatus but I know they'll come back with a vengeance and ready to kick our ass with their hard rocking music. Plus, I'm anticipating to see what new songs they bring to us. It's going to be interesting." Kong: "never saw you befour but i,m a big fan know you fucking rock your show is the best i,v sene in a long time keep on !!! you will see me agein. kong peace out keep rocking" Susan: "Great show!" Karen: "You guys rock!!" Christine: "GREAT SHOW GUYS!" Dawn: "simply amazing show as usual thanks for the fantastic time" Tracy: "Awesome nite!!" Danielle Gast: "Josh is sooooo cute!"
