A Word from Josh: It was no surprise that tonight turned out to be one of the highlights of our entire year. Headlining the Bud Pavilion on the last Saturday of the State Fair is an awesome position to be in, and we've had the honor of being in that position three times now. With cooperation from the weather, tonight's show was pretty much everything it was supposed to be. My wife even commented on how awesome it is to be married to a "rock star" on a night like this. The crowd was tremendous and we rose to the ocassion in rock star fashion IMHO. The conclusion of the State Fair often seems to indicate the beginning of the end of Summer, but we have many more outdoor shows coming up going all the way to the end of September (brrrrrrrr). It's our version of the Endless Summer. So stay warm my friends and rock on! --Josh Were you at this show? Would you like to comment on it? Dana: "Great Show as Always Guys! Was Good 2 see U Again!" Bittersweeteus: "Hell Yeah!! The CherryPie crazy train was totally stoked and speeding down the rails of rock'n'roll this weekend. The first stop for this train was Belleville. The show started out slow, but once these CP guys hit the second set they were off and running. They hit every note with style and prestige. After they left Belleville, their second stop was, the Wisconsin State Fair. Talk about crazy!! These guys were full bore as they played those instruments with intensity and burning energy. And John, their gorgeous and well built engineer, was at the top of his game and full of so much energy that it poured out into the crowd which turned them into a crowd of rocking crazed fans. What an awesome weekend! Now this is the way to spend a weekend, with the sights and sounds of CherryPie! Plus, a friend sent me the picture of you guys at the State Fair and all I have to say, is, what a fantastic picture! You guys portray in this picture that you love what you do, and that's entertain many a fan and have fun doing it, and that you blend well together to make one hot rocking 80's classic coverband. Great picture and it would make one awesome poster, just saying! You guys totally rule and have many fun times ahead of you! Keep Rock Loud and Keep Rock Strong!" Mel: "It may not be 150 degrees out, but Cherry Pie is! The new guy rocks!" Karen: "Great show guys. It was great seeing you again. See you next time your in Fond Du Lac." Julie: "Sorry that I missed most of your show so that I could go see Slaughter, Great White & Tesla. I'm sure you understand-ha ha! I did get to see the last hour of your show so I got my Cherry Pie "dessert". You guys are so awesome that there was a lady in the crowd wearing white capri pants that must not have wanted to miss anything by going to the bathroom-or she got so excited that she had an accident. Hopefully next year she will get some depends! HA HA!" |
