Tropic Culture

Its time to drop a line or two and wanted to write about our past month and a half dates.
First I like to start with the Acoustic set for the GAP's 40th year anniversary celebration. WE got the priveliage to perform an acoutic set at the Greensboro Four Seasons Mall. Most importantly we met some wonderful individuals: James, John, Dotie, Emily, Dale and others that I really can't remember off the top of my head. Thanks for the support and being there for Tropic Culture.

The Following week we made it over to the Blind Tiger in Greensboro, NC. Doc was a great host and gave us the oportunity to throw down at the Blind Tiger. Thanks Doc and everyone there to support us: Julie, Aaron, and many of our friends from the area.

That Saturday we ended up playing an acoustic set at Pura Vida Worldly Art. not only was it fun, it was a great intimate experience with everyone's eyes on us. The liscening room was great and Teresa was a great host. We met Carlos, The videographer and Alex, the photographer. Both great individuals that love what they do. We certainly appreciate the love for the arts, not just music but photography, arts, andvideography. Teresa thanks and all who attended the events.

Labor day weekend came by really fast and hit us a mini tour of three shows that weekend. On Friday we played at the Rock Shop, where we shered the stage with some pretty nice rock bands from different areas: The Token Black Experience, Gaylord, and Sixgun Republic. Thanks Shawn for having us there, love the place. And to all the musicians and bands, preciate the compliments.

Its was rough that night as we left the rock shop at 3:40 in the morning to arrive in Jacksonvill, NC at about 6 in the morning. We had to meet Benjie at 11 in the morning to register our ourself to get into Camp Lejeune. We played that afternoon at onslow beach. The weather was relly relaxing, wind was going and Gabes (Lead Guitar) family and friends were there to cheer, amongs others. We really appreciate the hospitality that camp lejeune and families have presented to us. We got the privalage to eat some puertorican and mexican dishes before and after the show. Boy was that good. Can't wait to go for some more. By the way, Thanks Susan for having us.

Finally we woke up Sunday Morning to drive back home to get ready for our Midtwon Sundries at the Lake show. We got the opportunity to open for Bankie Banks. You guys have to check him out. Cool stuff. Gene was a great host as always and we enjoyed every minute of it.

For now that is all and thanks for all of you that make the Tropic Culture world happen.

Hasta Next time,
