RECENT GIGS IN FLORIDA / part 2

       Then there were two gigs at The Cracker Box on McGregor Blvd. in Fort Myers. I think "Cracker" is used advisedly in this context. But a hoot, for sure. A tradition here is someone in the band yelling "Yo!" followed by everyone in the bar responding in kind and taking a good pull at their beer bottle.

        One of the waitresses could sing quite well, and might decide at any random moment to grab the mic and count off a tune. I had the pleasure of playing guitar with the house band while she belted out Deena Carter's 
Did I Shave My Legs for This? It will stay with me for some time...
