Had a great Saturday night

[bendtdj]

Doreen and I went to the Royal River Casino in Flandreau, SD on Saturday night. We saw a GREAT concert!

 

On your feet or on your knees, ladies and gentlemen,

Blue Oyster Cult!

 

Eric Bloom and Buck Dharma from the origianal line up were still rocking out. They were joined by Rudy Sarzo on bass (formerly with Ozzy, Ronnie James Dio, Quiet Riot and White Snake), Richie Castellano, from Staten Island, NY, on guitar and keyboards, and Jules Radino, from Long Island, NY, on drums. It was a great time. they sounded as good as I remember the albums from back in the day. These guys were really on fire!

To top it all off, prior to the show, I put a $20.00 in a penny electronic slot machine and after the 20 free spins I won, I walked away with over $100 in profit! I did just what the Steve Miller Band suggested, take the money and run!

 

The casino in Flandreau is booking some bigger name acts in an attemp to compete with a brand new casino in Larchwood, Ia. Both have had some good shows recently. We are looking forward to more.

 

Hope everyone else had a good weekend as well!

I thought that since it was titled fun on saturday. I was expecting a picture of a big deer, since it was opening day. Sounds like fun though......

Bernie,

 

I have not hunted deer for about six years now. Even after my knee replacement, I just cann't handle trudging through the fields. Besides, my two sons and brother-in-law usually each get one, so we do get some of the meat. Cann't beat a good venison steak!

 

Stay warm,

 

Dave
