Here's a video of Family Tradition Band. We were the house band at the largest drawing club in town for 2.5 years. We placed a lot of focus on our vocal work with 3 lead singers who could also handle harmony. This was recorded by someone from the radio station sponsoring this event. It was the Wrangler Country Showdown contest. I'm the singer at the beginning and on the last song. The last song is an original we played written by me. And yeah... we won that competition that night.



In our live show at our house band gig, we did a ZZ Top "mini show" at the end of the 3rd set on Saturday nights. I think we did 2 or 3 ZZ songs. We grabbed a few brand new mops from the storage room and dyed them brown, and wore them. Some times they would get hung in the strings and mute the notes... That part of the show was never the same from one night to the next, but the people really loved that segment. "Hey are you guys going to do the thing with the mops tonight? " "yep".... "OK cool"

The other 3 players left the stage and we had fun. This video was recorded by a guy who came in to record a few nights of our show for a video we called the "Turn Your Hogs Out Tour"... you had to see some of the women in the club to understand that reference. (Yeah... kinda harsh, but a fair assessment)



I think that's all I have is those 2 videos. Enjoy it.

To answer the question..... yup, that was me in the blue jeans and jacket... Steve the bass player and Geoff the drummer didn't really sing even though they had mics. Steve liked to fake it like he was singing and on the TOP stuff he'd throw in the occasional "yeah" while Geoff loved talking sh&% to the audience between songs and handling announcements. "Last call for alcohol" sort of stuff.

We were just having fun. We started doing that one night just as a joke, we had discussed it for a time and literally played it live the first time with no rehearsal since we all knew the songs..... and the people loved it so much we decided to carry it a bit further. I think Tush was one of the other songs by Top that we played in that mini set. The mop beards came a bit further along.

The rest of the band had no problem with it because they got to go on break 10 minutes sooner and the break was still a full break so they loved it too.

Glad you all are liking it too.
