Oh yeah,
My young daughters love the CD - as well as mom and dad of course. Because my six-year-old solicited Mike and Terry to autograph it - the CD became rightfully her property. She and her little sister sing along to it daily. Mike and Terry are right up there with John Ruben and Ticklepenny Corner in their minds.
Our 10 year old niece accompanied us to the Bucyrus show and loved it. She said the Lost Dogs are her favorite new band - Which is kewl because she typically listens to icky-pop like Christina Agulara (or hower she's spelled) and that type of music. She bought "All Day Sing & Dinner on the Ground" too. She and her mother have been enjoying listening to it together.
Live show experiences like these are such a valuable experience for kids (& everyone). When the artists spend a little time talking to them it means so much more than the music itself. Utltimately making the music all that more memorable and the message more relevant to them.
Found Free (later Bash n the Code) was the first progressive Christian band I saw live when I was a kid. Their drummer, Chris Kearney, took time to talk to me and later even follow-up with a couple letters. The music and his small gesture of kindness & honest concern made a lasting and shaping impact in my life. I'm glad that Terry, Mike and others make themselves available for that to happen. And I am blessed to have a chance to enjoy & re-live those experiences with my childeren and other family members . . . uh I mean kin-folk!

- Hey anyone know if Chris & Jamie Kearney are still involved in music?

Thanks for the welcome-a-board (I realize there is a pun there too but out of respect for those present – I’m going to leave it alone) Squidzit.
I tried to video tape the show but as PuP said – my battery pooped out. I don’t think I even got one whole song. It’s a shame because it was a lot of fun. PuP, if you track down the video – I’d love to get a copy.
BTW - The photos you posted turned out great.

This is the first time I've seen Terry perform outside of the Cornerstone Festival. I did catch Mike Rowe last February or March at a Dayton gig with Rikki Michele (If you haven't heard her new album - it is a MUST HAVE!). I am not familiar at all with The Lost Dogs. I have been a Daniel Amos fan since '84 and followed through with The Raptures, The Eddies and such. Lost touch around Kalhoun and was recently reintroduced (by Daniel Amos' numero uno fan Kevin Schaffer who I mention here in case he is reading this) to Daniel Amos through "Songs of The Heart" and "Mr. Buechner's Dream."
Terry and Mike were wonderful... The show ran the gammut from light hearted and hillarious to thoughtful and emotional. True artists.
The setting was more than perfect - Terry and Mike in their cowboy hats performing in a barn amidst the ambiance of horses naying, children laughing, bats flying overhead and of course the three legged (footed?) cow. There was even a free roaming rooster that all the kids enjoyed chasing around the yard - to the dismay of the rooster. There was the perfect spread of food complete with a whole table of homemade deserts.... oh yeah. The auditorium was created from hay bails and a long farm wagon in the back (for higher seating). Everyone was friendly and hospitable from the very young to the elderly - It was a great and perfect night.
In fact after Terry said "...this is what I pictured." He went on to say - "...this is a show we will remember for a long time..." - Kudos for all preperation work that went into this event.
My wife, daughters and niece really enjoyed the show. My six year old kept yelling requests for "Hide the Beer the Pastor's Here" and Arthur Fhardy's Yodeling Party." She also gave their tour manager a belly laugh when he overheard her say Camarillo Eddy "...looks like a homeless guy!"
My family and I enjoyed this show so much that we might plan a trip to visit my old Daniel Amos listening buddy (who nearly drove up to Bucyrus for this show) in Knoxville, TN to coincide with Terry and Mike's show there in October.
Thank you PuP, Chris and the rest...
