New young fans...

fenderfan Joined: Jul 13, 2008 Posts: 783	Posted on Jun 17 2018 09:59 AM We really enjoy it when young kids are at our gigs, dancing and getting a charge out of music that they don't know or care is retro...they just like it. This young lady was having a great time, and very specifically wanted to come up and have a photo with the band when we played yesterday at the annual Lowry Beer Garden Brews and BBQ fest in Denver.

There was a nice variety of people who came to eat and listen to some music. One of the tables was taken by a family with husband and wife and 3 young kids. The father shouted out to us to play one of our spaghetti western like tunes Adios Tuco because his son wanted to hear it. I was kind of surprised about that request when when I found out his son was 8. I asked how he knew our songs and the father said we have your CD Enigma of The Deep and his son knows all the songs. This was an eye-opener for us We played the song and I fumbled through the beginning. When the song was over the father shouted out "He said you didn't play it right" which was true. The moral of the story is to always play your best..You never know who's paying attention even if you think no one is. We should have taken a photo like yours fender fan — http://www.reverbnation.com/theampfibians http://www.reverbnation.com/thesouthgateboys Top

To the point where we have considered releasing a record intended for children.

That's the part that's cool to me. Turning youngsters on to this music and even the electric guitar.
