We all either lived, hung out or played till dawn at good ole 1819 (street name omitted) for a while before the swirling vortex of musical energy manifested itself into an idea to learn and play some songs for a little birthday gathering and open mic performance at the infamous Plank Road Pub. Many hours of playing on 1819's grandiose porch helped, with many people contributing to the fun. So after jamming for a while, we figured, why not give it a go. So onto The Red Barn for more open mic sessions. That led to hosting an open mic every week at Plank Road for a couple years until its end. Those weekly jams helped us get our sound figured out and update our gear and P.A. until we started hitting the road for more adventures. So onward we go, remembering those good times and good friends who we long to pick with again.
FGC makes our Springfield debut this Saturday at the City Nights Theater with Great American Taxi (featuring Vince Herman from Leftover Salmon!). Hope you can make it!
We also want to invite our Myspace friends to connect with us on Facebook. Click the links for the FGC Group and FGC Page, both great ways to stay in touch with the band and link up with other fans.
