the old ceremony

Great show last Friday at the Pour House.  Always love seeing you guys play.  First caught you a few years back at Floyd Fest in the beer garden and my wife and I have been catching shows ever since....james

Tell me:  were you absoLUTEly phenomenal last night?  ...Or just head-shaking awesome?  No, noooo, don't answer that; I may begin crying again.   
I sure missed not being able to see you, with Benji Hughes opening.  Big love for every one of you, and the incredible power of your songs! 

mark stole my blue bic lighter at snug harbor. but i forgive him.

--There once was a songster named Haskins,

His music was ours for the askin’.

He’d croon us a tune,

Made our hearts swoon,

And now in the spotlight he’s baskin’.

 


--He delights us between songs with banter;

Charm pours from his finest decanter.

We drink up his charm,

That leaves our hearts warm,

We’re tipsy;  he’s
quite the enchanter.

 



--Boy “Django” his parents did name him,

Book smarts and music became him.

Creativity soars,

The crowds, how they roar,

To hear favorite songs; who can blame them?!

 



--So play what you will for Asheville,

Then hurry on back to the Hill…

(We send birthday wishes,

Feed your ego – ummm, delicious!)

To pen songs with keen wit and skill. 



-- Django celebrates a birthday today,  

Congrats, via facebook*  myspace communique!

Your Fall tour is done,

Your fans ALL had fun;

Forever in our hearts you’ll stay.

 




[Lame, I know.  It's the thought that counts. 
Happy birthday, Django!  Here's to seeing BIGGER doors opening for The Old
Ceremony and you soon!!!]

Heard Till My Voice Is Gone on KNC Friday... Great song.

loving the music! i really like the style!

In the Triangle, there are hundreds of bands playing shows out here and there.  Of those, there are scores and scores of really good groups.  So picking my top 15-20 is difficult, not that it really matters for anything or anyone but myself. 

But if I were jointly putting a compilation cd together to represent the region, I can tell you it'd be really difficult.  And, hahaha, not just because I'm a Virgo! 

So when The Old Ceremony was selected as one of just 17 artists to be featured on the HEAR HERE Compilation cd for North Carolina's Triangle region, I know they got that right.   And "Gone Go the Memories" is another TOC fave of mine. Congratulations, Django, and all of The Old Ceremony!

Where are the new joints from the old ceremony? seriously...BOOM!!! Sincerely, Wicked C.
