The California Mid-State fair is a cool place for them to play. They get a lot of pretty big name acts there. It's not like they are playing a little county fair where the entertaiment is has beens!

Yeah, read the concert listing of all the acts they are getting and this is certainly not a backyard picnic. They have quite a few grammy winners on the roster.

Sweet! I wouldn't be surprised if we start seeing more dates popping up here and there.. Looks like we could possibly get an album this fall.

I wonder if any new music will be played or they will wait for the album..? I'm thinking the second part.. Maybe one new song for the movie and one cover :-\

Hopefully we will hear something new.  Like you said, probably just teh new movie song if that.. Who knows though, they could throw us a bone.

I always thought you played a state fair if you were on your way up or on your way down.
