[iamthebassman]

Yes, every January I ask y'all to vote for us in the Austin Music Poll. I/we certainly appreciate all the help.
Now, here's the thing: We've won Best Cover Band 9 years, if we win 10 years we will go into the Austin Music Hall Of Fame!
And, if you don't mind, vote for me for Bass, I came in 6th last year!

Voting is quick and free! You do not have to vote for every category, just the ones you want. Entries must be received by February 1, 2013.

To vote, go here:

And a GREAT rendition of 'Birthday'!!!!

Ah yes, Jovita's. One of our favorite South Austin haunts, shut down by the Feds last year. Seems the owner was using it as a front/money laundry for his heroin biz.
We used to really "let our hair down"(so to speak) and play some deep album cuts there.


Oh, and VOTE PLEASE!!!

YIPES!.....

But "deep album cuts" are great..... ever do "Things We Said Today"? Great song and very approachable. I used to do it in my old band, but I estimate that The Eggmen would do it about 427% better.

Done! Enjoyed the clips, thanks Ronn
