Monday, February 22nd 2010 Hidden Valley's Hickory Sticks Grill on Friday, Feb 13th was great. Turbine opened up the night with a great set. Their version of Herbie
Hancock's "Rockit" was outstanding and their new(er) drummer fits right in with their sound. It was real fun to
play that gig. Kurt got in some skiing before it was time to set up and play. Hidden Valley Ski Resort holds a special place
to us because of our times spend their as teenagers. Thanks to Dave Bryson and we hope you'll be going to Evolve 2010 Next up - A late entry to the gigs - a night at the Donegal on March 5th. We'll also be back there
