Rockin' the night away at Cedar River Landing



















The Olive Street Band played at Cedar River Landing the other night to a GREAT crowd of family, friends and live music lovers. Some highlights from the night include a thunderous rendition of "Badlands," and a blistering version of "All Along the Watchtower" featuring special guest, Matt Rector (younger brother of drummer, Tom Rector), on lead guitar. The band also rumbled through an extended playing of "Santa Claus is Coming to Town," played especially for the holiday season...and it wasn't hard to get into the holiday spirit with the heaps of snow outside.

The final three songs of the night "Proud Mary," "All Summer Long," and "Don't Stop Believing" even got Wade Ireland up and dancing. There were special shout outs to my aunt, Lisa Arenholz who was in the house all the way from San Antonio, Texas, and a dedication of CCR's "Looking out my Backdoor" that went out to my dad (Wade).

It looked like those who were there were enjoying themselves, which is all that counts at the end of the day. A big thanks to those who braved the cold and the snow and came out on Friday night!! It was so good to see so many smiles on so many friendly faces. The band will be playing in the area again soon...stay tuned!
