Then it was off to sound check at the Warrenton Moose Lodge! I knew we were in good hands when Scott (Yoko Says No) showed up to do sound. We also met up with brother Ed there. The party was a blast! We had a few guests sit in Chris (Yoko Says No), Donna Britton (our songwriter friend) ands Amy Lane. Jimbo and the Road Ducks sounded great. It's always a good show with NorthStar and the Road Ducks!
