WenttoheartheDooRahRidersband.jpg

Tuesday evening we went to Chadron to hear the Doo-Wah Riders band. They are from California. Here is a review of them that was on the internet, "There is no one else like the Doo-Wah Riders. For over 20 years they have been riding their own patch of the musical range throughout the west. They possess the rare combination of may years of experience and youthful energy, fired by a love for what they do. The Doo-Wah Riders are country, with a unique, original sound. They define their style as "high energy country with a cajun twist". Their tight musicianship and powerful arrangements of classic, contemporary, and original songs have made them favorites everywhere they go."

Thank you again Soapweed, my life is enhanced vicariously through the many posters of pictures here. The last few years on here has be a tremendous learning experience without the expense of the travel however has sparked a new direction for the next travel. Some of my next trips will include visits to these new found interests and friends. :-)
