People’s Choice @ Painted Horse Pavilion (05/06/2011)

A walk down memory lane.  :)  We’d seen Bucky at Giddy Ups a couple of nights ago and he reminded us the band was playing this weekend…..we had to go.  Our dear friend, Dobie, had introduced us to People’s Choice.  When she owned Country Music Showplace (now known as Stardust Club), she regularly booked the band into the club.  That was “several” years ago, but….unlike some bands…..People’s Choice still pulls a crowd every time they play.  They play mostly covers, but have some great originals…..lots of talent…..lots of dance music for the dancers.  We only stayed through the first set and when we left, people were still arriving and making their way through the doors, paying the cover charge, and having a great time when they got inside.  Pretty good recommendation, huh?  :)

Her 21st birthday, and what was her gift? Her special someone hugging her when she thought he was still in Iraq. :)
You think she was enjoying her gift? :)

This is one of the things special about The Painted Horse Pavilion.....it's very family friendly :)


Sorry we didn’t get a picture of the guys “behind the scene”, Vince Batla and Rocky!  Maybe next time?

Sometimes the conditions aren’t right for perfect pictures, but then the fun factor kicks in and it just has to be captured.  Tonight was one of those nights!

Sam & Olin....We know it isn't a "great" picture, just liked the effects of the lights. :)
Sam & Olin. Another "gee we like effects of the lights" picture. :)
Crystal in her "dream truck". The owner was showing her the truck, gave her the keys and told her to take it for a spin....then, he went back inside to dance. Now that's trust!! :)
On the finale, the gals got with the program. ;)

Olin got them on stage for as an impromptu "choir"
The "choir" gets with the program! :)
The whole "Sam Bentley Choir"
They did a pretty good job!

They look pretty happy, too.
Hallelujah!!!!!!!!!!!

It’s rodeo time in Texas with the San Antonio Stock Show starting in a few days.  Every year since 1983, GRA Trailriders have made the trek to the show the old-fashioned way…..on horses.  Well, okay, now they might have some campers and trucks to haul equipment, but the people arrive on horseback.  ;)  The start is in Kyle and was kicked off at the Painted Horse Pavilion with a BBQ and dance.  Now, just to make sure there was a “party”, the dance was opened to the public, and the “public” took advantage of the opportunity.
