Nothing like some
home cooking to make you excited about touring again. Playing for old friends, local fans, and some regular faces here in good ol’ Salt Lake City is always a comforting feeling. In spite of being sick much of the week with a cold, I think we put on one hell of a show. The sound guys at Liquid Joe’s always do an incredible job and the staff has always treated me great – speaking of, thanks Doorman Chuck for the special “voice enhancing” herbal tea.
Half-way through the show I decided to give out some surprise awards to a couple guys who have meant a lot to the Kevin Burdick machine over the last few years. It made sense to do it now, as we won’t be in Utah much of June and July. Chris “Scoop” Einer, who always does a great job with local promotions, was presented with a special crystal beer mug with his SDP (Scoop Dawg Promotions) initials engraved on it. Ken Gray, who has done a hell of a job managing the business side of things, was presented with a his own bass guitar (he’s always said he wished he could play). I guess this would be an ideal time to thank all of the people in Utah that have supported me over the last several years. It’s been a wild, challenging, and totally fun ride! A huge thank you to everyone who has made it possible for me to be out there sharing my music with other parts of the country!!
The end of the night found me and the guys sharing burritos at the 24-hour Rancheritos, laughing and watching Doucet (guitars) and Ben (merchandise) trash talk
before/during/after playing NBA on the Xbox. It was one of those epic, unforgettable, music nights.
A special thanks to my friend Christian Ashton of Overtone Recordings and Media Group for coming out to the show – great to see you again bro!! Hope my crew took good care of you and that you had a great time rocking it Kevin Burdick Style.
