Saturday: Main Stage at Sonshine '06 in MN
Sun., Jul. 9. 2006 10:25pm EDT
As we mentioned in last week's newsletter, we played played 22 concerts in the 40 days from May 26 through July 4 (Memorial Day Weekend through Independence Day Weekend), so we took the weekend of July 7-9 off.
We'll be back in action this Saturday, July 15, as we'll play the 25th annual Sonshine festival in Willmar MN. It's our fifth straight year at Minnesota's oldest and largest Christian music festival, but this year is the first they've asked us to play the main stage. Come see us there at 2 p.m.

Sonshine will be our only concert that weekend, because Karl's oldest sister, Lisa, is having her wedding reception the next day. She's also Keith's sister-in-law, so you know where our lead guitarist and bass player will be! Lisa was one of the original musicians in APNAB (Absolutely Positively Not A Band), the informal "group" that Karl and J. formed with original ApologetiX drummer Jeff Pakula back in 1990, a group that eventually morphed into ApologetiX.
