Almost Famous

So, in the midst of a busy weekend of gigs, we got some cool news from one of our fans who lives in Round Rock. We made the Round Rock Leader newspaper!


The ever-loyal Jan C. sent us a note Saturday morning to let us know we were in the Places & Faces section of the Leader, so on our way to our gig in Lake Whitney, we stopped in Round Rock and picked up a copy so we could see for ourselves. Admittedly, only one of us is visible in the shot, but we're all mentioned, and they even gave a little shout out for Sex & Coffee, so we're very pleased!

The photographer who took the picture, Henry Huey, came to one of our gigs at Junior's Icehouse in Round Rock in July. He took several photos, which he allowed us to share on our Facebook page, but it was a lot of fun to see the shot in the actual newspaper. There's something thrilling about makin' the ole newsprint!

So, a big thank you to the Round Rock Leader for featuring us, and another big thank you to Jan C. for letting us know we'd hit the newsstands - I'd have cried real tears if I'd missed it (or cursed...sometimes I curse)!

  1. Congratulations! It's a great picture, too.

    One thing it doesn't show is... your shoes! How do you decide your footwear for a given performance? I notice that one week it's sandals, the next week it's boots. Just curious...

  2. Nothing too mysterious about it, Ashley. It's mainly about heat. If it's been 100 degrees all day, and we're playing outside, boots are just too hot! But even if it's not too hot or we're inside, I do reserve the right to mix it up with my shoes or outfits. After all, I'm the girl in the band.
