WBY played a birthday party for (Pick) Nick Saturday night (August 2) at the Etna Brewery. We played an ole "Beetles" tune for several birthdays in the crowd...Much thanks to all the folks who cheered and whistled
for Nick. Marilyn and staff treated the band to pastries after the show..sweet
hostess...WBY

By the light of the silvery moon Wild Blues Yonder played at the "Spoon". What a great place to play...The Old Yreka Bakery brick wall made the perfect backdrop. It was constructed in 1858 and given a fresh sound massage by WBY in 2008...We hope to play
there again in August...
Much Thanks to our Spoon family and friends....

WBY played Evo's coffee lounge
in Ashland and we wanted to thank Daniel and Bridgette for the opportunity. It was a test of our dynamics as we had to play
soft and sweet. We felt very appreciated by the staff and patrons and we hope to play outside next time so we can let it fly...We are still gunning for Alex's so let them know...

The new "Toast" Bar was rockin with WBY Saturday night til late.
Folks had fun and the new owners are great..Thanks for having us and lets get those fires out so we can all breathe a bit easier...

Thanks to all listeners and the folks at the Etna Brewery for
the fun show Saturday night. There were 400 downstrikes of lightning in our area and many started fires. We lucked out,
the storms cleared and we all had our Soulstice on a perfect crisp night...shorter days from now on...Peace

Thanks to Rob, Kim and Sandy for hosting our show in their tavern.
Great energy was provided by the young folks from Campus Vi
in Etna who really got into it with Ralph. Be sure to check out the
Emporium store on your way to the lake....

WBY just sweated out a Video performance recorded by MCTV Channel 15 . It will be aired in the Mt. Shasta area. After adjusting light combinations, wiring hurdles, and changes in wardrobe we managed to pull this off. Film crew was great....We want to recommend to other bands to do this... contact Nick for more info...

The Elsewhere Skies CD release party raged on despite the lightning and downpour. We played in the front bar of the Silver Spoon and performed for dining guests and fans. Jan was most gracious and treated us special. We hope to play there again out back on the patio.
