June 2009 Bubba D. Liverance Update

Hey yall!

Just returned home from a 4 day run in Tennessee and Arkansas, and for the next few weeks, most of our playdates are in Alabama.  One of the very best clubs in Alabama (or the entire country) is the War Eagle Supper Club in Auburn.  We’ll be doing several “special appearance” shows beginning June 14, and again on June 28th and July 5th.  These will be early shows beginning at 8pm (hey, I like early shows so I can get home and get my beauty rest).

The Supper Club has been in business since the 1930’s and is owned by two great guys, John Brandt and Snapper Cadenhead.  I’ve seen everyone there from David Allan Coe, Little Feat, Kinney Chesney, Cheap Trick, and now Rev. Bubba D. Liverance & the Cornhole Prophets plan to make their mark!

Also, we’re playing our first South Carolina date at the Rendezvous in Greenville, SC August 15 and 16.  Our buddy Spanky Jim Miller will be hosting and I can guarantee you the Cornhole Prophets will be “throwin’ down”!  We’re going to try and “con” our good friends The Fabulous Shades into joining us onstage.

Had my first conversation yesterday with ‘Fessa John Hook” from the Endless Summer Network.  What I thought would be a 5 minute chat, became an hour long.  My knowledge of music history pales in comparison to the good ‘Fessa and I wish we could have continued for a few more hours.  This guy literally “wrote the book” on Beach Music and Shag Dance and has a hilarious story about nearly every song and every artist in the genre. 

Got an email from a girl in North Carolina saying she heard Pat Patterson playing the song “Let My Peoples Dance” on John FM out of Charleston (she was probably listening online or maybe travelling through Charleston).  We’ve never released that particular song as a single, but we’re mighty happy it’s getting airplay.  Thanks Pat!

Yall be cool, and we hope to see you soon!  Bubba D. Liverance
