An AIDT First

For several years All In Due Time has tried to break onto the stage at Bountiful's Handcart Days celebration. This was our year and the experience was worth the wait. We fought through some minor technical difficulties and even had to put up with having our set pushed back by the unannounced arrival of Carmen Rasmussen. The weather wasn't helping much either. The heat was excruciating, toping 102 degrees farenhiet by one report. We prevailed though and we might have put on our best sounding most eclectic set yet. We feel gratified by the response from the good citizens of Bountiful and look forward to next year! Check out some early video: Grey Street

Rockin' Down The Highway

Here's a look at what it's like to ride along with the band during the 2006 Handcart Days Grand Parade. In this clip we're just crossing 1500 South onto the parade route with our first number.

The parade, in passing

Our first parade performance was by most every measure a success. Technical issues were minimal, the wait was not unbearable and the parade route not too long. We picked our four best songs and got a good response to most all of them. We saw many friends and fans on the route - thanks for being there for us! It's a rush to hear you cheering. It was also rewarding to see so many people (fans and newbies alike) moving to the music. Mike, Ross and others noted that we need to do the parade again next year. Perhaps we have a new tradition brewing? Click on the comments link and tell us what you think.

Doctors Orders

Our pre parade wait gives us time to consult the Official Medical Authority of AIDT, Dr. Steven Lore. He gives us this advice:

Like frogs on a lillypad

Just sittin around, waitin for a parade...

Criminally Awesome & Under Appreciated

Apparently we were too good for the local music scene. We were practicing for the parade in the parking lot of a church - minding our own business - when the cops came after us.

"Apparently some of your neighbors don't appreciate it." She said after asking if we had an amplified music permit. ('Wha?' was the unanimous response.) Being the upstanding, law abiding citizens we are, we quickly dispersed.

Perhaps they needed to read our mission statement. Annoying neighbors is clearly defined as a guiding principal in this band.

Sneak Preview

Perhaps you were able to participate in a sneak preview event last Thursday (July 16) when the band took a practice run through Danny's neighbor hood. It sounded pretty good, till the sound went out. We're workin' on that.

Handcart Days Grand Parade

We've got a gig playing in the Handcart Days Parade. We would love to see you on the street watching us, and always appreciate the friends and fans cheering us on.

The parade begins at Five Points in Bountiful on July 23rd at 6:00 pm (that's 18:00 for those of the military persuasion.)
