Around this time of years it’s right and good to take stock of what we are thankful for.
In Mr. Blotto, we are grateful for our Bandmates and the Fans who allow us to do whatever it is that we do. We are also thankful for the people of a technical sort who have helped us to record our Music, to get it out, and to travel to cool places to perform it.

First and foremost, however, is the Crew…
…and it’s time they get their own Holiday!

We are designating the time between the Christmas Day Night Show at the Cubby Bear thru the Procrastinator’s Ball on January 4th at the Arcada Theater as Crew Appreciation Week. Yes, we know it’s more than a week, but in the Crew World, things always take longer than you’d thought they would take, so just let it go wouldya?
In celebration of or Crew and their Week, please feel free to say Hi to them at a Show and thank them for their efforts. As the saying goes “No Gear/No Show”, and nobody wants that.

The Crew is lead by Brandon Moore.

He lines up the Crew for each show, drives the Truck and generally herds cats professionally. If you didn’t know what he looked like Now You Know!

The second part of Crew Appreciation Week deals with our Soundman, Doug Blesius. As many of you know by now, Doug suffered a Stroke on July 3rd, 2018. He survived and is doing well in treatment, but has not been able to work since then. We set up a GoFundMe to help defray some of his expenses.

If you are able to make a donation, please do. It’s been helping a lot…

Remember, Crazed Recreational Entertainment Workers=C.R.E.W….

…and CREW Appreciation Week is 12/25/2018 through 1/4/2019!

Thanks!
