One of the best Holland tours yet!

Saturday, September 11, 2010

Hi everyone! I returned home last tuesday night from one of the best tours in Holland since touring with Tony Spinner back in 04 and 05!

Adding Leif de Leeuw, a talented 15 year old guitarist from Holland, really seemed to complete the line up which consists of Dick Stam, bass guitar and vocals, Han Neijenhuis on drums, Rory de Kievet on guitar and yours truely on guitar and vocals.

The DWB only had one rehearsal for the tour, but with the excitement of the two young guitarists Rory and Leif, everyone was energized and ready to jam. And yes, there were some great ones!

Rory and Leif showed taste, patience, and respect along with a professional attitude while playing with the band. Dick, Han and I, did the same in return. And why not, they deserved it as well as they played!

The DWB received good reviews while we were touring. The audience seemed to really enjoy three guitarists playing off each other while improvising. When it came time for one to solo, nothing was rehearsed. Only spur of the moment ideas were passed around, and if it flowed, we went with it! Now that's the way it should be done!

There's several clips on Utube music, under my name that was recorded during the Bluesmoose Radio Show, along with clips from other venues.
Would love to have you check them out and let me know what you think! We also should have a live CD out soon, which was recorded during our last show in Holland. I will post the info here and on www.sonnyhunt.com once it's completed.

Next year should be a busy one for the DWB. Some of the venues we played, would like for us to return next year, along with a festival now and then while promoting our new live CD!

Thanks to Dick, Han, Rory and Leif for making this tour a success! Also to DDA Agency for believeing in us! To Henni for her promotional work and support, your still the best band mom ever! To Tony Spinner, never would have made it to Holland without him! To all my Dutch friends who supports us with equipment, pictures, DVDs, CDs, websites and for attending our shows! You know who you are, so I just want to say, Dank U Wel!

Thanks for checking out my site, Sonny
