Rock on, Emmett!

From the Branson Tri Lakes News:

For their debut concert of 2023, The Nest featured [Arizona indy rock band] BOXEN with opener Emmett Franz on March 13.

“We were essentially sold out. We had a few people that didn’t show up to take their seats, which always happens. For the size of the venue, we thought it was great,” Tom said. “I think Emmett Franz just blew everybody away. I don’t think hardly anybody knew who Emmett Franz was, other than his fans that he brought which were plentiful. The pre-show was very well received.”

Andrea [Brett] added, it had been BOXEN’s idea to invite Franz to be a part of their concert, which she agreed worked out great.

Very Happy

Bluezark Mountain Melody

Darn. I wish I had the ability to come up with a melody or some chords or something for this.

Oh Oh, Oh No
I've got a bad case of the bluezarks

Oh No, Oh Woe
I have really caught the bluezarks

Thought I was OK
when my baby went away
way down in the Ozarks

But Oh Oh, Oh No
I've caught a bad case of the bluezarks

I've got to get gone
got to make a run
to get me out of the  Ozarks

It's Oh No, Oh Woe
I can really feel them bluezarks

Thought I'd heal up fast
but Im really downcast
way down in the Ozarks

Oh Oh, Oh No
I'm lost down here in the Bluezarks
