Mike Stanislawski (our banjo player) injured a finger on his right hand Saturday, July 21st. Mike is a carpenter by trade and these things happen. It just so happened that the band was the opening act at Albert Hall that night as well. Being the trooper that he is Mike came down. He said if he couldn't play the banjo he'd play the guitar or at least he'd be there for the rest of the band. We adjusted the set list to make sure we didn't do any songs that depended heavily on the banjo. In the end Mike played Mike E's six-string banjo with a flat pick, even getting a few of his trademark banjo licks in. We thank Mike for caring enough to want to be there and we thank the audience for their warm response. We also ask that you pray for Mike's speedy recovery.
