The Heartbeat goes on...

It has been a crazy season for all of us at Qwest Field and has been just as such for Blue Thunder.  We've done some amazing performances this year, with still more to go.  Thanks for all the support of the Hawks Fans who keep reminding us of the great gig we have too.  For those of you who didn't know...now you'll know.

Brief recap - Over the summer we made as many community parades as possible to spread the 12 Man fanaticism.  We also got a treat to perform for a second time with Queensryche at White River Amphitheatre.  The highlight of that show was performing backstage for the multiple bands and having drummers Scott Rockenfield (Queensryche), Morgan Rose (Sevendust) and Barry Kerch (Shinedown) sit in the jam with us.  Morgan even strapped on a drum and performed as a guest on stage for Queensryche's show on "Anarchy X".  We also played "Eyes of a Stranger/Anarchy Reprise" and a new tune for us, "The Needle Lies".  Many thanks to QR for another awesome experience.  Some of you may know that QR bassist Eddie Jackson is a season ticket holder! 

Further along the guest drummer front, we recently hosted 3 guest drummers and more!  Mike Musburger of the Posies joined us for the Packers game.  Yuri Ruley of MxPx and Byron McMackin of Pennywise both joined us for the Eagles game.  What rocked tough was that all of MxPx was at the game and came up to play our big bass drum, Rumble. 

This week you can see an interview with our Eagles game guests and me on either FSN All Access or the Mack Strong Insider.

We'll get photos and video up soon.  Keep checking here and our myspace site for all the goodies!

Stay tuned for when we play with the Seattle Symphony at Benaroya Hall to bring in the New Year! 

GO HAWKS!!!  -K
