| Blues, Brews & Barbeques Festival: 05/20/2006 |
| Tailshaker played The First Annual Blues Brews & Barbeques Festival on Saturday, May 20th at The 750 Grill in North Muskegon. Co-sponsored by Greek Tony's Pizza & The 750 Grill, with help from The West Michigan Blues Society, the festival featured nine of West Michigan's best blues acts. Our good friend Vincent Hayes put a lot of time, talent, and soul into organizing this festival. Thanks, Vince! Our hats are off to you. Here's to The Second Annual Blues Brews & Barbeques Festival. |

 |
| The man behind Blues, Brews & Barbeques shows us how it's done. |
|
While Donny Hugley and Dave "The Butcher" Alves keep Vince honest. You say "Power Trio," we say The Vincent Hayes Project. |
 |
|
 |
| Speaking of West Michigan's best blues acts, James Reeser blew a very hot set. |
|
Paul Hauschild on his portable B3 sits in with James. He's also a talented photographer. Thanks, Paul, for sticking around to take these pics. |
 |
|
 |
| It was a "special guest" night for Tailshaker. Stan's sister, Yvette, and their mother, Claudia, came out for the show. Smile for the camera, Yvette. And thanks for coming out! |
|
Speaking of special guests, all the way from Midland, Michigan, Brian and Marie Jones. Thanks for making the trip! |
 |
|
 |
| Now let's have a little fun! How about kicking it off with "Messin' with the Kid." |
|
Believe it or not folks, this is the point in the evening where urban band legends are born. Stan's head actually began to steam.... |
 |
|
 |
| ...while Catfish let everyone know who was in the house. |
|
Believe us, he brought his "A" game. Blow, Johnny, blow! |
 |
|
 |
| Can anyone kick it out like Chris Elmore on keys? |
|
This is the part where Chris hit that high C just perfectly. |
 |
|
 |
| Dave Taalman quieted everyone down with a blistering version of "Damn Right I've Got The Blues." |
|
Smokin' (and steamin') Stan Greene! |
 |
|
 |
| With the master himself, Tom Emerson, on bass. |
|
Michael Brown holds it down. |
 |
|
 |
| The Tailshaker rhythm section... |
|
...appreciating "the other side" of Stan Greene! |
