Joe Loesch and two other members of The Road Crew country-music group have scheduled a couple of gigs in Kansas and northeastern Oklahoma in October.
They will be at the Galena Car Show in Galena, Kan., from 7 to 8 p.m. Oct. 3, performing songs from the band’s CD, “Songs from the Mother Road.”
From 2 to 3 p.m. Oct. 4, the trio will perform at Afton Station in Afton, Okla.
Loesch explained the mini-tour in an e-mail:
We are primarily traveling the route for the joy of it. […] If any other ‘mom & pop’ along the way wants us to sing a few tunes, we’d be glad to. […] This year we invited Don King (he sings the lead vocals on the CD) to join us as he wants to experience the road as well. We’re covering 66 from the Chain of Rocks bridge to OK City. [The other Road Crew member tagging along is Woody Bomar.]
Here’s a video of the Road Crew performing “That Ol’ 66”:
