Hey People.....
I am sure most of you have heard the song November Rain by Guns 'N Roses, Well September Rains just about sums up this month for meZmer.... We kicked off the month with Vicki's 50th Birthday Bash on Saturday the 6th with special guests "Self Titled" and the smell of rain in the air and sure enough about half way through their set the rain came in, and later when the rain refused to let up we decided to cancell the rest of the show and maybe reschedule at a later date also slated to jam and perform with meZmer that night were Donnell Belcher and Steve Miller So a special thanks goes out to these musicians also...... HAPPY BIRTHDAY! VICKI Now with Hurricane IKE making landfall this week and rain storms almost everyday The 2nd Annual Shrimp Festival went on as scheduled September 13th at the Gene & Cathy Largent Farm outside Vandalia, Missouri. The Stage was setup under a large pavillion with live music by Joyful Sound, Passing Bloom, Mynd Pleezers, Long Shot, and meZmer with the event running into the early morning hours. The all day festival started around 10:00am with the harvesting of the farm grown shrimp along with the pond side sale of the shrimp There were Craft Booths, Cajuan Cooking, Pony Rides, Kids Games, Washer & Horseshoes Tournament and an Archery Contest to name a few of the events. We are looking forward to going back to the 3rd Annual Shrimp Fest next year.... and maybe NO RAIN!! Now this brings us to last weeks show, Saturday September 20th in Kingdom City, Missouri at a new place: Panhead Billy's Smokehouse & Tavern on Old hwy 40 East with 2 Poker Runs going on around the midstate area, This was the place to be with some of the best BBQ around and plenty of refreshments everyone there had a great time right up to the end of the last set.... When It Started To RAIN AGAIN!! Saturday, September 27, 2008 - 11:26 AM

Hey People............ It was a record-setting year for the Audrain County Relay for Life. In figures released Saturday morning by Steve Hagan at closing ceremonies at the Mexico Middle School track, it was announced participants raised just over $140,000. That eclipses last years total of just over $132,000. Emcee Steve Hagan said it best, There's a reason those supporters in trying to help find a cure go all night long every year. cancer patients have periods of darkness and periods of light and they get tired just as participants do early in the morning. 
Once again meZmer was honored to be a part of the Audrain 2008 Relay For Life event this year. We would like to Thank the following: The Kevin Morris Band, The Rocking Chairs and Jim Graham who all provided music for the event. Pete Nasir, who provided the sound system and mixed the sound for all the bands and special events & ceremonies that took place on and around the main stage area. Steve Hagan, the Host and Emcee of the Relay who kept things moving in a orderly fashion, during the event; while stalling for time so meZmer could finish setting the drums and mikes. Kenny Wyss, our contact person and entertainment subcommittee member for the Relay For Life who was the first person to contact us about particpating in the Relay and keeping us posted on all schedule changes. and to the many other people We didn't meet who worked behind the scenes, at the booths & stands to help make this years Relay For Life Such A Success! A Very Special Thanks to all the Participants, Teams, Organizations and Groups that held individual fund raisers during the year to donate to the total goal. This year's top fundraising team was the East End Miracle Walkers from Vandalia. Sunday, June 22, 2008 - 3:28 PM
