This one in Huntington just came up because we couldn't do it here (Charleston). Marshall really didn't officially invite us like the other two universities. David Hardesty and WVU have made it clear that they want us to come there several times a year if we can. We like to travel and we like to go around West Virginia. We love to come to Huntington, and that auditorium is a great space.
blues buddy build energy intense noticed singing tough winning
We noticed that she had routing through the area, and we were just going to build a show with her, but with Buddy it is unbelievable. If you like the blues it is tough to beat...
