Wow - Candy Band played two shows at an all-kindergarten elementary school in Saline, Michigan today. We played one before lunch and one after lunch. Almond Joy forgot to bring the sound system power system (left it sitting on her family room floor - ddduuuhhhh!) so the custodian came up with one and became our soundman!!! Yeahhh - what a trooper he was!!! We didn't have the lunch in the picture - instead we went to a cool pub in Saline and had stuffed portabellas, salads, salmon burgers and cheese-beer soup!!! Yummy - and thanks Houghton Elementary!! We had a blast and your kids are really wonderful!! xoxo A.Joy

Wow - our gig at Northwood was wild and crazy - they never let us down at that school - I think punk rock kids are born and bred there!! Anyways, we debuted some songs that we are working and the "Monkey Song" is a hands-down hit!! Alot of people told me their kids were still singing it the next day!! I cannot wait to record that one - maybe we'll put this little baby on the cover of our new CD!!! xoxo A.Joy
