===================================

On Thursday 9/15/11, CCSU performed for one of the most appreciative audiences we have ever had the honor of playing for: the Vets at the VA Hospital in Montrose NY. The band absolutely rocked with a 105 minute straight set. And afterwards must have been 20 or so Vets came up to the stage just to shake our hands and thank us. More correctly, we thanked them; not just for their support on this evening but for their service to our country. Wow. Heavy stuff...

===================================

CCSU thanks John Muller and our fellow passengers on the tallship AJ Meerwald

as we had a spectacular Summer Sunset Blues Sail Wednesday 7/6.
Great fun for a great cause...

Check these guys out... They love to play and “play nice” as well…always looking to musically say the right thing…always striving to tastefully say it…their diversified song list remains true to the music with a contemporary feel…entertaining, sensitive and dynamic…the band has performed as a unit or individually with some serious artists…people like Steve Guyger, Detroit Junior, Carl Weathersby, Paul DeLay, Willie “Big Eyes” Smith, Bob Margolin and many more!
