Teri Silver: Liner Notes

TYGN performed at the American Legion hall in Newark, OH and it was a fun time for all. It's a nice place... a new venue for us... we hope to play there again. Nice folks, they sure seem to have a great time!

And that says it all. We were treated like rock stars... we had special parking, our own trailer and a stage crew to help set up and tear down and of course, run sound. Now... that's always great because it's a lot of heavy, physical work to set up for a show, with all the equipment that bands need to use. So we really appreciate the crew and all their help.

And... it was great. Our first show was tight, we sounded good and our audience seemed to be enjoying themselves. The Stage Manager (Glen) told me that it was a bigger than normal crowd for that time of the day.

I was a little worried about the second show because it can happen that, since there was almost 2 hours in between the two shows, things could get a little sluggish as the adrenaline levels fall. Not so. In fact, it was just as powerful or maybe even moreso, as Jeff thinks. People kept coming in, AND... we were asked to do two encores. Stage Manager Glen told me that it was the first time since he'd been working there that any band was asked for an encore...that is so cool! At some point we had to end our show so the next act could go on... but we wanted to keep on playing... I think the audience wanted us to do that too!

I've got some photos but it will take me a while to get these up, as I have to go through so many of them.

I'd like to thank the Ohio State Fair for the opportunity to play there.. I love the fair and for me personally... it was just a really cool gig. I'd also like to thank the other band members of ThankYouGoodNight:
Steve Allwein (Lead Guitar & Vocals,) Mike Fridley (Drums,) Tom Hammond (Bass & Vocals,) Jeff Jordan (Rhythm Guitar & Vocals,) and special guest Harry Tabler (Keyboards & Vocals, and who I hope will be playing with us again.)

Next up is a great show at the American Legion in Newark on August 23rd. It's a new venue for us and I'm really looking forward to it.

OK, so it's really late now so... ThankYouGoodNight!

ThankYouGoodNight will be at the Ohio State Fair on Thursday, August 7th at 5:00 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. on the Main Stage, next to but not in the Celeste Center. Oh, you already knew that, didja? We're really looking forward to it. Come see us, bring your digital cameras and be sure to send any pictures you take... we love them.

We're bringing the full six piece band to this one... welcome Harry! Harry Tabler will add his keys, vocals and flashing baby blues to TYGN for this special performance and we're really pleased to have him!

We had a miscommunication. The Old Bag of Nails in Delaware booked other bands for Saturdays July 12 and 26. We found out tonight
(halfway through setting up our gear). ThankYouGoodNight will not play on those dates.

Sorry for the confusion. We apologize if you made the trip to see us. If you did, we hope you stuck around to enjoy the restaurant and see the band that did play--Rusty Strings. We always urge folks to get out and support local music by seeing what's out there... we depend on you. For those of you who had planned to see ThankYouGoodNight tonight or on the 26th, well... there is our state fair show coming up on Thursday August 7. (5 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. on the Main Stage.)

We have a written contract for that one, lol.

TYGN is looking for fall dates, we'll let you know when we add to our
calendar.

Yes, TYGN did get to play last night... the rain came and went just in time for us to set up and get crankin'. It turned out to be beautiful evening and we all had a great time.

If you have any worries about whether the weather will stop us, please call ahead to the restaurant/bar and see what they know
(you may want to talk to a manager, who tends to know more of anything.) If I know in advance that a show has to be cancelled/postponed due to inclement weather, I will certainly post it on the home page of terisilver.com and the band's Myspace page, and probably send out an email. But when it's hit or miss, it's hit or miss and I may not find out until just before showtime. Thanks to everyone who came out last night... come see us again!

Yes, it may be a bit cold... bring a jacket... and it could even sprinkle a bit but ThankYouGoodNight featuring Teri and Jeff is slated to be on the patio of the Old Bag of Nails on Sandusky Street in Delaware, OH on Saturday, May 17 beginning at 7:00 p.m. Whether it rains depends on who you ask and when you ask it. Right now.. we're looking at a "slight chance of rain." Will that change? This is central Ohio, it's always possible. So... bring an umbrella and let's just have a good time! Good food, too.

That is the name of the music project that Jeff, Teri and Steve have going... two acoustic guitars, three voices and Teri's soft percussion. Hoping to get a few dates on our calendar. We've cut a demo of four songs; they are on the bottom of the the music page of terisilver.com, just look for the titles with Acoustic Therapy in the header.

ThankYouGoodNight has added 6 dates for the summer... all at a nice restaurant in Delaware called the Old Bag of Nails. We'll be out on the patio so let's hope it doesn't rain on at least these six dates! (May 17, 31, June 14, 28, July 12 and 26.) Bring the whole family, eat, drink, dance and have fun! Check the calendar for any changes.

TYGN played at Clancey's last night and we definitely rocked the house, or so we were told by many of the folks there. The dance floor was jammed pack and we all had a great time. I was hoping to get an April date, but it doesn't look like that's going to happen unless a previously committed group should cancel.

TYGN is looking to book some spring and summer dates at various venues. We have a few irons in the fire but nothing I wish to put up on the calendar at this moment. If you or anyone you know has an event coming up and want(s) to showcase a band with a varied song list and the ability to always add more... let me know.

Well, I've been sitting on this for awhile, now, waiting until I had the contract signed and sealed. ThankYouGoodNight will play on the Main Stage at the Ohio State Fair on Thursday, August 7th. We'll have two shows; one beginning at 5:00 p.m. and lasting until about 5:45 and the other beginning at 7:30 and lasting until 8:15 p.m. (or whenever we get off the stage!)

Please don't ask me for free tickets... I can't get any. In fact, they tell me that I'll have just enough to get my band in! But I really hope to see a lot of my friends there so now is the time to plan your summer around the state fair, which runs from July 30th through August 10th. Remember, TYGN hits the stage on Thursday, August 7th!

And yes, it's so cool. They only have a couple of bands from the Columbus area each year and it is very flattering that they asked me. And when they did, well you know I am over the moon because I really do have a long-time LUV AFFAIR going on with the state fair!

ThankYouGoodNight has added two new players as we head into the new year. Mike Fridley, or "Little Ringo" as he's known in some circles, is our new drummer. Yowza! TYGN welcomes Tom Hammond and his bass-playing talents to the fold. Tom and I actually met a couple of years ago at a jam session and were recently reunited by a mutual friend. Ain't the internet grand!

We look forward to a solid year in 2008. ThankYouGoodNight.

Another great time last night, as we rocked the house in dowtown Delaware.

Yeah, OK, Mea Culpa... Championship game here we come! The Buckeyes, I mean. Who'da thunk it? GO BUCKS!

We had a great time last night. Go Bucks! OK, so, it's not likely they'll be headed for a national championship but the ROSE BOWL is nothing to sneeze at! For all of you who missed ThankYouGoodNight last night because of a little too much early-day celebrating, we'll be on stage on Saturday, December 1st beginning at 9:30 p.m. at Clancey's Pub, 40 S. Sandusky street in downtown Delaware (OH.)
Hope to see you there!

Don't forget to join us on Sat5urday, November 17th and Saturday, December 1st at Clancey's Pub, 40 South Sandusky Street, in Delaware, Ohio. We'll hit the stage around 9:30 p.m.

TYGN will be performing on Saturday, November 17th and Saturday, December 1st, both at Clancey's in Delaware. More details are on the "where and when" are on the calendar page of this site.

TYGN played an outdoor party in Laurelville, OH tonight... far from civilization, kind of, and luckily for us, on a dry, starlit night. The "Pig Gig," as John the Bass Player calls it, was a hog roast party where a good time was had by all. Last week we still had those summer temperatures... what happened!!!! Brrrr.

We've rescheduled our cancelled date for Saturday, November 17th. It's the night of the OHIO STATE vs. Michigan game and while I don't know yet when game-time is, I do know we'll have a great time! Unless it gets bumped again... check back!

I want to say thank you to the folks who came out to see the band last night... we had fun and we hope you did too! Now that you all know how to find the place, we'll look at booking there again sometime.

Yes, barring any unforeseen cirumstances, like getting hit by a truck or something, Jeff and Teri will take the stage on Saturday, August 11th from 8 pm to 12 am at the Papa Joe's Pizza & Restaurant in Groveport, OH. Check out the calendar page link of this website for details on how to get there. Be sure to come hungry for great food, drinks and great entertainment! ThankYouGoodNight plays cover music of the '60s, '70s, '80s, '90s and Now. This is our first public performance together, although we're all experienced musicians. Here's to hoping for a minimal amount of glitches!
