Hot August Night... Cool Treats!
Music and Ice Cream With so few public performances these days by basic, I thought it would be good to send out a reminder for the one coming up THIS SATURDAY in Palmyra, NY. We're singing at Chill & Grill, the local favorite ice cream spot! Ice Cream and live music from basic... can it get any better??? :-)

Actually, it does! For the third straight year, our friends from the band Sound Mind will be joining us for the evening, doing about an hour of their own music, splitting the time with us. So, it's a two for one!

Here are some more details on the upcoming basic events:



Saturday, Aug 11 - 7:00pm - Palmyra, NY
In what is becoming an annual event, we'll be setting up and singing for a couple hours again at Chill & Grill here in Palmyra! We'll even be joined by Sound Mind again, whom we met and shared the evening with two years ago at Chill & Grill - by mistake, but likely by divine appointment. :-)

If you've never been to Chill & Grill, it's a great little ice cream (& other stuff) joint, whose slogan is "That's a SMALL?" :-) That is certainly their claim to fame! :-) Definitely a fun place to hang out, and all the more with a night of music with basic and Sound Mind!
Time: 7:00-9:00pm
Directions: click here for directions
Contact: (315) 597-8946
Our next scheduled performance will be in October, when we will be singing at the East Palmyra Christian School Harvest Festival and Auction. (A very long name for an event...) :-) You can always find all of our scheduled (and past) events at our calendar page:

There are a few more events in the works, but for now that's what's ahead for basic!

6 x 10 Express Enclosed Cargo Traier - Very Good Condition!
Trailer For Sale
Alas, it is true. With our poor trailer reduced to a glorified shed for the past two and half years of down time... we have decided to sell it (so someone else can use it, since we aren't!) I listed it on CraigsList (but have had some technical difficulties with the listing... will link here in the online version of this once that is resolved!) and I might try eBay too... but I figured, why not see if any of you either need a trailer, or know someone who does?!

Here's the copy from the CraigsList ad:

We have recently reconditioned our 1999 Express 6' x 10' cargo trailer and it's now (almost) good as new! :-) We traveled the country for probably 3-4 years using this trailer to haul our musical equipment and other necessities from 2002-2005. We are no longer using it, but it has a LOT of use left in it!

We'd like to get $2500 for it, but we'll entertain offers.

Here's what you get:
  • 1999 6' x 10' Express Enclosed Cargo Trailer - very good condition
  • Recently replaced jack on front, repainted front & tires, removed vinyl lettering
  • Rewired trailer to full working condition, includes two internal lights with switches. ($100 job)
  • Side and Rear entry/doors.
  • Two wheel chocks
  • Full-size Spare Tire in great condition
  • Great little wheeled dolly for easy maneuvering when trailer is dropped.
  • Converter for connecting to vehicle
  • Capacity (I believe) is 3500lbs
This is a great deal... as you can see from the photos it may be used, but it's in great shape. The wheels rotate very nicely, so the bearings are in good shape as well I'd say.

Contact us if you have any questions. (315) 597-4149.
Thanks.

If you are interested, or know someone who might be, please pass along our info or this e-mail to them! Thanks for your help!

Home For Christmas (CDs)
When we were cleaning out the trailer, getting it ready to sell, I moved a LOT of boxes of Christmas CDs. By about the 10th box I was thinking, "Man, these need to be in people's hands... or at least in stores, or something! Not sitting here in our trailer, or attic, or wherever!" And so I thought I'd ask for your help with that.

We really think this is a great CD - perhaps our best project to date - and it's an easy sell, too! Who isn't looking for a great new Christmas CD? :-) Problem is, I'm not any good at "selling" our stuff. So, here it sits.

My plan is to call around to any book stores I can think of, and especially Christmas stores! I imagine there are some out there who will want to carry our Christmas CD. Results of my inquiry will vary greatly, I'm sure... but it can't hurt to try.

That's where you come in. You may not want to actually go and petition the store management, but if you do, that would be great! If not, just find out who I should talk to, or even just get us a store name and phone number, and we'll do the rest. :-)

Believe it or not, Christmas time is fast approaching! I think this will be great timing to check around and see who wants to stock God Came in their stores. It's a great, fun Christmas CD, and it carries with it the message of God loving us so much, that he came to be born as one of us, and to live with us, and to die for us - so that we might become Children of God.

Great stuff! So, if you're able to help, reply to this e-mail, or give us a call and let us know how you'd like to help us get these CDs out of our attic! :-)



Finally, as always, we thank you for your support of our music, our various other endeavors, and our family. It is very much appreciated. Thanks. :-)

Hope to see you SATURDAY NIGHT at Chill & Grill here in Palmyra, if you can make it. Otherwise, hope to see you out there somewhere else.
