November has been a month and a half for us.
Supporting Bob Log III at Sneaky Pete's
Included in Les Frites Petites Vol 2 compilation album
Playing live on STV Riverside Show
and tomorrow finishing off the month with supporting Marcus Bonfanti at King Tuts, alongside Glasgow trio Manky Savage.
Yeah, easy to say we have had a good month....
When Bob Log III comes back to these fair shores (and believe he is a power horse and will 100% return) then if yo have never caught his live show, then it is simply a must. To see someone play guitar, dressed in a jump suit, wearing a flight helmet with a microphone attached to the front, but then imagine all that whilst crowd surfing in a rubber dinghy, only once witnessed that in the flesh then can you scratch that from your bucket list....check !!!
Local artists coming together to release a cracking compilation that can be downloaded FOR ABSOLUTELY 100% FREE (unless you feel compelled to donate then you can of course). We have talked about it in a previous post, but here is the link to stream for free, or download by only giving an email address for it to be sent the link to.

Yesterday, we were able to see the hard work and the number of people involved behind the scenes on the STV Riverside Show. We were made very welcome by all presenters, guests and workers alike, seems like a right tight family they have going on. If you were unable to catch the show, then for the next 5 days the whole show is availabel to stream on the STV player at the link below

To finish off the month we are back playing at the infamous King Tuts, where we get the chance to warm up the crowd for Marcus Bonfanti. Demand for tickets has been a little over whelming if we are honest. Selling out our initial allocation in about 2 weeks, and almost cleared the second allocation I think it will be safe to say we are going to make sure we have a good time with you all. A lot of people we will be meeting for the first time in the flesh which will be nice, and unfortunately as having friends as musicians always tends to happen that some are missing out by having their own gigs on the same night.
We have only a handful of cheap tickets left for tomorrow, and to secure yours then please send a direct email to john@dixiefried.co.uk by NOON FRIDAY and we will try our best to accommodate.
You might think that may be us finished for 2014, but I am afraid there is more to come, and the first being a Xmas Party we were only too pleased to accept an invitation to get the party jumping. The gig is on Saturday 13th December in Mid Calder, details right here

Tune back here on Monday 1st December, we have BIG news to tell the world, and this is the place to here about it first.
Thank you all for your continued support, knowing you guys are with us keeps us focused on what is coming next.
Keep it Dixie y'all
