The Wacky Adventures Of Josh And Chad: Downfall Concert At Smoke House Griddle!

 Well last night, Chad and I went out to Milroy to the Smoke House Griddle to watch the rock band known as Downfall.

This was going to be the first time that either Chad or myself have gotten to witness these guys playing. There are five members in the band with lead singer Jason Satta, Jeremiah Shafer on rhythm guitar, Dusty Sipes who was also on rhythm guitar, Beau Cabassa on bass and Zach Roll as the drummer.

The first time I heard of these guys was through my friendship with Dusty for I have know now for quite some time. When I saw that his band was playing at the Smoke House, I figure me and Chad would go out and see them play.

Plus, it isn't too often we go to Milroy, plus I can not even remember the last time I was ever at the Smoke House Griddle. We showed up a little bit early and got to meet and chat with the drummer of the band Zach Roll. Really good dude!

Then Dusty arrived and it was really good to catch up with him. For a while Dusty was there for me as a counselor for mental health and I hadn't seen him in a long time and I am very happy to see where he is at in his life.

I also got to meet Ed who used to shoot photos and Bill Corbin who coaches the Mifflin County all-star baseball team was also in the house.

As for the band, they were incredible, me and Chad really enjoyed listening to these guys. They covered some awesome songs like Are you going to be my girl by Jet, 867-5309/Jenny by Tommy Tutone, just to name a few.

Also I want to give a huge shout out to our waitress for that evening Carly, she was super sweet and a lot of fun to talk to as well as Bartender Tori. Thank you both for your incredible service. And thank you Smoke House Griddle for having us.

It really is fun to be able to go out and see these local bands perform. Just something about it brings me happiness. Hope to cover more of the local music scene.

If you guys want to hear some great music, you can see Downfall at their next show on April 26 over at the Burnham Eagles Club.

Until Next Time!

God Bless and Be Safe Everybody! 🙏🙏🙏

2009 Lewistown Panthers Baseball

Image
 Well, with me trying to become more positive about myself, I have been looking back into the past and find ways to let go of some of the negative emotions attached to it. One such issue was going back to my time at Lewistown Area High School which as mentioned before was a huge struggle for me.  But again, trying to be more positive, I wanted to look back at that time and remember some of the good moments during that period. One of which was playing for the Lewistown Panthers baseball team. Heading into my senior year of high school, I wasn't in the best state of mind. Honestly, I really did not want to be there anymore, I was just so sick of life, never thought I was going to be anything. All I ever was going to be was a huge disappointment. I can only give credit to God for being able to get through that year. But then baseball tryouts came along and I decided to go for it again. The previous years I've tried only to fail, which in fairness, wasn't much of a surprise bec...

The Wacky Adventures Of Joshua and Chad: McVeytown Eagles Championship Parade!

Image
Well tonight was a pretty special night down here in McVeytown as Chad and I along with many other people who live here in McVeytown all came together to celebrate a special accomplishment. And that was how all three of the McVeytown Eagles teams made it to the CKYFL championship games. Winning in both the Peewee and Midget divisions and placing second in the Mighty Mights. Stuff like this doesn't happen often in such a small town where I live so to see these kids have the time of their lives during the parade was certainly a sight to see. One of the things I love about covering sports is when I see kids learn, work hard and turn it into success. And these kids were learning a lot throughout the season and watching them grow and not only become better football players, but better people as well.  Which is why I have really enjoyed covering the CKYFL these last few years for Hometown Sports. People like Travis McCullough who is the President of the league along with Adam Weaver, Rob...

The 2005 Lewistown Panthers Football Team!

Image
 I recently completed reading my story for Hometown Sports Magazine about the 2005 Lewistown Panthers football team who finally ended a thirty years of losing seasons. In this blog, I wanted to talk about why I wanted to write about this team and how I feel the lessons that were learned about them throughout the year can still be used today.  One of the biggest reasons as to why I wanted to write about this team was because of how much of team these guys were both on and off the field. These guys have played the game of football together for a number of years and it clearly showed. Plus being a youngster, I really didn't know the history of Lewistown Panthers football. I only remember going to games because I remember my cousins playing on the team. But talking about the football team in general, to put it nicely, there wasn't a lot of success. In fact when I started this journey of writing this story, I discovered that Lewistown didn't have a winning season for thirty year...
