HOLD MY BEER AND WATCH THIS ROUND VI

Bowen said he got the idea for the tour shortly after a party at Rogers’ home.  Both sat there in the early morning hours passing around a guitar and playing each other’s songs for just a handful of people.   The crowds have grown much larger since that night, usually with sold out performances, but the intimacy remains the same.

The other reason for the tour’s unplugged simplicity is to let fans hear how some of their biggest hits sounded when they were first strummed on nothing more than a six-string guitar.

“This is the original way we wrote these songs,” Bowen said.  “Most of the time with this tour, you get the story behind each of them and why it was written.”

Bowen and Rogers will be performing at Hat Tricks, Thursday July 5
