October 2007

Thurs. Oct. 11
Back to Northern California to WOW our favorite company, Intuit, from the Bay Area for their annual awards banquet. We missed them last year as they thought they'd "try a different band" and, boy, were they ever clamoring to have Atomic G back!! And we were so happy to accommodate! The dance floor packed out from the get go and stayed that way all nite long! We, of course, played all of their requests (three "American Pie" sing-a-longs!) and brought up lots of the uninhibited staff Supahstars for some guest singing and grooving. Honorary Band Manager Mary Dodd kept us well cared for and V.P. Caroline kept everyone on the dance floor, In To It-ing and Atomic Groove-ing to the very end!

Fri. Oct. 19
Another fun L'Auberge with the Atomic Trio, doing our classic piano bar thang with Carrie, Rob & Burt, doing it with fans old and new!

Sat. Oct. 20
An elegant wedding celebration at the US Grant in downtown San Diego, military-style, complete with the full military sword presentation of the Happy Couple. By request, we did lots of Stones and the dance floor stayed pack all nite long, with the kids going bonkers and the adults having just as good of a time, too!

Fri. Oct.26
This was the week of the devastating fires that brought San Diego county to a screeching halt. But AG & The Belly Up forged on with it's first day of being open for business since Monday of that week... it was a lite Happy Hour crowd but those of there all used the opportunity to Groove away our worries, if just for a couple of hours! We got a little festive with a Halloween-ish presentation with the Atomic Groove Fly Ghoulz, and a good Groove was had by all.

The last weekend of October had AG events but were rescheduled or canceled due to The Fires.
