CD NEWS:
Now in the final stages of production is the new Mtndawg professional 2-CD Set, HANDMADE scheduled for release Summer 2008.
Thats right, the new Mtndawg compilation will be a 2 CD set! Side One will be all electric, with a 3 pc band including Drummer, Fast Freddie Dean. and Bass Guitarist Mark Eads. The 2nd CD will be ALL Solo Acoustic Mtndawg (Jodawg).
The title is appropriate, as Jodawg has his hands in the entire project. He is not only the sole composer/lyricist of every song on the compilation, but he is also the Publisher, and Co-Producer, and is self releasing this compilation on his own indie label (Mutt records). At Dirt Road Studios, he is helping the Recording Engineer, Mark, to record & mix, and is working side by side with the Mastering Engineer, Tim, at Prairie Sun Studios. Everything possible on this 2 CD set was done with or by Jodawg.
Fan Club and Street Team members, plus MySpace friends will be notified first with info where it will be available for purchase, along with future concert dates and which radio stations will be playing the new Mountaindawg CD.

Special Past Show Notes:
Mountaindawg performed in San Francisco at a big celebration for
Gumby's 50th Birthday at Studio Z.

You know, Gumby & Pokey, the child icons made of bendable clay?
Well, the 50th Birthday/Anniversary celebration was awesome!

Mountaindawg was invited to perform, and did a great job entertaining the crowd. Jodawg wrote a special song for Gumby, plus Mountaindawg played a full set of our original heartfelt Rock 'n' Roll. The band lineup for the Gumby show was: Jodawg, Mark Eads, Fast Freddie Dean, and Kelly Ann. Our Stage Crew for the show were professionals, Dave Silva (Exodus road Manager/Stage Manager)and Chris King. Thanks guys, for doing such a great job! You BOTH Rock!!

Other performers included SMASHMOUTH, members of The Tubes, members of The Alameda Allstars, and the band Remoter, plus several others, including Little Eric's Road Band
This bands performance was a really Special Treat for us because Jodawg was playing Lead Guitar, and was joined by legendary Bass Guitarist Dickie Peterson of "BLUE CHEER" who also played that night with Little Eric's Road Band!
Eric LeVin is the band leader (singer/songwriter/guitarist). He plays Guitar and sings memorable songs that make you feel like hiking in the woods, or swinging on an old fashioned porch swing. Derek Baum (our good buddy from the band Freak Show) played kickass Drums, and Holly Harmon played beautiful harmonica. Holly's stepdad, Arthur Clokey, created Gumby. Thank you to our friend, Holly, for getting us the gig.

SMASHMOUTH headlined to a well warmed up, totally excited, screaming audience. Comedian/Actor Keven Meany was the M.C. and there was a huge Gumby statue, in addition to someone in a Gumby costume cracking us all up. It was taped for a television special "to be aired at a later date" according to the Clokey family. We will keep you posted.

Mountaindawg and Crew were pretty much treated like Rock Stars. Staying all weekend in a 2 story suite at the Sheraton, dinners out together, and in room massages. It was a memorable weekend. 2 nights of fun, music and friends (AND Gumby). Cool!
