Hey Tulsa! Hey Wheaton! Big Smith is coming to your town this weekend, and yes, we know, Hey is for Horses.

We’re playing a new venue in Tulsa on Friday, the Fly Trap Music Hall, and our good buddies in Charliehorse, with whom we are building a solid camaraderie, will be opening. Also joining us will be Tulsan Jesse Aycock. Take note! The Fly Trap Music Hall is an all ages venue. Then Saturday we return to Pat’s Bar and Grill in Wheaton, Missouri. Now, I know that Wheaton is a little bit off the beaten path, but we sure enjoyed ourselves last time, everyone was real nice, so we figure if our friends in nearby Neosho or Joplin have a Big Smith jones, you don’t have to travel to far to satisfy it. Here are all the details for the weekend:
