Fan Appreciation Party
Celebrating Kuf's 2009 return to the Drinks on the House fold, we hosted a small party (much smaller than the photo to the left might suggest). This was the first time the group actually lived up to its name by offering FREE DRINKS!

It was also the first time in years that Dave Jutras (drums, bass and vocals), David Harbaugh (guitar and vocals), John Davenport (guitar, bass and vocals), and Terry Kufner (guitar and vocals) shared the stage together. We also got some extra help from our friends Richard Leslie (mandolin, vocals) and Don Landry (drums). Unfortunately, we didn't get the chance to share any rehearsals together, but we did the best we could under the circumstances, and we had a good time, anyway.

In defense of any stray sour notes or other questionable performance bits, it seemed like a good idea at the time.

Song ratings & recommendations

• E = Everybody: Just because it's a family-friendly song doesn't mean it can't be funny, too. Recommended drinking: one juice box (spiked).
• T = Teen: Like teenagers, these songs may push the boundaries a little. Recommended drinking: 1 - 2 beers.
• M = Mature: Of course, "mature" really means a lot of potty humor that adults prefer to enjoy without children around. Recommended drinking: 3 or more beers.
• S = Serious: Unlike most DOTH songs, these are deliberately not funny. We hope you will forgive us for these rare, aberrant efforts. Recommended drinking: Until you feel maudlin.
