The B.O.B. Next Weekend………

February 4th, 2010

Get ready Grand Rapids. It’s been awhile since we’ve been at the B.O.B. We’re ready to party Bottoms Up style in Grand Rapids. We always end up having a GREAT time when we play there and this time will be no exception. Come early to get a table because they’re gone quick. Looking forward to seeing you all there……..

Good Luck Guys!

Have a great 2010!

Have a great 2010!

Message from Dave to the BOTTOMS UP family,
Just wanted to write a little message to my BOTTOMS UP Brothers and Followers of the group. I just wanted to thank the guys in the band for understanding my decision. This was one of the most hardest decisions I’ve had to make in a very long time. Believe me, it’s something that I don’t want to do, but I truly believe that stepping away for the time being will give me the time that I need. However, please be aware that I will probably be going crazy not having this outlet in my life.
I’ve been in this band since its start in 2002  and have loved every minute of it. The guys in this group are more than just “band members” to me. I’ve grown up with these guys in my life and they really are friends. It’s no surprise that I’ve played with these same guys in past bands. It just works. It means more to me playing in a band of real friends and having a genuine good time rather than a band of members that you don’t really know and having to “pretend” or “putting on an act”. It’s much more fun not to put on an act and just have fun. This band has given me that ten fold and I thank you guys for that.
Now,,, to all of you who follow the band. Please continue to support these guys! The guys are bringing another close friend to the group during my absence. Mr Edward Baird is bringing his vocal & guitar talent to the band and will add to the band a lot. We’ve played in many past projects as well and will fit right in with BOTTOMS UP. Please keep up the support! Anyway, this is Dave signing off for now. Please take care.
Dave Heimburger

Happy 2010!

January 3rd, 2010

Hi All,

Well… we survived the weekend, did you?  New Year’s Eve was a riot!  Thank you Chef Eric for the kind words and all the staff and guests at Watermark Country Club.  We had a great time ringing the new year in with you all and we look forward to coming back soon!

Friday and Saturday took us up to Manistee… the weather was horrible, but the party was awesome!  We had another fantastic time up to Little River.  We can always guarantee that a great time will be had by all when we are there!  Thanks for sticking around everyone and hope you all made it home safely!  We will be back later this year… when the snow melts! : )  Pictures are up on Flickr!

We will see you on the lakeshore this weekend at Jacks… till then stay safe and happy new year!

Loves Ya!

Happy New Year… almost!

December 29th, 2009

Hi All,

Hope this finds you all recovered from your Christmas parties and ready to rock this weekend!  We are really looking forward to showing the Watermark what we can do!  Sounds like it’ll be packed… Alright!  And then Friday and Saturday up to Little River — it’ll be a fun-filled weekend… what a way to end 2009!  Glad we can spend it with all of you!  We’ll have 2010 dates up very soon.  On a side note to that…. we have some news for you for 2010.

After much deliberation and thought, Dave has decided to take a sabbatical in 2010.  We will miss him more than he knows, but understand and support his decision.  His last gig with us will be January 1st & 2nd up at Little River.  We wish him and Lori the best and look forward to his triumphant return in 2011.  With that being announced, never fear… Bottoms Up will continue to rock you!  We will be bringing on-board our good friend Ed Baird.  Many of you know may him from the music scene and but most recently you may recognize him from filling in for a few gigs while Pat was away this past Spring.  We thank Ed for joining our ranks and look forward to 2010 with great anticipation.  Thanks for all your support and friendship!

Loves Ya!

Merry Christmas!

Hi All,

Sorry it’s been a while since we’ve posted… 

Wishing all of you a very Merry Christmas and a wonderful New Year!  We’d like to announce that Steve & Dave’s younger brother Mike and his wife, Lucy had a bouncing baby boy on the 21st.  They have named him – very fittingly – Stone Hendrix.  Congrats Heimburger and Corder families! 

We are excited to see all of you at the Watermark on NYE!  Should be an awesome time.  Remember that we will be up to Little River on the 1st and 2nd.  Busy weekend – no doubt! 

We have dates for 2010 — will have those up soon.  Check back in a few days!

Till then… enjoy the holidays.

Loves ya!

Hi All,

Hope you all had an enjoyable Thanksgiving!  Only 24 more days till Christmas… YIKES! 

We had a GREAT time at Firekeepers in Battle Creek Friday night.  We some some familiar faces there… thanks for making the trip down.  We also surprised some folks that we hadn’t seen in a while… they had no idea were were there – had a great time fellas!  And… last but certainly not least… our NEW friends.  Thank you so much for all the kind words.  Chad, you are amazing – thanks for all your assistance!  We hope to be back down there in 2010… keep your eyes peeled.

We have a couple of weeks off… Steve and Lisa are celebrating their 25th wedding anniversary by going on a cruise.  Have fun guys, bring back warm weather!  We are back to the Double 6 the third weekend in December. 

By the way – you can call Watermark for information on New Years Eve.  They should have more info now.  Hope to see you there so we can ring in 2010 together.
