Day 4 Back in STURGIS!!

Pictures...oh so many pictures of Sturgis!!


This cute little couple would walk down Main Street hand in hand until a group of men gathered around and pushed her little boyfriend to the side for photos. She looked very young and I heard one guy ask her how old she was. She said she was 18. Guess I'll believe her.






Here is the Loud American where the Hell's Angel was shot by the Iron Pig.


This couple was the couple about Sturgis. We saw them everywhere. There are a couple more pictures of her a post or two back in the Miller Lite Girl contest.

We were hanging out and having fun downtown and good thing that Dan was paying attention to the western sky because I know I wasn't. He suggested that we head back to Rapid City before it stormed. I'm so glad that we did because it turned wicked in Sturgis and a couple people were actually struck by lightening at Glencoe. Here are a couple photos of the storm that Dan captured while I was doing laundry.



In an earlier post I mentioned a story about me and the Kentucky Headhunters. When we first got to Rapid City we had noticed two huge buses and it turned out that they belonged to the Kentucky Headhunters and Black Stone Cherry. So I'm doing laundry and I hear the bus start up. I'm like...they are going to be leaving here soon. I'm walking down the street and I'm going to try to meet them. LOL I'm usually pretty shy but I'm telling you I was in total biker chick diva mode on this trip. Nothing was holding me back...LMAO! So I'm standing across the street and one of the guitar players walks toward the bus. I yell over at him that I enjoyed the show and he thanked me and got in the bus. I stand there for a few more minutes and out walks the lead singer. As he gets closer to the bus I yell over at him that I really enjoyed the show and he couldn't hear me so he walked right up to me and said...What did you say? I told him that I saw the show Monday night and thought it was great...He shock my hand and kept saying...Well thank you honey...thank you so much honey. Then he got in the bus and I walked back and got my laundry.

Ok...so that is it for tonight. Hope you are enjoying the photos and the little stories. I'm having fun telling them and reliving the memories of the trip. I seriously had so much fun!

Sweet Dreams...
IHG! :)

Day 3 Sturgis Continued...

After we had blazed around South Dakota a little we headed back into Sturgis. We figured we better get back into town early because Monday night was the night that Kiss played at Glencoe. Traffic was insane getting into town so being the smarties that we are we turned off on a side street and headed over to downtown. I was seriously excited because tonight was the night we were headed to the Broken Spoke to listen to and watch the Jasmine Cain Band! We walked around downtown a little because JCB didn't perform until 8 pm. Here are some more photos of the day.





We head on over to the Broken Spoke so that we could find a table up close.


Jasmine Cain and her band took the stage around 8 pm. Jasmine was wearing a bra, tiny panties, stockings, and a long black coat. She looked HOT! She's so tiny but her voice is a powerhouse. Her and her band rocked. If you make it to Sturgis next year you have to go and see this band. I wish she would have played more of her original songs because they are amazing but I understand that she has to keep the crowd entertained with cover songs too. Not everyone there knew who she was like obsessed fan IHG. LOL!



After the show was over there was a Miller Lite Girl contest. Thanks to Dan we have pictures of that event. LOL!




While the Miller Lite girl contest was going on I spent some time talking to Jasmine. I thanked her for doing the interview and told her how much I loved hearing her play. I didn't realize until later in the evening that Dan had bought me the new CD Locks and Keys and had it autographed. Too Cool! Next up that night were the Kentucky Headhunters. Remember the song "Feed Jake"? So we are hanging out waiting for them to set up the stage for the KHH show and I look over and OMG it's Sasha Mullins. Sasha has the blog Down the Road a Peace...she's been in a Discovery Channel Documentary about Women Riders...She is a singer/songwriter...and she wrote the book Biker Lady Living and Riding Free. She also has a new book coming out the middle of August. I head over right away to say hi. I remember saying to her...Hi Sasha I'm IowaHarleyGirl...I'm the chick that posts comments on your blog all the time. She totally knew who I was which was so awesome. She gave me a big hug and we talked for quite some time. She hadn't decided until the last minute to travel to Sturgis but Jasmine talked her into it, so they loaded up Tiger Lily...her Sporty...and headed to Sturgis from Tennessee. D-Day...I hope you get to meet her in Milwaukee! She totally rocks and is sooooooooo genuinely nice.


Finally about 10:30 or so the Kentucky Headhunters hit the stage. They were great...I have a story about them later that was kinda cool. :)



About 12:30 or so we decide that it was time to head back to Rapid City and hit the sack. It was probably good we were leaving because I think I was going to be going on my 5th beer...I'm not used to drinking like that...lol.

I need a writing break but keep checking back...there is more to come...
