August 25, 2008: New York State Fair---Syracuse, NY:

It’s always great to play at the New York State Fair, and we honored to be part of the great line-up of bands they offer to the masses. This year, we were back in the International Building, as the venue we played in the past few years wasn’t at the fair this year. Bob ran sound today (nice job, by the way!) The crowds were monstrous, and FPB ripped through three different sets of tune. Quite a few FPB Fan Club Members were in attendance, and we were in a musical rage. We recognized the Veterans in the audience during each set, too. Special thanks to Jody and Teri for the hospitality today! We did 3 sets today, as follows:

|1st set |2nd set |3rd set |

|Here Is Fritz’s Polka Band / The Party’s |There’s A Party (including a special clap |Here Is Fritz’s Polka Band / FPB On Tap |

|Just Begun / I Want To Call You |along intro from the monstrous crowd) | |
