"We could do this anywhere in the
world. It just so happens that we're
here in Middle Georgia. Macon is our
stomping grounds," Blount noted.
On the day of the show, he wore a
shirt emblazoned with the word
MACTOWN, which is meaningful to
Blount. "Macon has shown me so
much love, and we're branching out.
It's not really Macon for us anymore
-- it's Middle Georgia, and next stop is
the world."
It's easy to see, onstage and
backstage, how The Tribe has
garnered so much love. When asked
about their greatest victory, Walker
doesn't cite the amount of tip money
earned, or the best costume, or the
biggest stage. Immediately, they have
another answer. "Creating spaces for
me and my friends," Walker stressed.
"The biggest win of all is working with
my sisters."
