nice flyer huh?thank you msr.champenoise.... december 20/04 Well we had a great show at Greens Irish pub!!!!Thanks to all who came out,we appreciate all the support.Manhasset is a great town.Thanks to John and Gar and Tara at Greens!We are going to book another date for end of January,so keep your eyes peeled!!!! click to enlarge pix Well Hello www.fans!!!Just a short update,Its april and spring has finally come to Long Island and its about time!!!Its been a BRUTAL winter here and im glad its finally over!!!We have been slow to rehearsals for the past few months so we havent booked any shows.But things are coming around,slowly,and we have plans to play out very soon.The hardest thing is that the places that we can play are minimal because its hard to get people into original music,even though we know people are starved for something new...especially in our neighborhood!!!The biggest problem is that its costs us more to play than we can make so the gigs have to be selected few.We have to pay our musicians and for promotion,so ultimately we are in the hole as club and bar owners are more interested in selling booze than promoting talent so they ask us to play cover songs if we want to play in their establishments.So we bite the bullet,learn a few(15)covers and proceed to prostitute ourselves as jukeboxs.At least thats easy,as any monkey can learn other peoples music,kindergarten stuff...Its no wonder the music scenes in America suck so badly and piracy is so prevelent.We have this culture of youth who believe they should recieve their entertainment for free,obviously they dont have to work too hard for anything,or have had to sacrifice anything to strive to be great at anything.Its such an apathetic mentality.Yet we as artists perservere(?)At the very least we have peace of mind that we can actually accomplish things beyond the boring existence so prevalent in this society. (got a nasty reply from bar owner giving me shit...but he who charges 6 bucks for a 1 dollar beer and treats bands like shit doesnt get my time of day,we all know whos the greedy mofo.You get to make your bar your way,im gonna make my music my way!!!Im not a jukebox!!!) HAVE A GREAT SPRING!!!!! STRIVE FOR GREATNESS!!!!!
PLEASE DONT GO TO THE CIRCUS,IF YOU DO YOU SUPPORT CRUELTY TO ANIMALS AND THAT IS TRULY EVIL!!!!
