So I came off of Spring Break from school into a handful of acoustic shows. One was with our friends from UltraRadio.com in New Haven CT a couple of weeks back, and then 2 days later in Fairfield CT at Chef's Table. A good show of friends at both shows. Thanks a bunch for coming!
Finally got back into ROCK mode with the whole band this past Wednesday at Daniel Street in Milford. I like that place. My friend Arnie Cuozzo joined us on the drums for the night as Anthony was on a much needed vacation. Only two rehearsals and years of experience and it felt like home. Thanks a bunch Arnie! I think he'll most likely be joining us for future shows when Anthony can't make it. Plus, as a quote/unquote "solo" artist, I need to have a rolodex of musician's. My friend Tim told me that when I started this project a little over two years ago, and I wasn't too hip on that idea, but it seems to be necessary at this point. But I digress... Daniel Street was fun. Although not packed, I was happy with the turnout, especially for a Wednesday night. Thank you all for coming out and supporting original music! It's important because when these songs get popular, then all the cover bands will have new material to steal. I mean, who wants to hear "Sweet Caroline" for the billionth time? Oh wait... sorry... I forgot... this is Connecticut...
Which leads me to my next point and FANTASTIC news! The national staff of management at Borders has decided to carry the new record at their stores nationally! Not just online, but on the shelves! That means we'll be hitting the road for some Borders tours this summer. It ain't the mid-size club circuit, nor is it opening for a big band on good size tour, but it gets me out of Connecticut for a little while (please note, that when I'm knocking CT, it's only a small percentage of it, essentially those that would rather listen to "Wanted Dead or Alive" for the 999,999,999,999,999,999,999,999,999,999,999,999,999,999,999th time instead of taking a chance on something new). So yeah, I'm going to gas up the car at $4.00 a gallon this summer (thanks a bunch there Georgie!) and see a bit more of the country and play music. Who could ask for anything more?
Speaking of shows... If you would be so kind... Fliers are now available to print off of the website. Print 'em out, pass 'em out, hang 'em up, and help spread the word! I only ask that you please respect the laws in your community. Chances are that if you're reading this, then you are very cool and already knew that.
AND in show news... oh... I can't say yet... coming soon!
In the world of radio, the "A Taste Of Triple A" sampler is officially being distributed to over 224 radio, satellite, cable and online stations and syndicated shows. You can see the list by clicking here. If you see a radio station close to you, please take a second, give them a call, and request "Century." We'd be really, really happy.
And just because I'm feeling random, silly and under immense pressure to do something meaningful...
I think that's all for now. I'll have more at the end of the week after I pull all of my hair out 'cause it's gonna be CRAZY! Mwha-ha-ha-ha-ha!
