The June 24th. 2005 date at Casaloma has been cancelled due to the club closing down.

On Thursday, December 16, 2004, we just did a video taping for a Melrose, MA local area cable broadcast, and it was a helluva good time. I don't know at this moment when they'll be broadcasting it, but for those who live in that area, be on the look out for it. I'm gonna be working on possibly getting a portion of this video to be uploaded to this site.

There are some new dates that have been updated on the Gig List, so check them out and I hope to see you at one of these shows.

There are some new pictues in the photo section that have been added, some from the October gig at Dodge Street Bar & Grille, and a photo courtesy of the New England Blues Society online forum, http://groups.yahoo.com/group/New_England_Blues_Society that was taken at Jerry Portnoy's 60th Birthday Bash at Sculler's Jazz Club in Boston, during the private party. Quite the bit of talent in that shot, including Jerry, Kim Wilson, Rick Estrin, Paul Lamb, Duke Robillard, J. Geils, David Maxwell, Teo Leyesmeyer, Mike Turk, Troy Gonyea, Cheryl Arena, Matt Woodburn, Rick Russell, Marty Ballou, Marty Richards, and oh yes, myself, and so many more!! What a blast!!!!
