Dege Box

tweet tweet

i opened for a guy named brother dege last night and he had a wooden
stomp box he used while playing slide. inspired i grabbed a barrel
jack @ NOLL guitars here in cranston and a spare piezo pickup.
soldered it up and glued it to a slab of wood. expect some thump at
the next acoustic show, it sounds fun through my super reverb

never write off the advice to write it down.  i'm playing LUPOS HEARTBREAK HOTEL for the first time about 2-3 weeks after writing down "play lupos within the year" in a planning notebook.  i'm really excited, we're on a tribute night so playing a bunch of fun bluesy covers too.

things is good, record's being mixed, artwork's being done by Jesse Hayes www.hayesmusicdesign.com, website overhaul and shwag to follow!  it's an exciting time.  

lots of charity going on too.  couple weeks ago my trio was the backing band for a make a wish fundraiser in boston that raised enough $ to grant 2 wishes!  we're playing a lifecycle event to help local cancer treatment charities next month, as well as the annual Tomorrow Fund Stroll in garden city cranston.

also, starting to gig with some old friends in boston playing rock your face off cover music, stay tuned for playing with ingrid gerdes & andre lovelle some more, as well as in a new band with tim butterworth.  into the great wide open...

glad that while artistic progress is being made, getting to play for good causes too.  check all these organizations out, they mean a lot to me, and come rock with us @ LUPOS for the 1st time!!!
