It has been awhile and I want to keep you in the loop.  

We have been going through some growing pains and it is never easy to land on your feet.  That said, we are doing quite well.  

We have been playing some great private shows and we will be doing some more of these before we play publicly again on New Years Eve with a long anticipated return to Big Head's in Rochester, NH.  A number of factors have precipitated us slowing down our aggressive touring schedule.  I am busy with two kids, designing web pages, teaching guitar, recording other people, recording us and doing the stay-at-home-dad-thing (I am also toying with the idea of a kids album, for obvious reasons).  Seth has returned to school and needs to focus on learning something.  We think he is on the five year plan.  Erik is in Boston full time now and working for Bose.  Andy is down there as well, also working at Bose.  Finally, as many of you have asked, Tuck and the band have parted ways.  We are sorry to see him go, but he has other priorities and scheduling had become a problem.  No worries as we have been playing since the beginning of August without him to our full potential.  He will be missed for his smile, charm, jumping (that seems to be what audiences miss the most about him) and guitar playing.  We wish him well.  On a lighter note, we have been busy in the studio recording our next album.  We have 80 songs (80, really, no lie) that we are boiling down to 11 or 12.  This record promises to carry a different flavor than the last one.  I hope to but a few demos up soon for our biggest fans to download.  I'll send a special URL via this email list so that you can grab the song without it being totally public.  It will be cool for us to get some feedback BEFORE the record is made.  This way your thoughts can actually count for something.  I hope to make this happen by the end of the month.  

As always, please email us with your thoughts, comments or  criticism and I promise to answer every email.  Don't forget that our CD is available from iTunes and CD baby, as well as just about every other internet retailer of music.  If you already own it, pick one up for a friend.  This brought to you by our shameless commerce division.

Be well and do good work.
