blog 7/17/2008Hi everyone!  7/17/2008 So……the questions are: when did you write that song? When did you record it? What is it about? Why did you re-record that one?..........so here it goes. Track by track!
6/25/2008 Well…….I guess all we can say is THANK YOU! We could have never imagined such an incredible turn out Sunday for our CD release party. To see hundreds upon hundreds of our fans, friends and family was quite a humbling experience us. We are very proud of the new CD and so far we have been getting rave reviews from all of you and the press as well!
Be good 6/6/2008 We are getting close my friends – this is going to be the event of the year! The Complaints CD release party Sunday June 22nd 6pm @ The Hi Hat in Providence. This is a FREE SHOW with plenty of FREE on site parking. We will be selling Complaints T shirts at the show & we will also have some free stuff for you! They will have dinner specials so get there early. We will only be playing one set at 6:30. We want to spend the rest of our time drinking with all of our friends and fans and of course autographing your fancy new Complaints CD! Put it on your calendars kids – we will be taking attendance! Be safe and be good…… Dean and the boys 5/17/2008 Please note that the Lighthouse show at Twin River has been moved to Thursday May 29th. 10pm - it's still free and should be awesome! 5/8/2008 Okay my friends here it is! The Complaints CD release party Sunday June 22nd 6pm @ The Hi Hat in Providence. This is a FREE SHOW with plenty of FREE on site parking. They will have dinner specials so get there early. We will only be playing one short set at 6:30. We want to spend the rest of our time drinking with all of our friends and fans and of course autographing your fancy new Complaints CD! Put it on your calendars kids – we will be taking attendance! Be safe and be good! Dean and the boys 4/14/2008 "Hello Kids! Don't forget - Every Wednesday night we are at The Escada Bar in North Providence. We start at 10pm - Free parking, great food and cheap drinks. Oh yeah the band is pretty good too! Never mind worrying about getting up for work on Thursdays - come and party with us! We’ll write you a note to excuse you for being late on Thursday morning!" See you Wednesday night! Dean and co. 3/18/2008 Hello kids, So the bass player says that my “frequent flyer” messages are predictable, self-serving and border on overbearing. What can I say – I’m a natural born promotion machine. Some one has to promote this damn band! So for this entry I will not focus on just trying to get you out to see a live show. Okay… sorry…… I can’t resist …… Every Wednesday night at the Escada Bar!! – This really is the coolest gig ever. Sorry about that. Oh yeah and don’t forget we are at Felt in Boston Friday night (3/21). Maybe Chris is right. Maybe I have a problem. All right, I’ll stop – but we really do need to step this thing up a notch – you know promotional wise – I’m not getting any younger. I just turned 26 again you know! Maybe what we need is a good scandal. Last I heard inappropriate behavior with a government official resulted in over 200,000 downloads. Hmmm… Which one of the guys should I convince to take one for the team? I’ll be back soon with some deep, interesting thoughts……. Dean and co. 2/7/2008 Hello friends. Let’s not talk about football anymore okay! Let’s start thinking about the Red Sox. Hopefully they won’t build me up all season just to rip my heart out like our friends in Foxboro. Anyway – great gigs coming up. Now don’t let me down Boston fans – you have been torturing me about not playing in bean town – we are playing @ Felt on Friday March 21st – we are going on early 9pm – don’t let me down! Get your asses out for some rock n’ roll. We
are also playing all of our favorite spots in the next few weeks;
Arlington VA, Raleigh and Charlotte NC, Barre and Burlington VT,
Portland ME and of course good old Providence. And yes Wednesday nights
are back and are completely out of control!!! See you at club near you! 1/21/2008 Hello kids! How about those Patriots! Wednesday nights are coming back starting February 6th. Spread the word we are kicking off the Wednesday nights by celebrating the one and only “Mayor Scotty B’s” birthday! This is going to be one crazy ass party! Looks like you will be using your first sick day at work on the following Thursday! There is going to be a lot of drinkin’, singin’, drinkin’, dancin’ and drinkin’. Make sure everybody gets there designated drivers lined up because this will be the party of the year! See you all very soon. Go pats!!!!!!!!!!!! 1/3/2008 Hello Boys and Girls I hope your holidays went well. Just so you know, after being contacted by many of your physicians, we will be taking Wednesday nights off in January. It seems most of your livers and other vital organs could use a little break from Soco and lime, Whiskey and Guinness! We will be back every Wednesday night starting in February. We also have lots of cool shows coming up including road trips to Vermont and North Carolina so check out the schedule page! Stay warm and Dean and the boys 12/12/2007 Hello boys & girls, GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO pats!!!!!!!!!! Happy Holidays 11/4/2007 How about those Red Sox! Pretty cool! We are emailing you from the road - VA and the Carolinas were very good to us as always! Looking forward to seeing you all soon Go Pats!!!!!!! 10/8/2007 Hello boys and Girls! Sorry it has been so long since I’ve said hello but we are busy recording and I do enjoy watching my Red Sox and Patriots kick ass! Sorry to all of you Yankee fans :( Better luck next year! If you are all superstitious like me, get your lucky hats, sweatshirts, coins etc. ready! AND MAKE SURE YOU SIT IN YOUR LUCKY CHAIR! So the only excuse any of you have for not watching every minute of a Red Sox playoff game is if you are at a bar with me! In which case we can watch the game together in between some mighty enjoyable music performed by me and my amigos! Go Sox!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Dean and co 9/10/2007 Hey Everybody Check this out. We have a couple of new venues this month that are very cool. They are places you have all been begging to see us at so you BETTER BE THERE! Did I say that nicely? :) Check out the September schedule page for more details. ….And yes Wednesday nights are still insane. Lots of excessive drinking that I refuse to be held responsible for. You are all adults and can make your own decisions. I will be happy to continue writing notes to your employers asking forgiveness for you being late every Thursday! Oh yeah – go download your FREE song on the home page of our site! See you soon @ a bar near you! 8/20/2007 Hello boys and girls. Summer is almost over! Be sure to check us out @ H2O in Newport this Friday 8/24 @ 9pm. This is a VERY cool place. We are also at the Harbourside in East Greenwich on Saturday 8/25 @ 9pm.
