Another year has come to an end. the time to wax nostalgic is here, and I hope that everyone's 2010 was a great one and that 2011 holds some interesting times and fun for us all! As we rapidly approach the beginning of our 15th year, I have to say it's been a good run! Thanks to all the past members for their time and effort, and I hope that your current projects are keeping you happy and enjoying what I consider to be the greatest job in the world. We all get to "work" on a stage in front of people, and get paid to be at a party. Who can complain! With that being said, we look at 2011 as another time of transition, and hope that our search for a new drummer finds a happy fit to the fun group of kids that we try to be. Special thanks to Kyle for filling the drum seat in the interim until we get a more permanent replacement. Auditions will start in the next couple weeks, so all drummers, this is an open call to have fun, make some coin, and have a weekend off here and there. All serious animals should contact me at my email address below, or my cell phone and we'll set up an audition!

With NYE upon us, we'll be rocking the Wobbly tonight and tomorrow, but the schedule has changed a bit. We will be playing après ski this afternoon in addition to the new years eve show tonight, so come early and watch us play some different stuff, and hammer through some tunes we haven't done in a while! While I thought tomorrow was going to be us as the recovery party, we will again be doing the après ski from 5 to 7:30pm, and then there will be a national act taking the stage at the Wobbly! I have heard too many rumors, so I can't say exactly what or who it will be. Redman, Method man, Bomb squad, not sure, but we'll be doing the après, and then hanging to see what's up after that! For those of you that were planning on the recovery party, please come and recover with us, and we'll all hang out together!

Next weekend has us returning to the Derryfield and our first gig back at the Matterhorn in Sunday River, so get ready!
