Hey gang!
Just wanted to touch base with the latest band developments and happenings....
First off, we are heading to a new venue on June 19th in Mt. Vernon NY called The Bayou. I've heard from a few people that this place has great food and a terrific stage area so we're really looking forward to it. Flyer with details is posted below. Hope to see you all there!
Also, we are currently prepping for our demo recording towards the end of June and hope to have this with some really good video footage recorded sometime in early July.
Since we are really just getting off the ground, we are then going to be shopping around to booking agencies / management companies and hope to then get more shows booked throughout the tri-state area so keep checking our website / facebook pages for up to the minute news and show schedules.
See you all on the 19th at the Bayou. We are the only band playing that night and are scheduled to start promptly at 11 pm!

I love Rush and being a professional accomplished drummer and vocalist, I know how difficult it is to sing Rush songs, mostly at the same time as playing an instrument. That said, why would anyone want to come see this band when the guy who is supposed to be singing like Geddy Lee does not posess once bit of singing ability. He has absolutely no pleasing quality in his voice at all. It's Bob Dylan singing Rush songs. He's been doing this for 10 years? I can't imagine how anyone could suffer through more than 5 minutes listening to this band even though the music is fairly faithfully performed. Please find a dedicated lead vocalist with a quality voice to be out front. A real singer would make the band listenable even if he does not sound like Geddy Lee. I suffered through a "Power Windows" show many years ago and tried my best to ignore the vocals as I enjoyed the drums, guitar, bass & keyboards. Stop embarrassing yourself and give Rush's music the respect it deserves by concentrating on the bass, stop singing, for everyone's sake and find a lead vocalist for the band.
