Edgar's Pub, Manasquan, NJ 08/29/10

When we agreed to play a series of Sunday night shows during the summer at Edgar's we weren't really sure what to expect. Would anybody be there? Would people be too tired and hung over from the weekend and just sit back in their chairs? To our delight each of the Sunday shows were a success, with a great group of people coming out to party and have a good time. This show featured multiple audience requests including "Atlantic City," "4th of July, Asbury Park (Sandy)," "Racing in the Street," "Something in the Night," "Girls in Their Summer Clothes" and "Pink Cadillac." Another highlight of the evening was the rarely-performed "Hearts of Stone." "Growin' Up" featured yet another tale this time with "The Big Shank" working as a bouncer at a bar who is willing to let you in after closing if you allow him to either sing "More Than a Feeling" or play the Jungleland sax solo for you. We opted for the latter. Many thanks to our families, friends and fans for helping to make these Edgar's Sundays a success.

The Boathouse, Belmar, NJ 8/14/10

It was pure pandemonium in Belmar on Saturday night as a crazy, packed house of people were crammed into the Boathouse for a summer night of sweaty rock n' roll music. Dave's piano took a beating during the show with one bar patron deciding to use it as a table before spilling his drink all over it and shorting the thing out temporarily, while another highly-inebriated gentleman proceeded to fall backwards, trip over the monitor and fall into the piano and mic stand. Thankfully the instrument and Mr. Keyboard survived both incidents. Eventually security was called in to restore some order and to prevent any more potential disasters. Many thanks to our friends Tommy and James for imploring their crowd-control techniques. Other highlights of the evening included bar owner Tim Harmon singing lead on "The Rising" and a Justin Bieber lookalike being harassed by a Pauly D wannabe. It was definitely a most memorable night in Belmar that we're not soon to forget any time soon. Thanks to all who attended.
