It's Been A While

Jeez, so much has happened since I've updated the site, and so much more will be happening.  One month ago today my wife and I moved to New Brunswick, NJ.  Here's what has been going on:

-I took a job at Russo Music in Asbury Park, NJ as a guitar tech.  I'm apprenticing under Scott Engel of The Holy Mess.

-On September 8th, I opened for The Horrible Crowes which is a side project of Brian Fallon (Gaslight Anthem) and his longtime friend Ian Perkins.  The show was at the Bowery Ballroom and sold out!  Here is a review of the show (with photos) from theaudioperv.com.  It was a total blast to play to a New York crowd of 600 people.

-Plow United reheasing has begun!  We are playing a festival this weekend called RIOT FEST EAST at Festival Pier in Philadelphia.  Joel and I have been going over songs and rearranging a few to perform on the radio as a duo.   Last Sunday we played live on Drexel University's station WKDU.  And this Thursday you can listen to our performance at WXPN on The Key.  Joel and I also got together with Mike Bardzik (Super Hi Five, The Boils) at his studio Noisy Little Critter, to run through out Riot Fest set list before Sean gets into town from Oregon. 

-Plow United is also releasing a DOUBLE VINYL and CD called SLEEPWALK : A RETROSPECTIVE on Paper + Plastick records out of Gainesville, FL.  It is a collection of songs from all three full length records plus singles and an unreleased instrumental track.  The limited edition CD will be available at Riot Fest.  The vinyl will be released in October.  And we are also working on another album for next fall!

-Plow United is playing New Years Eve at The Note in West Chester PA.  The line-up includes THE CRASH, JAKE & THE STIFFS (both of whom are reuniting for the show), TWO DAYS AGO I TURNED PUNK ROCK (Tom Martin) and DJ'ing by Arik Victor.  Tickets go on sale this Sunday at noon!

For my solo shows-I will be heading down to FEST 10 in Gainesville FL at the end of October.  I'll be touring down and back with PJ Bond.
