Happy new years people!

2008 was the only nye show I was able to attend. I did a solo two night run(Ace of Clubs in NYC on the 30th and then Toad's.) Great times, met some cool folks, and got to see a great band do what they do best...melt faces.

Maybe 2013 will bring at least one Breakfast show. I can only hope.

Be safe and have fun everyone!

NYE at EC was a lot of fun. I remember raging the hell out of that OE at the end of the night with Jocelyn.  It was like 2:30 am at that point and there almost nobody left on the floor but we danced our drunk asses off with our last bit of energy that we had left. 

I have some foggy memories of red roof inn shenanigans after that too hehe

i was at that show... utica clubs ftw!!! left my knit hat from ireland i the cab on the way back to the red roof.  was thoroughly pissed when i figured it out the next morning.  but then i remembered what a great time i had.  and then proceeded to drive through a blizzard to get back to CT where there was not a spot of snow on the ground by the time i hit route 8.

Happy NYE 2014... Time flies, something something something. Be safe wherever your travels may take you this evening!!!

See ya later 2016 bump...

Time keeps on slippin?... Happy New year all! Be well & travel safe!!!
