So yeah…

So I haven’t posted in over a month, which is a bit lame. Anyway, life has been a bit hectic. Doing classes full-time (16 credits folks), gigging weekly, occasional trips out-of-town for gigs or recreation, and on top of all that Amber moved in for the summer. So yeah, it’s been overwhelming, but in a good way, especially that Amber is here (no surprise I like my girlfriend, right?)

As for my previous entry, still a work in progress, but the Chet album slowly edges forward. Boston Common continues to gig every Thursday at Paddy O’s down by Faneuil Hall. And to anyone who reads this, feel free to leave comments, that’s what they’re there for.

Boston Common @ Paddy O’s

So, I haven’t posted in a while, sorry about that; the daily grind has been getting in the way of my intarwebs. Anyway, just a heads-up to anyone who’s reading this in the Boston area, but the cover band I’m in, Boston Common (warning, page is NSFW due to audio that loads on start, so mute your speakers before clicking) is continuing its weekly engagement at Paddy O’s tomorrow evening, from 9pm to 1:30am. 21+, no cover, and we play killin’ dance tunes all night long! Hope to see some new folks there!

Gig-tastic

That’s right folks, this month is gig-tastic. Every Thursday (starting this Thursday) Boston Common is at Paddy O’s, with occasional gigs at The Tap. Chet has two gigs this month, both 18+, and Matt Germak Band has a gig at Sweetwater at the end of the month.

So come on out & enjoy some of my shows!

Gigs a plenty

I’m sure anyone who happens to be reading this has noticed that the upcoming.org panel in the sidebar continues to be full of gigs, which is, as always, a Good Thing™. Boston Common, being the working cover band, is the busiest of the three groups I’m in, but Chet has 3 shows coming up this month & in March, and the Matt Germak Band has a headlining gig at Harpers Ferry next Wednesday! So that’s very cool, as Harpers is one of the best gigs in town (alongside the Paradise Lounge, TT the Bear’s, and the Middle East Upstairs). Chet will be at the Revolution Rock Bar, which is this pretty hip new joint downtown, on Wed the 21st.

As for other things, just finished the second week of classes; gonna be one hell of a semester, but I’ll get it done. Ready to finish up Berklee, have my degree, and make a move on some things I’ve had in mind for a while. Putting together a working jazz band (probably piano/bass/drums, with a trumpeter & vocalist) is something I’ve wanted to do for a long while, and I’ve had some folks in mind for some time for it…

My Website

So, after having written a variety of websites for other people, I’ve gone and made my own, for my own self-promotion as a bassist & geeky internet user. I’ll try to keep this site updated with a list of shows I’ll be playing with the three groups I play bass for: Chet, Matt Germak Band, and Boston Common.
