So yeah…

Jeff — Thu, 21 Jun 2007 02:47:20 +0000

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.

New Chet!

Hey folks, just letting all of you know that Chet just finished cutting 3 new songs in the studio; they’re available to listen both at Chet’s website, www.chetband.com as well as on our Myspace page. Enjoy, and keep an eye out for a full album soon!

T T the Bear’s

Jeff — Mon, 19 Mar 2007 07:26:15 +0000

Taking the stage at TT’s this Wednesday with Chet. The Fens and Dann Russo & the Whiskey will be joining us, so come on out for a rockin’ good time! Doors at 8:30pm, 18+, and $7

Gig-tastic

Jeff — Thu, 01 Mar 2007 05:31:09 +0000

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!

Cool new band

Just want to let everyone know they need to check out The Ascetic Junkies as soon as possible; they’re a really fun bluegrass/folk group that just got started here in Boston, having played their first gig Wednesday night opening for Chet.

Chet @ the Paradise!

Jeff — Wed, 14 Feb 2007 19:52:29 +0000

Chet is going to be at the Paradise Lounge this Sunday, Feb 18, at 7pm, and the show is 18+! So come on out & party down with us!

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

Jeff — Tue, 09 Jan 2007 03:39:18 +0000

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.
