Month: February 2013

After a day of shredding on the Wachusett Mountain, the boys headed to the Coppertop to rock it out for a few hours of après ski. As one appreciative lounger said after the gig, “You guys are the first band to get the volume right!” OK, we toned it down a little bit (no cab for Eamon) but it wasn’t exactly acoustic. Thanks also to the big Acton crowd that came out to support us! I do recall that there was even some dancing by the fireplace at one point! Perhaps an annual event?

This was the first gig that I’ve ever missed – yikes! (Sick kid.) So all of this is officially hearsay. Hearsay, I say! What I do know is that this was a fundraiser gig for Cycle for Survival (Memorial Soloan-Kettering Cancer Center) Team Wheelin’ 4 Healin’ Acton. The band rocked, funds were raised. Thanks to Kat, Sorrel, Kolby, Kate, Stacey, Jennine, Eve and Mira for hosting. And thanks to all for participating!
