- So I think everyone is used to this by now. A news blast every couple of weeks should suffice. I blame the summer, alcoholism, Hank and general laziness. Since we last spoke we played at Don Hills and AOC and now we're staring at another AOC gig this Saturday with a bunch of kick ass bands. Let's take a dip in the good ol' BBS whiskey river.
First, we want to thank everyone who made it out to Don Hills and/or Ace Of Clubs on the 6th and 14th. We know it wasn't the greatest of turnouts for either but the dog days of August always was and still is a tough draw. It's like you people have lives and shit. Going to the beach and vacation and stuff. Seriously, in the future we ask that you try being a little more loser-ish. You know, like us! Thanks.
All is well in the song writing front as Hank continues to come over my place periodically for what seems to be more drinking than actual song writing. How we keep coming up with hits puzzles me. I guess the secret lies in the bottle. And it's one tasty secret. Anyway, be on the lookout as we start putting these tunes together. We'll keep you informed of their debuts. Perhaps if Dr. Marino can find some time out of his busy schedule of saving people's lives we can get these songs to you guys sooner than later. That's right. We're calling you out Ang.
Another reason for the lack of news blasts is because we are utilizing our Twitter page for updates. Truthfully we use it for comedic purposes which usually chronicles our nights out on the town. That includes shows too. So get your ass over there and follow us. C'mon son! Ed Lover is burying us on there. We need more followers dammit. http://twitter.com/BBSBand
Finally, we hope everyone is geared up for Saturday's gig. It's a big one. We got our buddy Jim Parkinson of Earthrise helping us out on bass as Angelo can't make it. We're opening up the night and we got four great bands (Charetta, Ghosts Of Eden, Borgo Pass and April's End) following us. Radio J is hosting. Tom Pino of GOE is celebrating his birthday. We're playing first so we'll be drinking. Heavily. This is going to be one wild night. Our tweets will be incomprehensible by 10pm I imagine. Seriously, let's get weird people. Like Stiles at the house party in Teen Wolf. See everyone Saturday.

- Sorry for the long delay. We all know that a lack of BBS news blasts means we are actually busy. Most people believe it means I've been hitting the sauce more and am slacking off my responsibilities. Honestly, it's a combination of both. Since we last spoke we have been mired in a busy permutation of shows, drinking, moving, drinking, booking gigs, working on new tunes, drinking, shopping studios, shopping producers and a hell of a lot of drinking. Let's jump into this vat of BBS fun.
First off we want to thank the large, energetic crowd that came out to Ace Of Clubs and showed their support. It was a great success. So much that we are back there on 8/14. It was great to play a club with that kind of gritty rock 'n' roll appeal again. It reminded us of the old Continental days. Let's keep the attendance strong at this place so we can make it a regular gig.
Next, we want to thank everyone who came and hung out with us on short notice at the Wicked Monk in Brooklyn. It was a fun acoustic set. We also want to thank the other bands who played with us and kicked ass, Ghosts Of Eden and Charetta. And of course thanks to Gotham Rocks for putting it together. Like the Ace Of Clubs it was such a success that we will be back there on 9/5, the Sunday of Labor Day weekend. With that Monday off we may just drink the Monk out of Bushmills this time around. Look out below.
Finally, we hope to see everyone at Don Hill's tomorrow. Again, this is a new venue so we are going to need a big, rowdy turnout. It's been a real long time since we played here. Perhaps ghosts of band members past will show up. Who knows. It's a great venue so we want to rock it as hard as we can. And we all know that's not possible without you guys. Bring out the troops for this one. Let's blow the roof off the joint. More news soon...
