The 10th Anniversary of 9/11 Ceremony in Park Ridge, N.J.


Andrea and I had the honor and privilege to be asked to perform at the 10th Anniversary of 9/11 Ceremony in Park Ridge, N.J.  It was a very special event and it has been reported as being one of the largest 9/11/11 ceremonies in the Pascack Valley with 100’s of folks in attendance.  It was great to see the community come out and pay their respects.   


There are 4 videos here of songs we played at the event. 
They are; Amazing Grace, The National Anthem, America the Beautiful and God Bless America.

The Fisher House program is a unique private-public partnership that supports America's military in their time of need. The program recognizes the special sacrifices of our men and women in uniform and the hardships of military service by meeting a humanitarian need beyond that normally provided by the Departments of Defense and Veterans Affairs.

Our percussion section.

In the beginning of our busiest summer gigging season ever, we had our latest drummer quit the band.  He left without notice, leaving us with a full playing schedule and no drums.  Well, like many things, this turned out to be a blessing in disguise.  At nearly every show we had people coming up and playing an assortment of percussion with us.  Drums, congas, bongos, tambourine, spoons, maracas and more and it's been a blast!!!  Some of the best times we've had playing.



Thank you Steve, Billy, Charlie and everyone else who have been jamming with us!!! Good times!

American Legion Post 153, Pig Roast, 6/25/11



The pig roast at the Legion was a lot of fun for us.  Lots of great food and drink and people enjoying our music.  After greatly enjoying the BBQ I remembered why I don't eat right before singing in a show.  Let's just say singing and eating don't go well together!...lol.

We were Presented by Cavalucci Construction and we want to thank them for their support.




 A bunch of folks from the Legion came up and played percussion with us.  Tambourine, Billy Back on spoons (seen above) and even hot dog tongs.  It was a blast and very funny! Live video to be posted soon from this gig. 


We'll be playing at Backstreet in Blauvelt this Sat. 7/9/11.  Come on out and enjoy the show with us!
