Long time no post. It’s been a great (but busy) summer, with a variety of stuff to move forwards on. Still, to finish on a positive note, the summer brings you a great line up in a dingy basement – to get you ready for the darker nights of drinking back indoors, where you belong.

9pm LoveSkills
10pm StereoOff
11pm Band Antenna
Lit lounge is at 93 2nd Ave New York, 10003

See you there.
Oddly enough this is the song where we did a full on replacement of keyboard with viola (due to breaking keyboard by accident two days prior to gig). We hadn’t even rehearsed this version. But it all worked out ok.
Thanks Dean Keim for the video.
Great night on Friday at the Rock Shop.
There are some great quality pics over here though – http://www.flickr.com/photos/42302753@N05/sets/72157633416832974/with/8706473011/ – courtesy of one of Crazy Pills friends I believe….
Had an awesome time with DJ KGB, Auto Bonfire & Crazy Pills, a great bunch, who all sounded brilliant whether on stage or via the speakers. The Rock Shop was solid as always, and we were able to play the following set:
Mi6 / Bullet Time / The Thrill / That Friday / Supercooler / Wait Again / Something’s Happening / Effectual / Highlight Fadeout / Photographs
However, the biggest gamble for us was due to the keyboard breaking earlier in the week (it fell out of its case whilst being carried and got smashed on the concrete sidewalk, lost a couple keys, etc). So instead of borrowing a keyboard from someone else, or just playing a couple of songs with the viola, we (or should I say Bridget) decided to play the viola on all songs. Sounded great though!
See you in a few weeks at the Paper Box.
It’s been a little while, but we’ve been busy getting things together in time for our next show, which is on Friday, May 3rd at The Rock Shop in Brooklyn. Hope to see you there.
We will be on at 10, but its part of a great line up, so we will be there from 8 onwards. Before and after each band will be DJ KGB too, spinning some great tracks. It all starts at 8pm on a Friday, so what better way to start the weekend.

Thanks to everyone that came out last night to see us at Arlene’s Grocery. We gave away some t-shirts and stuck around for rock and roll karaoke afterwards, to hear what you had for us. Loads of people may have been out of town, but we still got a great turn out and a fun night. Also turns out the gig overall was one of the “5 Best Things in NYC to do that night” according to CBS New York at http://newyork.cbslocal.com/
Anyway, cheers to Eleanor and everyone at Arlene’s. A few videos were sent to us and we’ve put them on YouTube for now. One of them appears at the top of this post. As for the set list, it went like this:

Thanks to all those who came out on a damp Monday night to see us at Pianos. I know I would have struggled to be out on a Monday night like last night, with day job making me pay the price this morning, so we do appreciate the support. Anyway, more pictures and videos to come soon.

Been a busy couple weeks, but here’s another clip from the last show (Photographs). Not sure if the static is from putting an iPhone clip on a PC, but that’s another story.
More to come soon including a handful of new tracks and shows in NY and elsewhere in the coming months.
First review of the show is in – http://bk.knittingfactory.com/2012/08/27/hotel-mexico-and-stereo-off-at-brooklyns-knitting-factory-8242012/
Not too much detail, but a quick nod towards the stereo.
A hangover greeting to all. Thanks to everyone that came out to see our debut gig as Stereo Off, was a great turnout, cheers to Hotel Mexico, the Knitting Factory Brooklyn and the sound guy Rob for letting me set up recording equipment in the soundbooth. More videos, pics and tracks to come soon.
For now, here’s a picture of us being replaced on stage with statues.

Overall fun times, solid first gig. If it was Rickey Henderson, it would be a leadoff homerun with the new team. For those that have no idea who that is, he says things like this.
