We Love The Night Life - We Gotta Boogie

We hope you had a splendid holiday celebration and rang in the start of the Twisted Tens decade in appropriately indulgent style!  Keep indulging yourself from 9:30-midnight Saturday, January 9 at The Carousel Lounge with WRS and The Night!

Start The Night with WRS

Isaac's pals The Night are playing The Carousel Lounge on Saturday night, and they've kindly asked The Squad to join them at 9:30PM.  It's been a while since we've played at our old haunt The Carousel Lounge, but I have faith that the circus decorations will still be surreal, the setups will be ready if you bring liquor, and the large pink elephant will still be my friend.

The Night have woven an impenetrable web of seclusion around themselves, so even Isaac doesn't know what to expect when they take the stage.  Will they unleash an explosion of rock obsidian to mock the demons of your darkest nightmares?  Will they gather you in their sweet pop arms and hold back the fangs till you see the sparkling of their sweet flesh? Do they have a giraffe on keyboards?

If you don't come to the show, you may never know! (And they may cast spells so we forget and can't tell you.)

Everybody Has a Hungry Heart

February may be the month for retailers to sell megatons of heart-themed merchandise, but all that just makes the boys in The Squad hungry. Hungry for more Rockin Tomato pizza, that is!

Not only will February 5th bring WRS back to our favorite pizza joint, it also heralds the first public performance ever of Isaac's other band You Might Think We're Sharks!  We've had a few hints of the pop deliciousness YMTWS is about to serve up, but this will be our first chance to take in all the goodness.  Watching Isaac play bass for a change is just the cherry on top!

See you Saturday,
Isaac, Bruce, and Reed

She Thinks She's Got It Going On

Here is a demo of a new song I wrote this weekend.  Enjoy!

 

Isaac Proposes to Darla via Chuck Berry!

In case you haven't heard, one of the founding fathers of Rock and Roll, Mr. Chuck Berry himself, asked Darla if she would marry Isaac from the stage last night.

Not surprisingly, given the executive classiness of the presentation, Darla accepted and is now wearing her hard rockin (and shiny rock-o-rific) engagement ring.  No word on twitter or facebook about any wedding dates yet, and we don't check normal news sources anyway.

The Squad is thrilled on behalf of both of these fine folks (one of whom is also part of the Squad, so it's probably dangerously recursive) and Bruce and Reed cannot wait to meet cool single ladies at various engagement parties, showers, and receptions.

Once again, congratulations Isaac and Darla!

I just love having videos posted again, so I thought I'd blog on our site to make it obvious.

From the Heartwood Guitar blog, here is a heartwarming video of a young guitar student playing Johnny Cash's "Folsom Prison Blues":
