Gary’s daughter is a member of the Dante Club at St Mary’s College in Moraga, and they invited us to play their second annual Viva La Velocita vintage car show on May 3.

Our good friend Micah is turning 55 this year, and invited us to play her birthday bash on their newly remodeled back patio out in Castro Valley.

It’s our annual tradition back at Norms Place as the least Irish band ever to be playing on St. Patricks Day. Yes we play a couple U2 and Van Morrison songs, but that’s all we got! It was an especially fun celebration this year as all our wives and most of our kids were present, and so many of our friends and family came out to celebrate with us.

Such a fun night at the Fratellanza Social Club in Oakland, celebrating Christmas. In addition to our usual tunes, we learned a few Christmas songs for the occasion- Jingle Bell Rock, Blue Christmas and Rockin’ Around The Christmas Tree. So fun! Check out our video for Jingle Bell Rock below, plus a behind the scenes soundcheck of Long Train Running.

Just a random night in September- a perfect time to rock at Norms Place in Danville. It was our first time playing with our old pal Chuck on bass, and the first time with Xeno’s son Kai sitting in on sax for Modern Love, and Magic Carpet Ride. Good vibes all around!

Yep, it’s that time of year again to bust out the green shirts and head to Norms Place for St. Patricks Day!

Our good buddies from Chupacabra invited us to play a double header at Dan’s in Walnut Creek. Fun to share the stage and equipment with the Chupas- and a nice change of pace to just play a short one hour set. It was a hot end-of-summer night, and we rocked the block!

This was a special one at Norms. We’ve played many a St Patricks Day, and even a Cinco de Maio party at Norms, but never a July 4 party! Plus, Norms is celebrating their 20th anniversary, and it was an honor to be invited to help celebrate.

Another trip round the sun, and we’re back at Norms Place for St Patricks Day 2024! I thought we couldn’t beat the good vibes and crowd energy from last year, but it just keeps leveling up! So good to see all our friends and family there.

We were honored to be invited to play at Steven’s 60th birthday bash. The theme was 60’s shagadelic, and the costumes were on point – big collars, frills, and tie dye!
