| March Gigs: | ||
| Friday March 14th NORTH SIX/L TRAIN TO BEDFORD AVE./66 NORTH 6TH ST. (WYTHE & KENT)/WILLIAMSBURG, BROOKLYN 11211/(718) 599-5103 Last week, i was in London and played four shows on my own. it's much more fun w/the band (Chris Gefken - bass, Paul Moschella - drums, Jim Higgins - lead guitar, Ray Nissen - keyboards), but this show came up too fast to coordinate schedules... so i'm doing this one alone. doors open at 8pm, i'm on at 9pm. Chris Baron (from The Spin Doctors) goes on at 10pm, and Lach and The Secrets take over at 11pm. | ||
| Friday March 28th THE GOLDHAWK/(on the corner of 10th and Park) Hoboken, NJ/201-420-7989 full-tilt Cranks show starting at 8pm (support is TBA). The Goldhawk is a great place to see a show - nice room/good vibes/reasonably priced drinks. we'll be debuting some new tunes, and we might be videotaped...so wear nice clothes! | ||
| Saturday March 29th THE SIDEWALK/94 AVE. A @ 6th St./212-473-7373 good ol' Sidewalk...fun room and an audience that actually listens. the Cranks are scheduled for 11pm, and Lach runs a tight ship, so take this time slot as gospel..
| ||

| Friday, February 7th, 10pm... we’re at The Sidewalk (94 Ave. A @ 6th St., NYC/ 212-473-7373). Our first gig at this famous folk venue might seem like a mis-match...except it's the home of Lach's anti-folk crusade, and since we are anti-EVERYTHING, i'm sure we're right for the room. | ||
| Saturday, February 8th, 11pm... we’re at The Baggot Inn (82 W. 3rd St. btwn/Sullivan & Thompson, NYC) Our first show with Life In A Blender. Don Rauf is god. we are demi-gods with ambition. should be interesting! | ||
