"The band is based in Boston, we all live near and around here; we travel as far north as Rockland in Maine, as far south as Miami and we've been as far west as House Of Blues in Cleveland. We couch surf, so we are a lean, mean, fighting machine; we can play somewhere and then stay with fans and friends and then move on to the next town and live in a van on pizza," laughed Conrad Warre of Bees Deluxe as h talked of their upcoming area gigs at The Lizzie Rose Music Room in Tuckerton, NJ, The Cutting Room in NYC and Jamey's House of Music in Lansdowne, PA.

"We're gonna be there on Saturday March 8, less than two weeks away," said Brian Templeton of Delta Generators as they prepare to come to Jamey's House of Music in Lansdowne, PA for an 8 p.m. March 8 show. "This is our first time there and we're very excited about it. I'm really happy we're going in there; I didn't even know about the place. Sallie Bengtson of Nola Blue Records hipped me to that because I had told her that I was looking for some places to play in her area and she suggested that place and luckily they were open. We hit at 8 p.m., I think they start serving food around 6 p.m."

"We're really excited," began Allie Colleen, "We spoke to some people last week who have seen a couple of shows at the winery who said they were really good shows and they were acoustic shows. So, I'm really interested to soundcheck the band because soundcheck is my favorite thing; it sounds so whimsical and maybe a little silly but it's like the first time you get to meet somebody. It's the first time you get to sing in a room and nobody is in there and your show is gonna be so different later hopefully; hopefully people show up and there are a lot of people in the room and it's gonna be a little different. There is something really cool about that for me. I had a little tiny stage in this sports barn that we had on my family's property and that's where I spent all of my time, alone on this little stage that was about an inch off of the ground but it was a stage, it wasn't floor level and I thought that was the coolest thing and I think something like that has made me fall in love with big empty rooms to sing in."
