Dear Anyone/Everyone,

I am very sorry for all the confusion. The main computer where the webmistress does all the editing is down and in need of repair. So for the time being, i.e. for the next 2 weeks or so, this will be the main page for news and updates.

I'm sorry that the new page fact/fiction/truth/desire has not gone up. But it will be the second the computer is repaired. I have been somewhat faithful to my promise and have new works ready to be posted.

My deep thanks to everyone who came out in the hellish weather on Saturday to see the Tribe's return to New York City. The band with the substitute bass player, Dante, stepped up to the plate and against the odds of mediocre stage gear, hit one out of the park. Honorary Tribe member Mike Kolber gave the performance a rave review. This is rare. Believe me. I firmly believe we were pushed over the top via the help of the newest member, Liz. All of her friends turned out and were amazingly supportive of a band that they really never saw before. Again, allow me to say that everybody on that stage was grateful for everybody in that audience.

Chris took a bunch of still photos that will be posted up here, and Josie was able to take some video snippets which I would also like to put up here. So stay tuned.

For the record, there was some rumor going around that we won some sort of round in some sort of competition or something like that, on Saturday night. I have no idea. Nobody approached me or told me anything. So maybe we will return there, and maybe we won't. However, we hope to return into the city the first weekend in August to do 2 hours of music at American Trash. This is still in the planning stages, so keep checking back for confirmation.

We are still looking for a bass player, though we still have to set up auditions for a few people.

Thanks for everything and stay in touch.

Peaces,
Mike

Our wonderful new cello player who has the unfortunate genetic predisposition to being prepared for a set of music with the Post-Modern Tribe. Chris Zadravec would state that this is three strikes against anybody in this tribe! Still, she did an amazing job for an even more amazing charity.

Really nice guy with some really cool songs who had the nads to perform a Ramones song (albeit it partly) acoustically.

Quasi-Update

2007-06-09T20:48:00.000-07:00

The band is really great. Everyone is in the pocket and the new songs are sounding better than I ever imagined.
So far there are five new songs written for the concept album. Two new songs that happen to fit may be dragged into the fold. This would bring the total to seven.
Maybe this is called progress.....
S
I hope Erica Martinucci can do the spoken word part. As of this writing she has said, "Ummmmmmmmm, maybe." There is someone else I want for the part but I have a feeling that the schedules we have are going to conflict, especially with what is going on in my life these days.

I'll keep you posted.....

My heartfelt thanks to everyone who came to the show tonight, especially those who sang along to "What I Need." Also, I'd like to say:

1) Mike and Colleen were absolutely amazing. I only wish you could have stayed for the whole show...

2) It was an amazing first show for Julia, the new cello player. We all felt good about it and the fans of the Tribe who have seen cello players come and go gave her a very huge thumbs up.

3) Thanks to Pete and Mark for helping out and keeping the bar raised incredibly high.

4) This weekend I will be spending as many hours as I can writing songs for the rock opera/concept album. After seeing how well Julia played, how much fun it was to play with Mark and Dave and Pete, I realize that I have been given a Ferrari to drive and hope that I do it justice.

That's it. I'm tired. Good night. Here are some photos taken by the naturally curly goddess Christine Kossol. Click on any of the photos to see the full view.
