Wow. I couldn't have asked for a better debut show for the Brendan Boogie Band. It turned out to be almost exactly the sloppy drunken blast I envisioned bringing to the stage when I first conceived this little musical brouhaha. We had some laughs, test drove the new tunes, I yelled at Nate, openly hit on The Rationales' guitarist's wife from the stage - overall, a good time was had by me.

I can't express my gratitude enough to the bunch of you who braved the gross weather and rabid Smackdown fans at the Garden to come down to the Bulfinch Yacht Club on a yucky Tuesday night. It really warms my normally bleak black heart that you lovelies made the trek down to see us.

For that shameful minority of you who missed it, there will be another show on January 16 which I'll be sure to shamelessly pimp in the weeks to come. The Brendan Boogie Band is up and rolling, bitches! Scamper who?
