Well, we want to report that the
word on the street is true about The Rocking
Stone Irish Pub & Grill, that place ROCKS! This
place is really nice, the exterior graphics on the place are absolutely
incredible, there is nothing else like it in the entire Delaware Valley!
While the outside is all that, the inside is where it all happens!
Fine food, great food & drink specials, laid back atmosphere, live
bands and DJ, bartenders and wait staff who really know how important
it is to pay attention to their customers. Naked Social had the
honor of breaking the cherry on The Rocking Stone's
all new kick-ass in-house sound system. It was a little tight
going in but once we got things loosened up it felt real sweet and we
had a blast doing what we love to do, rocking hard for an
awesome bunch of people who really appreciate the raw energy of what
we do!
We want to thank George
for allowing us to bring our full frontal rock & roll assault to his
awesome place in Paulsboro, he has done a great job making The
Rocking Stone a premier place to be! Special Thanks to DJ
Pauly Rose for keeping the beat fresh and raw throughout the
night... thanks Paul! The girls, man oh man, they were
terrific, (and very hot!) Mariah, Karan, Jenna & Phyllis,
thanks to them and the entire dedicated and attentive staff at The
Rocking Stone for taking great care of us and
all of our friends who hung out with us on the 23rd, it was a great
time, we can't wait to be back there. A special shout out to
Bob M, we will be looking to get back in there real soon, hook a
brother up, we will be in touch! We also want to thank our special
guest, Special Ed - Eddie F for doing a great job sitting in on
bass with for a handful of tunes and for coordinating the evenings
festivities... thanks Ed! We also cannot forget each and every one who
was in that room hanging out with us, you guys are the real party, thank
you all for making our first night there a good one! We also
saw a good number of photos taken and unfortunately none were take by us,
so if anyone has some pics that they would like to pass on to us
we would love to post them. Thanks again to everyone
involved for a great time and a wonderful opportunity to help us continue
to mark our territory in the greater New Jersey area, we hope to see you
all again real soon.
Thanks for checking us
out,

Here we are,
another summer has come and gone... the leaves are falling,
and it's time to start partying hard! We have managed to
get a couple gigs behind us this season and there is more
in store! The band would like to express our
sincere thanks to everyone who hung out with us at Racks
and the Jug Handle Inn over the past couple of weeks. We
saw some friendly and welcomed faces... thanks Donna
& Bob, Dawn, Alison, LeAnn, Ceil & Randall,
Dr. Lou... it is always our pleasure to see you guys!
We also had the honor of celebrating Jillian's 21st B-Day
and Goldfish's big 4-0 at Racks... we were happy to be a
part of these memorable events. It would be great if someone
would see to it that Paul is properly lubricated with one
of his beloved Jaeger Bombs every once in a little while, too!
On the 23rd
of October, we will be busting our cherry on new room, The
Rocking Stone, AKA "The Stone", formerly called
"The Rolling Stone... the venue is in Paulsboro,
just off 295... anyone could find this spot, hell the
whole band might even be able to get there on time!
As soon as you get off I-295 - exit:18 - the
place is right there, you can't miss it... hope to see you
there!
In review of the
local establishments that we have brought our nakedness to,
Racks is definitely one of the areas newest, and coolest
places to be... if you have never been there, do yourself a
favor and check it out... we will be there very
again soon, they have bands every Friday and Saturday nights. The
Jug Handle Inn is an area legend and it has a
special charm all of its own. From the packed parking
lot, to the roosters and chickens running around outside, to
their award winning wings - as featured The Food Network - to
the really cool people the work there and the people who
patronize the place, The Jug is a South Jersey original... you
really should experience it for yourself. The band will
be back at the Jug again in March, but you may
be able to catch the Jukebox Killers there or some other
really great local bands... check it out sometime. We
will be adding future dates there as well, stay tuned for
more details. The Rocking Stone hosts a wide assortment of
bands on the weekends, and they do a Wednesday night open-mic too... word
on the street is that this place is hot, so please show your
support for Naked Social on the 23rd, and check out The
Rocking Stone with us. We will be back at Racks again on
November 7th, with additional dates to follow and finally
back in Mount Holly on November 28th at Dempster's. We
really miss the cool people from the Mt. Holly/Lumberton area,
as we really love to play for the guys and gals of our armed
forces that we normally see out and about in that area.
For a full listing of dates for Naked social as well as the
venues and your other favorite bands, log onto www.411.com.
We hope to see you soon!
Thanks for
your support!

Greetings ladies,
gentlemen, & everyone else! Naked Social extends
a warm summer welcome to all of our friends, families here and
beyond! It has been a very busy summer season for everyone,
but we did manage to all get together on the last Friday of
July in Cinnaminson at The Jug Handle Inn. The band
was so pleased to play for all of our great friends, old and new...
it was so nice to see DeeDee and Guy! A very big thank
you to all of our friends from Canon Financial, especially Donna
W & her crew, including her nephew Billy - thanks for your
service Billy, we salute you! That place was smoking
hot all night long, we can hardly wait to get back there.
We will keep you posted on any new developments on naked events,
you can also find our schedule listed on www.bar411.com so
check it out sometime! The band has been working on
adding new material as well as several side side projects, check
out the guy's individual MySpace sites for more details!
We have added some
shows at the all new Racks in Atco, and we will be there on
September 26th, and again on November 7th. All of us can
hardly wait to get in there in September, the place is
beautiful and we will have a special guest appearing with us that
night too - it's a surprise! We are all revving up our
engines to bring out best nakedness for this brand spanking
new room! Please come out and have a great night in this
awesome establishment with us! Racks gives all of the big
corporate joints out there one hell of a run for their
money while still maintaining a friendly level of service that
will have you coming back over and over again! You have to
check this place out, you will be glad that you did!
Thanks for surfing
in, enjoy the rest of your summer!

Naked Social would
like to thank everyone who came out to party with us at Jersey's
American Pub on Easter Eve! It was a great night and we
really appreciate all of the support that we had, thank you all!
The band also wants to extend an extra special thank you to
Patti Fitz for bringing her girls out for a fun night (Paul
really loved the suffocation by breast and the dueling breasts
activity). We also had the pleasure of having the beautiful and
charming young Miss Ashley in the house, it was so nice to perform
for you! We would have liked to see the girls stick around
for the third set, you all just missed Leah and Al, they make a
really cute couple, it was nice to see Leah with a smile on her
face!!!!! No other band can say that they had the one and
only original "Peaches" in the house, but Naked
Social did, thanks for being there.
We also can not thank
Jersey's American Pub enough for allowing us a chance to bring our
nakedness to their great establishment. They have done a
great job remodeling the place and are in the process of
completing a great deck which should be ready just in time for the
warm weather. When you are there do not miss out on their
own home made Jersey Jerky, that stuff is out of this world!
The band is continuing
it's efforts to add fresh new material to our set list as well as
attempting to add some new venues. It is not easy doing all
the behind the scenes stuff that is required to make it all
happen but we do it because we love it! We are looking
for suggestions on local places for a 1/2 decent band like ours to
play. We will play for absolutely no money at all,
that's right, we will play for free, there is one catch, we must
use our own gear and we must negotiate a fee for equipment
logistics, set-up and load out, fees vary, please contact the band
directly for details. We are looking forward the grand
opening of the new Rack's in Atco so keep checking back for
further details. We welcome any booking agents, professional
or otherwise to contact us, please email us and lets get the
ball rolling!
Until next
time!......Thanks for popping in!

Naked Social would
like to thank the family and friends of the late Jason Bradford
for allowing us the honor of participating in the first in a
series of special events in Jason's memory. We'd like to
offer a special acknowledge to Jason's beautiful mother for her
courage and ability keep her head through this tragedy. Although
the band members did not personally know Jason, we know he
was loved dearly and will be missed by many.
Racks Bar & Grill
hosted the event and they did a terrific job of it as well, hats
off to Alicia & Jay and the entire staff for making the
event a success. When a special dedication was made to Jason by
playing Third Eye Blind's "How's it Gonna Be", it
was a very somber moment. It was surely an emotional night
for many, it was obvious that tears were being held back, but
everyone still managed to have a good time.
To everyone that
participated in the event, again we thank you and wish you all
well. If the Jason Bradford Foundation is able to make a
difference in a single life then it is all worth it. May
Jason's memory live on forever in the hearts and minds of all who
knew and loved him. Keep strong and believe that good
things will happen when people come together and offer their
support.
Godspeed!

We got one word,
DEMPSTERS! We are sure that Naked Social has found a new home
in the Mt. Holly/Lumberton area. It's been a while since we
were regulars down the street, and we do miss playing for dear old
Dadz, but we could not ask for a better alternative, DEMPSTERS
is the place. The people that run the place are
absolutely awesome, the service is excellent, the food, OMG, this
place is not serving your just your typical bar food, the
culinary selections here are top notch, and the people that
fill the place up are outstanding! Thanks to Steve, Chris
and the entire staff at DEMPSTERS for taking care of us, you guys
friggin ROCK! We can not thank everyone that made it out
there on Saturday the 24th enough, THANK YOU for making the night a
huge success for us! Who knows perhaps one day you may find us
hanging out with Vinny and company once again, who says we can not
work both sides of the street...keep checking our schedule for any
developments!
We want to personally
thank the two birthday boys, Don and Steve and their lovely better
halves for seeking out Naked Social as their "first night out
in over two months" entertainment at Dempsters... thanks
Denise! We were delighted to be a part of your celebration and
look forward to seeing you all again sometime. Special shout
outs to Ceil & Randall, Alison and Leeann, Brian, Maureen S, "The
Punisher" & his posse, the CFS crew, starring Cathy D and
her one and only, the beautiful and always charming Leah (let
us know when you are ready to sit in on the guitar!..keep
smiling baby), Tina, Debbie, Tiffany, Donna & Bob ( and let's
not forget "the beautiful baby sister"), Abby and Jeremiah
(NOT the bullfrog!) and the rest of the crew, and the Hercules the
Sublime fan. We apologize for those we left out, I assure
you it is the dead brain cells that are to blame!
We also want to shout
out to Dawn Marie, she was missed and we hope she up
and running soon, and we want to let her know that Noel will
live on forever in her heart, cheer up sassy!
We will leave you
with this thought, "under our clothes we are all naked" ......

everyone there is absolutely great! We will be there again in a
couple weeks, it should be a great night. It is a very cool
place but it is going to be a really awesome place once the open the
brand new building in the spring. We wish Alicia and Jay all the
luck, they really know how to make a party atmosphere!

place to be, we hope to get in there again real soon. Frank,

Well they say nothing last
forever so here goes it..... Naked Social, now at he end of 4 years with
no line-up changes, is making a change on guitar. We want to thank
David Livingston for his contributions to the band over the years and we
wish him well in his future endeavors as he makes his exit from Naked
Social. Dave's dynamic stage presence, guitar and vocal ability
and his signature command of the microphone will be missed, good luck
Dave!
Please stay tuned to welcome
in a great new player that we plan to unmask soon. We will be
at The Broad Street Pub on May 9th and at Hot Shots in Westville on May
16th and at Dadz on the 30th. We guarantee that we will deliver the
same high energy full frontal rock and roll that was put together by the
founding members of the band, Tony D and Paul Liberatori. Paul,
Fran, Tony and Mike will introduce our choice over the next few days so
keep checking in!
Please note that we are
forced to cancel shows at Carollo's and The Flying W this month as a
result of the changes, we apologize for any inconvenience this may cause
to the venues.
04.11.08
Spring is finally here and
not a moment too soon! You can smell it in the air, mmmmmmmm!
Man you guys did it again, Poppa Joe and company at the Broad Street Pub
really know who to invite to a party! To EVERYONE at the BSP last
week, THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH!!! What a awesome, good looking, kind,
smart, witty, fun to be around crowd, these people know how
to party!, just check out the pics. We can hardly wait until May
9th to do it again!
Once the last week of April gets
here we we will be getting busy, lots of cool things on the horizon. We
missed our home stadium, Dadz last month but we will rock twice as hard on
the 25th. Don't worry, there will be plenty of juice left for
O'Malley's on the 26TH. We hope you can make it out to see us,
We can't say enough good things about Dadz, every day is a holiday at
Dadz! We will tale the stage at O'Malley's at 10
sharp on the 26th, it is a great place! nice stage and sound, a
real top notch place, I think we can call this an "A" room for
sure, hope to see you all there. Check out the "Tour Dates"

Love Always,
The Naked Ones.

What can we say other
then WOW... what a night at THE BROAD STREET PUB! It was an
awesome night, we were worried about playing too loud there for
Poppa Joe, but there he was bouncing his head to the beat! We
want to thank all of out friends for coming out, without whom it is
all pointless.
Special thanks to all
the peeps from Eastern Lift Gate for hanging out with us, it was
really nice to meet you all, oh and "yeeeeoooo Peggy, what's up
baby".... Thanks John and Shay as well as all
his friends who hung out with us despite the fear of a really quiet
night.... Donna and her beautiful baby sister (with Bob home
asleep) were there and we are glad you came, it's always our
pleasure to provide excellent service for you. We can't forget Keith
& company, you guys ROCK and we really appreciate you continued
support, and great job ordering those fat bottom girls to "get
on your bikes and ride"... when that mic was put in front of
you there was no hesitation, you knew just what to do! Thank
you to Mike Daly who visited us all the way from Delaware County Pa
and to Jeff & Kenny who topped Mike with a trip from up
state NY, we were happy to have you guys in the house, thanks
for being there, we know Dave was very happy to see you guys!
Then there were those Hennessy girls, these ladies know how to
party! Dawn our most sincere thanks to you for the great
St. Patty's Day swag, photos and the shots!!! The swag
was a big hit, everybody loved it, and Mrs. H, thanks for making
Dawn!!! There was Adam with his fist in the air jamming along
with us with a little crowd around him, way to go! And after
24 years of marriage Randall & Ceil still act like to kids in
love, congratulations on your anniversary, thanks for allowing us
to be part of your celebration! Thanks to everyone at the
Pub, staff and patrons, we will see you all again real soon.
On a bit of a down turn,
we had to cancel our March Final Friday at Dadz due to unavoidable
circumstance, we humbly apologize to Vinny and the entire Dadz
family for any inconvenience, we will be back on target for the
remainder of the year at Dadz. Please check in with us from
time to time for any new developments, new pic, and just plain old
silly shit that we all need.
By the way, if you ever
see this nasty, mean, ugly brown haired woman that looks remarkably
like the Indian on the old nickel, tell her that Paul misses
her and he is really sorry that the door hit her in that mug of
hers,....LOL...... hell you can't make everyone happy......
everybody be safe.
Thanks for checking in

Well
2008 is starting off with a bang. First the band would like to
thank Mr. Jerry Potrzuski for inviting us to join him in celebrating his
50th birthday. It was a great party and we want to thank "Photos

for providing a great environment for us, what a cool place!
We are excited to report that we have
added some great new rooms for us to play in, hopefully our friends will
find these new venues convenient places to get naked with us! We
are hitting O'Malley's on 130 in Gloucester on Saturday, 2-2-08, this an
awesome room with really cool people, and great food and drink specials,
and now Naked Social can be added to the list of local talent you can
find there. Then the following Friday, 2-8-08 we will be at
Palmyra's coolest places, The Broad Street Pub on W.Broad street right
in the center of town. And last but not least, finally, our long

As our wait for '08 gets
shorter, sweeter and to the point, we wanted to thank all of our
friends and families for making .'07 a fun filled fantastic Naked year. We
had lots of fun all through the year with our dedicated and loyal
friends as well as the many new friends we have made, it was our pleasure to serve
you all and will look forward to a great '08.
We have been privileged to
celebrate so many spectacular people's birthdays over the year, most
recently, the last Friday of the year on '07 at Dadz. Wishing a very
warm (and wet) happy birthday to the lovely Lee Ann and our dear friend
Marlene,.. Marlene was MIA we still celebrated for you
baby...Naked Social loves Marlene! One of our beautiful First
Naked Ladies, Dawn Marie along with the magic of Naked Social have managed
to bring our friends Michelle & Ron together, and it looks
permanent, he bought her a ring!!! Congratulations, we wish you all
the best in your naked lives together.
While 2007 was a wonderful and
memorable year for many special reasons, there were some very sad
moments as well, most notable was the sudden loss of one of our
most seemingly carefree and happy friends, Tew we will always love you and
your memory will live on forever in our minds and in our hearts. Naked
Social and Wooby and The Allstarz bands are honored to have been able
to bring pleasure and happiness to Tew every time she attended one of our
shows, which was often, I personally never knew she was ill and the fact is
most people did not because Tew lived her life without burdening others with
her problems, may God bless Tew and her family, I'm sure she is dancing in
heaven right this very minute!.....Now she just may be the only spirit on
the dance floor but WTF that never stopped her when she as here in
earth...Rock on Tew!. South Jersey and Naked Social lost one of the
area's coolest places to party, Big Ed's, Burlington NJ. We want to
thank Tina & Joe for all their support and for many of great nights at
Big Eds. Sometimes out with the old in with the new is not always a
good thing, we really miss you guys and we miss Big Ed's And last but
not least, we can never forget all the brave men and woman that we have
lost in our armed forces and in our police and fire departments.
We have had many really cool military people hanging out with us over the
years, we just hope that we will see them ALL again!
While "07 was not
without sorry there was a hell of a lot of fun, so buckle up and enjoy the
journey of "08 which is about to start soon. Wishing
all of our friends and family members a Safe, Happy & Healthy New
Year! A final note, Friday, 12/28/07, while the Steven's Randall
& Ceil prepared to head out for a Friday night of music, food an drink,
their beautiful daughter Sherry was kinda on the fence about going out with
mom and dad (which is so fucking cool, IE: Allison & Lee Ann).
Sherry was not sure where mom and dad had planned to go but when she found
out that the nights festivities we to be held at Dadz with Naked Social she
was in! Now that is cool, thanks Sherry!!!!!!
12.04.07
This was a November to
remember! Thanks to everyone for your support at Ott's, Dadz and
Jakes Escape over the past month! Another year is near the end, so
we are all busy working to add some fresh new material and looking at some
great new places to play. We want to thank the First Naked
Ladies for making another special appearance, that would be Terry
& Jo.. and an honorary mention to Dawn Marie, thanks for your support
and for taking some great pictures over the past year for us...and for
being a friend, a very special friend.
We had a very special
appearance from our great friend Bonnie and her main fireman
Mike!....Thanks for showing up, it was very nice to see you two
again. We can not thank Mr. & Mrs. Stevens enough for your
continued support, and we are glad that Vinny at Dadz saw
to it that you were taken care of. And out of nowhere there he
was, Adam was in the house - thanks for putting your face in the place..
We also want to thank Tina and Joe former owner/operators of Big Ed;s in
Burlington for showing up at Dadz... it was great to see them, we miss Big
Ed's but it was awesome to see you guys! A quick shout out to
the blonde girls that followed us from Jake's over to Dadz, sorry we only
had one shirt left, get us next time... Finally, a long overdue shout
out to one of Stanley Clarke's personal friends and ours too, the
man, Dr. Lou. Thanks for being you and for doing what you
do in the daytime, helping guide today's youth is a noble and
respected task, keep it real!
Wishing everyone a safe, happy
and free holiday season this year and many happy new years to come.
Thanks for surfing in..... Hope to see you all soon.
The Naked Ones!
You know you've arrived when
they name a drink after you...
Next time you're at Dadz, be
sure to ask for the "Naked Social" - a concoction with aphrodisiac
properties consisting of Peach Schnapps, Razzmatazz, and Sprite...
volatile if not mixed with precision by a professional, known to cause loss
of undergarments, as well as short term memory... please exercise
extreme caution!

Because of how
much we love and highly regard our close friends Randall and Ceil, mere words
don't describe the warmth and honor we felt as they celebrated their daughter
Sherry's 21st birthday this past Friday night with us... judging from
the pictures,
she looks like she had a good time! Happy Birthday, Sherry! Now
you can drive your nutty parents home!
As always, love and XOXOX's to all our grrrlz - Alison, Lee Ann, Dawn,
Michelle, Mar, Michelle, and Jamie...

us... special thanks to Kim H for the refrigerator!!
Next up - Jake's
Escape... Ott's... Big Ed's...
Thanks to Kimmie
and Dawn for the pics taken at Big Ed's Barbeque on 4/14 - We finally got them
posted... seems as though we've run out of web space and now we have to
archive all the old shit - which is fine with me, 'cause I was looking like a
concentration camp reject back in those days before I went under the knife at
Cooper... damn!
New dates have
been added - with new rooms - like the Flying W, and Jake's Escape...
check it out HERE.
Many thanks to all
of you who made it to our St. Patrick's Day blowout at Big Ed's Barbeque, and
made it such a huge night... we hope you enjoy your shirts!! - pics
are posted HERE.
With great sadness
we mourn the loss of our dear friend Tew, who passed away March 7th, after a
long battle against cancer. With her long, silky dark hair, she was a
frequent fixture at Naked Social shows, as well as for other bands...
she will be truly missed.
Pics from
Dadz Saturday 3/02 are posted HERE...

thanks to all of you for hangin' out and rockin' with us!!!
...and to
Gary Lee of "Designs By Gary" for the awesome artwork on the
stickies and shirts.
Finally
after years of waiting, Naked Social screen printed shirts and stickers

way... ask a band member about getting yours! Click HERE

Bar.

Hey
all! We're back at Big Ed's Barbeque in Burlington this Saturday

Year's Eve Bash at
Ott's in Edgewater - special shout out to Dean Herbert for the photos
and outstanding lighting.
Seasons
Greetings, Dear Friends!
As we wrap
up our final stops on our ChrismaHannukKwanza 2006 Tour, we wanted to
express our deep appreciation to all our family and friends who've
supported us over the past two years - and wish you all many joys and
much prosperity in the coming year... We hope to see you during
our final two dates of 2006 - Friday December 29th at Dadz, and our New
Year's Eve blowout at
Ott's in Edgewater...
On a somber
note, I have to announce the passing of my dad, Dr. Aurelius Domanchich,
who left us the day after Christmas... He lived a long and
colorful life, touching the lives of countless individuals and families as a
physician, but most importantly - giving me the love and guidance I
needed, and truly unique experiences I can brag about forever...
ask me about them next time you see me, if I can tell you without
uncontrollably sobbing.
Thank you
all,
Tony D
Happy Halloween
kids! Remember - candy is dandy, but liquor is quicker!
The band is getting
very busy these days... besides working on new material, we've added new
rooms to our family of venues that are quickly filling our schedule - Ott's,
Slates, and Big Ed's... Check the schedule - we hope to see you very soon!
09.12.06
We're
extremely pleased to announce two big news items...
First, that
Dadz has sorted out their insurance difficulties and is once again
hosting live bands, so we're very happy they've once again selected us
to provide rock 'n' roll entertainment every last Friday of the
month... you'll see us again there this coming Friday, September
29th.
Second,
we've recorded demo cuts of some songs for your listening pleasure which
can be found on our MEDIA
page... these recordings will be on our promo package...
crank up your speakers, and RRAAWWWKK OUT, BABY!!!
See you on
the 29th!
Maybe an
explanation is warranted?... Dadz Bar & Grill will no longer
be hosting live bands due to "liability issues" that are
apparently a figment of imagination of some over-zealous lawyers and
actuaries... gotta love 'em. Okay sure - the floor is indeed
a little slippery after Paul croons for the girls, Tony's Gene Simmons
serpent head boots do have a few sharp edges, and Dave's sword
swallowing (not the ones in the parking lot) may in fact be a little
dangerous - but we mean well, and have never harmed a soul or animal
during our act... Perhaps at some juncture, we'll be back at Dadz
again - so, check back!
Meantime,
the band is gonna take a little break for August - Tony's gonna take the
family to California, Paul's going to continue swatting greenheads and
working on his Brigantine tan, Fran's going to continue juggling his
difficult and testicle taxing six-girlfriend schedule, Mike's going to
work on honing his naked jacuzzi lounging skills, and Dave's going to
read a book titled, "Concise Phone Etiquette For Dummies"...
We love you,
have a great August, and we'll see you on the other side!
Big thanks
and love to all our friends and lovers who made it out to Carollo Bar
& Restaurant for a memorable night - our gRRRRls Bonnie and Pattie,
the lovely Josie - sexy as ever... sultry sweet Alex and her man
Kevin, who's got us playing his July 4th Bash - our baby Heather,
the Murrow Boys and their redheaded sluts... Sue Wonderwoman and her
eye-candy friends... and emo-dancing girl... thanks all!
We have a
busy end of June coming up, and we hope to see you all at Mc Donnell's,
Rmac's, or Dadz... as noted above, we've been slotted to perform
at Kevin K's Superhuge July 4th Celebration happening in Absecon, NJ on
July 3rd... details to come - stay tuned.
On a more
somber note, we'd like to acknowledge the passing of, and luminous life
of the dear and lovely Bernice J. Potrzuski, who left us this past
Tuesday, May 30th... Bernie was an extraordinary woman who gave
absolutely everything to her beloved family, and who also gave us the
most shredding, studmuffin-ish lead guitarist a band could ever hope
for... Bernice - you were dearly loved, and will be missed.
Thanks to
all who braved a chilly rain and even chillier nic-fits to catch our
show at the Cherrywood Lounge this past Saturday... It was awesome
to see the whole Suffering Wives Club as well... also our homies
from Mick Guinea and the Krauts... and thanks to Marty for overpaying
us...
In other
news, we were wondering if there were any lawyers out there who could
hook us up with some sage legal advice, like if it's possible to sue
yourself for stupidity? Dave's hoppin' mad at the Coca-Cola people
for not providing a warning label on their tiny 12 oz soda cans that would
disclose the potential explosive properties of a can of Diet Dr.
Pepper. Dave's now on a crusade to save the world from this
hazard... stay tuned... give him a call on his celly and
he'll explain everything - LOL - just be prepared to be on the phone for
a while...
A new room -
R Macs Pub in Collingswood - has been added to the schedule for June.
Lots of love
and thanks to Jo and Dawn for their photo contributions from the
Cherrywood Lounge on Saturday the 4th. Amazingly, they were able
to take clear pics despite nearly being shaken to death by a runaway
bass ghost in the room... awesome job, girls.
Thanks to all our friends who checked us out at Carollo Bar &
Restaurant in Hainesport on Saturday the 11th. We had a great time
and look forward to coming back to this new place soon.
Next up is
Dadz on Friday, March 31st - we'll see you there!
Have you
noticed we haven't posted any pics in a while? Perhaps Dot will
find her ID in the same place as her camera, and our Dave won't be
forced to show extreme social dexterity by negotiating her admission
into a bar while rapping lyrics to a Linkin Park tune?!!... well, it
makes for a good story...
We'd like to extend a little belated VALENTINE'S
LOVE to all of you
dear friends who've supported us - and a little extra for our homegrrrl
Pattie for some recent rough times - we love you all!
The band is busy working on new material we'll be phasing in over the
next several gigs...
Be sure to check us out at The Cherrywood Lounge this Saturday night,
March the 4th - and a new room, Carollo's in Mt. Holly next Saturday,
March 11th.
How cool is
it to relax between sets and listen to killer renditions of Priest, Iron
Maiden and Queensryche? Almost as cool as being asked to gig with
an awesome act like DVS,
who we thank for the opportunity to melt faces with them at an overly-packed
Cherrywood Lounge this past Friday night... make sure to check
these guys out - they are AWESOME. Pics from the show have been
posted - special thanks to Jo, Dawn and Pattie for their contributions!
A surprise
special dual show with DVS
has been scheduled for the Cherrywood Lounge in Blackwood, NJ this
Friday night, Jan 13th... show starts @ 9:30...
HAPPY NEW
YEAR!
The band
thanks all our beloved friends and family, and those crazy patrons at
Dadz for coming out and celebrating New Year's with us - what a whacky
night it was for us... we thank Vinny at Dadz for giving us the
opportunity as well... As a result of this gig, we found out some
cool things:
1. Everyone loves boobs.
2. Paul is apparently less than an A-cup.
3. Our photographer can get people to do just about anything.
4. Our sound system can withstand like, six people falling on it,
and keep going.
Pictures for the event have been posted here.
Please don't sue us if you go blind "staring" at them.
So now, we take a little break, sit back and reflect on what was an
unbelievable year, with an excited anticipation looking forward into
2006... we're back at Dadz on Friday, January 27th, and hope to
see you there!
T'was the
Night Before the... <ehem>...Night Before Christmas, and all
'round Mt. Holly
A Christmas glow could be seen at Dadz, and its patrons were joyous and
jolly
Some of this was due of course, to the presence of the Holiday Season
But others believed Santa's elves Naked Social may just be the reason
They'd arrived once again, to bring joyous rounds of cheer
And to give full frontal rock & roll to every willing ear
To promote love and joy, and to bear intangible gifts
And to spawn deliciously groovy rhythms and bodacious guitar riffs
They rocked all through the night, and it eventually came to pass
All the rockin' and rollin' and the sets pretty much kicked ass
Santa was so pleased, he pulled the boys aside
And said unto them with a glowing, St. Nicky-like pride,
"Guys you RAAAWWWKKK!... and impressed even me!"...
"On Christmas morn you'll get something extra under the
tree!"...
MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL OUR FRIENDS
AND FAMILY!
'Tis the
season to give thanks - and there's plenty to go around... Mike is
thankful for his beautiful new son... Paul really appreciates the
fact that his PA fits in a Nissan Pulsar, and that his yacht didn't sink
in a recent storm... Fran is thankful for his Splawn guitar head,
but if only it had an extra orifice, that would be really awesome
- but he'll settle for porn... Dave is thankful for Tylenol
3... Tony's glad to be alive...
Mostly, we're thankful for YOU... and we hope to see YOU during
our busy December, which culminates with a BLOWOUT
NEW YEAR'S EVE BASH at
Dadz...
Coming this
week, our last show at the world famous Alpine Lounge in Williamstown -
which will be closing Jan 1st and changing ownership... Hope to
see you there!
Happy
Thanksgiving!
Shouts to
all our beloved peeps - especially the ones we hadn't seen in a while -
for catching our show at Keegan's this past Saturday, and for witnessing
the unveiling of our new banner, as well as some new tunes...
Patty, we listen! We just need to work on that last 1/3...
Congrats to that skilled patron who melted the last of the ice cubes in
the urinals, but never copped to his or her feat to collect the door
prize... I'm guessing it wasn't, but if it WAS a female, they were
probably a fire fighter from Kentucky...
Even more craziness is on the horizon - gigs at Dadz, the Alpine, and
McDonnell's coming up soon... we'll see you out there!
It's really
a drag that our staff photographer missed our Dadz gig this past Friday,
because my weak written prose trying to describe the atmosphere there
can't possibly measure up... with all the sweaty, writhing bodies
packed sooo tightly together, whipped into a rock & roll frenzy, and
all the pushing... pulling...
pushing... pulling... holy crap! I'd better stop!...
The gorgeous Bonnie, with her magic eyes, and even more magical hands;
the lovely and alluring Alex, our new friend Lori - shakin' that drop
dead fine booty all night... our buds, the suave and debonair
Damien, and Evan - who was a real hit with the ladies with that cowboy
hat... At the risk of sounding cheesy, I'll say it again....
You people RAWK!!!
The band
goes back to work preparing new material for our return to Keegan's in
November... Please also mark your calendars for New
Year's Eve at Dadz...
It's gonna ROCK!
Camden County
ROCKS! Cheers to all our peeps for giving us a memorable night at
McDonnell's - Bonnie, Patty, Terri, JoAnn, Rita and Doug, Heather, Dawn, Leonard,
Donovan McNott, and Hyjynx alum Tommy H.... Yo, Tom - WE GOT THIS.
See you this Friday
night at Dadz in Lumberton!
Your wait is almost
over... the band makes its triumphant return from summer break by
appearing at McDonnell's Bar & Grille in Lindenwold, NJ on Friday September
23rd. Witness for yourself the miracle of modern medical science as Tony
retakes the stage with his band buddies!
Also, pics of Mike
& Terri's little bundle of joy are finally posted here
for your viewing pleasure... enjoy!
He's FINALLY
here!... The band welcomes our newest family member - Andrew Michael
Costa, born to proud parents Mike and Terri Costa on Thursday morning, July 21st
- coming in at 6 lbs 14 oz, 20 inches... Mom and Dad are doing
great... huge hugs, kisses and love to them... Pics of the kid
forthcoming soon!
We'd also like to
thank all those who packed Keegan's these past Friday and Saturday nights for
the Woobie & The All-Stars shows... and to Rick and Dean for the
superior production - but what else would you expect? Also to Kimmy and
Dot for Dave's new little friend... he REALLY appreciates it!
When a band says it
has a "major announcement" to make, usually it means they now realize
that there was an asshole among them, and it was time to part ways. For
us, that's not the case... We have a couple of major announcements to make
- but we think they are positive...
Around July 1st,
Tony was diagnosed with pretty extensive cardiac disease - to the point where
simple invasive procedures weren't sufficient to neutralize... On July
5th, he spent 9 grueling hours on the operating table having FIVE bypasses
done. He is now recovering, and assures you that he'll be back,
"better than ever". As a result of this temporary setback, the
upcoming Keegan's gig (7/22-23) will have to be cancelled... However, it's
a good bet that most of the band will be there those nights regardless,
masquerading as "Woobie and The All-Stars"...
As far as the second "major announcement", we'd ask that you check
back here shortly for some long-anticipated wonderful news!...
This past Keegan's
gig we asked Bob if we could play in the bar corner, like the old days...
we were getting a little bored of the other room, and were longing to get back
to that intimate feel... Thanks to all at our monthly weekend at Keegan's;
Dot and Kim, Alex and Val, Bonnie, Tew... that crazy bachelorette
party... and our buddy Damien, who took the mic for "Ain't Talkin'
'Bout Love" and rocked it... thanks also for heckling us all night,
dude... HA!!!
Don't miss us at
McDonnell's Bar & Grille in Lindenwold this Friday night!
Big thanks to all
our GloCo friends who caught our show at the Alpine - Joan and John, all the
Whitman Square Crew, and our brothers from DVS - who hauled ass over after their
gig to catch a tune... YOU PEOPLE ROCK!!
On another note, Mike C the drummer wins the Ironman of The Year Award...
Friday afternoon the day before our gig, he sustained an ugly laceration to his
wrist that required several stitches to close (he swears it wasn't a suicide
attempt)... And yet, he was able to gut out a multi-set performance with
nary a glitch... special thanks to Paul Q for waiting in the wings in case
something gruesome happened...
Catch us again this
Friday and Saturday night at Keegan's Pub for a NAKED WEEKEND!
AIN'T NO BEAUTY QUEENS IN THIS
LOCALITY
Another crazy night
at Dadz!... special love to Dot, for handling the high-res photo duty, and to
our friends Kim, Dawn, and Nicole... and to our friend Alex... You
all make it SO difficult to concentrate on playing our instruments! And
yes Alex, we're trying like hell to get Dave online... but we DO fear the
consequences!
Dadz has given us three more dates later in the year...
Don't forget this
Friday at Keegan's - May 20th!
McDonnell's Bar
& Grille has been added to the schedule for Friday June 17th.
04.27.05
Watching our own
Paul Lib risk life and limb in the girlie mosh-pit this past Friday at
McDonnell's is a visual the band will cherish forever... Big warm fuzzies
to all our friends - the radiant Terri C, JoAnn, Hez, Jenn... Matt, Jackie and
Scott, the
Potzruski gang, Lisa and Ed, Birthday Girl Pattie... according to the gig
pics, we think Billy Corgan was there too... The band also appreciates and
thanks everyone for signing our mailing list - although we get some rather
strange ones like:
"Ilovehavingmy**everythirdthursdaywhileallthelivestockonmyfarmwatches@comcast.net"...
...Will it come back? Ya think?
Circle this date for our next: Dadz - Friday, May 13th...
04.16.05
Huge thanks to all
who attended the big Keegan's shows last week, and our inaugural Dadz
gig... to Mike Smith for getting onstage with us and belting "Highway
To Hell" at Keegan's... to Dot for taking pics at Dadz... and
to the wild and crazy dancers at Dadz... things promise to get even
crazier on Friday, the 13th of May, when we return.
We'll see you again at McDonnell's in Lindenwold this Friday, April 22nd...

preparing new material.
02.20.05
