  • Hey Erik,
    I'm bringing 4 xmas singles to u tonight, to donate to the benefit:

    2004- Someday at Christmas / Betterman
    2006- Love, Reign O'er Me / Rockin' in the Free World
    2007- Santa God / Jingle Bells
    2008- Santa Cruz / Golden State

    I'd have an extra 2005 xmas single to bring, too, if 10c had actually decided to send us what we paid for that yr (we were both members, & neither of us received it! :evil: ). It would also be nice if they'd respond to my emails about the matter. A'HEM! But hey, what can u do? See u soon!

    Good time @ the boathouse last night. Met some cool folks from the board. Did anyone there see the 2 fights after the band stopped playing? One in the parking lot and one on the way out the door. I said to one of the guys standing there watching, "So this is what happens when a PJ tribute band stops playing." But once the cops showed up I was out of there. I don't talk to cops after midnight. :lol:

  • I'm up way too early, nursing a slight hangover from last night.....but i had to come here and say

    1) Last night was my first time seeing Backseat Lover and i have to say....they were fucking awesome! Even with Jay (lead singer) feeling like shit and being under the weather, they still put on an impressive show....and i do not impress easily!...(you guys just landed yourself a new fan....you definitely will be seeing more of me at your shows from now on.....and no that's not a threat. ;):mrgreen: )

    :clap::clap::clap::clap::clap::clap::clap::clap: :thumbup:

    much like the real band....they are not just great musicians but they are some cool ass human beings as well! I salute you guys and i am looking forward to our Harpers Ferry event even more!!

    ...& I'm telling you right now.....there is no question who is going to have the best band tearing shit up on April 10th....BOSTON!!!!!!!!! :D:D

    anybody who thinks cover bands are lame...bring your ass to Harpers Ferry on April 10th!!.......I guarantee you will leave with a whole new perspective. 8-)

    2) Thank you Colleen & Tony + Nathan for the donations last night....with help from awesome people like you i think our fundraiser is going to be a great success! you guys rock! 8-)

    3) Got to meet some 10c'ers last night for the first time.....as always, it's a pleasure to meet fellow fans....because Pearl Jam has the best ones on the fucking planet....BUT!!!...Jason!.....you left without saying goodbye! :evil: WTF DUDE?!?!?! I turned around and i saw your whole crew heading for the door without a word! I hope everything was Ok as i didn't even get a chance to ask.....I'll see ya next month at the the fundraiser you fucker!! :mrgreen:


    E dog.....it was good to see you again as well brother....we gotta do this more often!

    Marc...I hope you made it home safely....as well as the rest of you!!


    now i gotta go try and smoke this hangover away.......but i bet Tony is feeling even shittier than me right now hahahahahahahaha....(you were buzzing very nicely last night brother :lol::lol: ) good times Fo Sho!!
  • No problem, Erik. :)

    Last night was SICK! That's the most fun I've had at a BSL show in a while. I love being surrounded by such a great group of ppl that I can just let loose with. And the band, OMG... they kicked some SERIOUS ass! It was a pleasure meeting some of u "boardies" there (youngster, CantKeepMeHere, & 3legged dog), but I guess I missed LoveBoatAdmiral & FenwayFaithful... what's with jetting outta there early?!

    Yeah, those fights were crazy at the end. The firetrucks, ambulances, & cruisers were blocking our car in! I heard there was even a cat-fight during the show, but totally missed that. Lani almost ran over someone passed out in parking lot when they were leaving :lol:. Dracut :roll:.

    Tony's feeling a bit dehydrated, but he'll survive. My neck is killing me, but at least the headache is gone. I can't even imagine how Jay feels! And tell Kerry I hope her back is alright. Everyone rest up now... this was just a pregame for the big event on April 10th! Can't wait to see all u fools again! :mrgreen:

  • Good to see everyone there last night. Pumped for April 10 now. Thanks to Erik for giving us a reason to get together. Sorry I missed you last night Given To DragonFly, didn't realize you were there or I would've said hi. Great to meet Natan and Eric though. Sorry I missed the fights haha. See you guys next month.

    Well - Well - Well

    Wasn't that just 100 times more than you would have ever expected.
    Erik I am truely sorry for rushing out but our driver came in at 1:15am and said that it was now or never to get a ride back to our hotel - April 10th we all have to meet up a littlebit earlier and truely hang a bit before the show!!!

    Meeting U R A Crazy Breed was crazycool - my wife got a real kick out of the band making eriks announcement "looking" for me! I thought it was kinda cool too.
    Youngster!!! You ball of energy, around the bar and on the dance floor it was cool to see you in the circle by the fence as well -
    FenwayFaithful, you are just 2 cool amigo and even more comical in person we gotta get together a little bit early before the April 10th event-
    Given To Dragonfly, what a little firecracker! I think you are the only one who spent more time on the dance floor then me. I am sorry but I still don't know what you said to me in reference to my pal Tim even though you were kind enough to repeat it like 4 times because sometime around 1am my ear drums officially burst - I lost my throat at about 12:59am -

    It was a massive good time and even though I allowed myself to become totally absorbed in the music and less social that I originally intended I cannot wait to do it again!!! My wife who is tons of fun still cannot stop talking about how good BackSeatLover was even with an under the weather Jay on vocals. The whole band is totally solid but the lead guitarist - HOLY SHIT - I only picked my jaw up about an hour ago -
    I don't know... isn't that what it is all about for us in the first place - Those Songs - Those Notes - Those Lyrics - and having the chance for all of us superfans to raise our voices together with those 5 guys on stage last night and have our collective unit create a breathing organic soundtrack to the few hours we all got to spend together.
    Thanks alot friends it was a great time.

    Erik - we have got to have an "organized" early meeting/hangtime before what ever time we are "suppossed" to get together on the 10th

    Honestly guys it was all 100% my pleasure and I am counting the days to hang again and once more live in the sweet moment of killer music

    I think with all the fun that was had last night, we all need to agree to meet @ Harpers Ferry on the 10th at about 6pm. Besides, the parking in Allston on a Saturday night near Harpers Ferry will be hard to come by so it is best to show up early. ;)

    I grew up in the area and there's nothing within walking distance... or safe walking distance ;) But I'd say there are 3 which are a short short cab ride and not crazy as far as prices.. although i'd only recommend 2 of em

    Days Inn has two properties down in Allston along the Charles -
    -Days Hotel Boston - Harvard Fenway - this one is OK... we used to have hotel parties here
    -Days Inn Boston - is a dump I believe - never been but have driven by... not heard good things
    -Holiday Inn has a place in Brookline been here for a wedding... decent

    then of course you're only a cab ride away from tons of places in Cambridge & Boston ...

    i was just looking and it seems the Best Western Terrace Inn on 1650 Commonwealth Avenue is the best bet.
