The Pier is the place to be and we are honored that they put our music up.

get it here:
A little info on the tracks:

"Cabarete" is a beach in the north coast of the Dominican Republic.  I (robert) was there visiting with some friends and the melody came to me while walking on the beach in the late afternoon. I kept humming it until I got to our place and was able to record it on my little recorder and when I got back to the States was able to finish the entire song.

I don't actually remember writing "Tatica's Town." I think is one of those songs that just kinda pop-up and you find it on a piece of music-paper with a melody in it that you know you wrote, but don't actually remember writing it.  I do know that "Tatica's Town" is about Higuey; the small town I grew up in the East of the Dominican Republic.

7/8 at Shrine

It was a rainy night and the Shrine was not as packed as it usually is on a friday night but the fyah was definitely on !
We had an amazing time playing a pretty rocking set that included 2 guest singers.
Poor Mike (bass) fell of his bike just a couple of days before the show and he fractured two fingers in his right hand, luckily the break did not affect his Index and Middle fingers so he was still able to bring the fire that he always brings on the bass.
This is also the first show back with Mike since 2006 !
Everybody played a great show and perhaps more importantly had a great time.
The audience at the Shrine definitely showed their love on that tip bucket so many thanks to them !
We'll be back at Shrine in Sept.

Below is the set list for the show:

El Pueblo Jam
Morning Glory
Water Get No Enemy
* Babylon System Slave
