5.16.12: From Steve

It's been an odd touring year for me and both the Miracle 3 and The Baseball Project. Most of last year was spent on the road, zipping back and forth across both the US and the Atlantic as we played almost 150 shows. This year has been a year of staying much closer to home—well, except for a couple of weeks in Mexico and another just completed over in Australia.

But in the next few months, both bands will be active but mostly within the 200 mile range of New York City. I’ll be playing with Jason, Dave and Linda on a bill with our pals Dressy Bessy this Saturday in Brooklyn at Littlefield’s (full info and link below). It’s my first time at that club but I’ve heard some very good things. And then, the M3 and I will be going on a barnstorming 3-day tour with The Fleshtones in NYC, Rehoboth Beach (Delaware) and Philadelphia next month, before I switch over to my sporting gear for a few gigs with The Baseball Project in July.

5.16.12: The Baseball Project at The MET

Allow yourself to be transported via your computer screen to that very special night in April when The Baseball Project had a chance to perform at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Our good friends at The Met did a great job of shooting the event and have made the complete show available for checking out on YouTube. Enjoy.

5.16.12: Steve in Australia

The last time I was in Australia was 1986 with The Dream Syndicate. We had just released our new record "Out of the Grey" with a song called "Boston" that people seemed to like although the title track was the one that was being played daily on MTV. Yes, it was that long ago. What can I say?

The land down under (which was most likely being segued out of our video on MTV) is just SO far away. But thanks to the wonderful and rocking Hoodoo Gurus, I'm going back to help them celebrate their 30 Year Anniversary on a bill that will also include The Fleshtones, Redd Kross, Died Pretty, the 5,6,7,8's and other amazing acts. I'll be on the Sydney and Melbourne gigs. Who knows? Maybe this time I just won't end up leaving.

The baseball season is still a few months away but here's something to tide you over and keep you warm--a clip of The Baseball Project singing "Take Me Out To The Ball Game" and "Past Time" from Spring Training out in Arizona last March. Expect new music and some interesting gigs from the band (starting with a performance at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York on April 13) in the coming year.
