Happy Spring everyone! We hope you are all doing well and getting ready for some great spring/Summer shows. I am in the works right now with our good friend "Fletch" and some bands getting ideas together for this years' Fletch-Fest! We are going to do a few things a bit different this year and one of 'em is... This event will be TICKET-ONLY and we are only selling 250 of them. We want to keep it small and fun for everyone AND we don't want any trouble with the cops like we almost had last year. If there's only 250 of us, it's a win-win situation. I will keep you all posted on this blog and on our Myspace page, which by the way will soon have tunes available for you to buy. I am also going to have a new Beechwood podcast available soon at iTunes... again, I will keep y'all posted on that stuff.
I just want to give a shout-out to our Great friends Mini Jacket, who in the past couple of months have given us some really fun shows! I hope you all will take the time to go check them out sometime. They are such a great band and i think you'll all like them a lot!
Anyhoo... I will be back in touch soon. Think Sunshine!

Much love,
Your friends,
Jason, Jerry and Danny

Hi!

Sorry it's been so long since i wrote to y'all... I've just been working on my own page and not really working hard for the band lately, but we need some shows so i'm here... back to work! We started off 2007 at the Horse Hair on New Years Eve doing some acoustic stuff. It was Jerry, Karl S. and Myself... (DGF) on guitars playing for some friends. The second show of the year came a week later for a nice crowd up Pat's Peak's 'Sled Pub'. It's a really fun place to play after "Romper Room" is over... I've never seen so many little kids in a bar before!
We are going into rehearsal-mode again and we have some new stuff in the works, so be sure to come out and check it out. I'll write back soon and let y'all know.

Happy Belated New Year to all of our friends and family!

We had so much fun...

Playing with Ron Noyes Band and Grayson Capps and the Stump knockers in Manchester last month. I am sorry i have not said Thank You to all of you who came out for that show... and all the shows that weekend. I saw so many old friends! I hope some of you will be out in Henniker tomorrow night at Pat's Peak. Shhh... don't say anything to 'you know who' (if your coming, you know) It will be a very fun night in one of my all-time favorite places to play. It's such a great sounding room and a very "Henniker" atmosphere. There is honestly not another place like it! So, grab your drinkin'-shoes, and a driver and get yourselves out the door for a real good time! We can't wait to see ya'!

ps- Dave Macallen took this pic at The Milly's Tavern show. Thanks DM

Tonight in Manchester w/ Grayson Capps

We are psyched to be playing tonight with Grayson Capps and the Stumpknockers in Manchester, NH at Milly's Tavern. The show starts at 8pm and i'm pretty sure that The Ron Noyes Band is playing too. We hope to see some of you there.
Tomorrow night Grayson and the boys will be at Penuche's Ale House in Concord, which promises to be another rowdy show because that's Sponge's ol' stompin grounds. So grab a Designated Driver and some friends and come see these guys. They are great musicians and even better people!

"Tooky" Legion this weekend

First of all we want to thank Kevin and Amanda for the great party saturday night. We played a few songs with Kevin and as always, he was on Fire! The guy really knows how to add some spice to a song. It was a blast!
We'll be playing Saturday the 14th at The Contoocook Legion on Bound Tree Road. This show is a benefit for The 521 Club (http://www.521club.org/). The 521 club was founded in 2004 after the tragic death of our dear friend Josh Russell. The club raises money with it's annual fishing derby and various other events including this one. The money is donated to the Josh Russell Ski Racing Scholarship Fund (http://www.jrskiracing.org/) We all know that Josh would be really proud of these events and we hope that you will all come out and join us for a great night of music and laughs. My brother Dave Foster (Mini Jacket) will be sitting in on drums and hopefully there will be a couple other guest musicians. The cost is $10 per person and the musiic starts at 8pm. We look forward to seeing you there.

Eagle Square and The Simon Center

Thanks to everyone who came out for the shows saturday. We had a blast playing with Dan Blakeslee and Mini Jacket in Concord. They sounded so good! It was a great event and a really nice place to play, and I hope we can do it again sometime soon. The acoustics in Eagle Square are amazing and i think the city should start making it a weekly thing.
NEC was fun too! I was surprised to see a bunch of people from the Eagle Square show there. I'm sorry if i didn't perform well, but right in the middle of the second set i lost my voice and came down with a bad case of the flu that is still kickin' my butt. I did have fun though and it was really nice to play in our hometown again. Thanks to Ben Smith for setting that one up for us. That's two for you this year buddy! Here are a few pics that my brother Dave took at NEC. Sorry i chose blurry ones wif, but i like Michie's devil eyes in the top one and my pigeon-toed stance and the fact that Jerry's about to laugh at one of my F***-ups. As you all may know, David F. is an amazing photographer and rarely takes a blurry shot, but i think he may have gotten into the tequilla with Michelle and Ben that evening over at Davey Mac's pre-party.

Thanks again everyone!

The Big Fire

I had to post this picture that my brother Dave took at Fletch-Fest... I just think it is such a great photo. It is also on The Mini Jacket Blog along with several others from David, so check them out... It's in my Links.
