NEW STUDIO ALBUM Where the F!#$% is the new studio CD, you ask? It's fall and you promised, you bald mother$%^$^$! Sorry, still recording at Capt. Cabesa studios in NY. The Europe tour set us back timewise about 2 months and we want this to be spotless so..."Fortunate Observer of Time" will be mixed and mastered at SONY studios in NYC and released through ProgRock Records http://www.progrockrecords.com in early 2005, all shiny and yummy. You can hear many of the new tracks at our live shows, including the FC/HTM show on 11/13, if you want a sneak preview. 5. OH, THE FUN IN THE FALL... We've played some really fun shows with some great bands this fall and we appreciate all of the new and old friends we've made and kept! PROG IN THE PARK was awesome! Downtime show with LITTLE ATLAS and NEIL CAVANAGH was just plain ol' down and dirty fun. Saratoga Springs with Andy Hearn's ARC was a reunion of old friends and good music. And Montreal with MIRIODOR was a total class act with amazing sound and venue. Four totally different shows, all amazing for different reasons...thanks to everyone who was in the audience and involved in the shows themselves. A special thanks to our Frogg "Staph" (ok, I stole that from NJPH) Adam Rizzuti and Rich Feltman for their continuing help making the details run smoothly at the live shows. Links to all of these artists can be found at http://www.froggcafe.com 6. A BASEMENT FULL OF BOOTLEGS Ok, I'm not promising any time frame (probably spring...DOH) but as soon as FOT is done and out the door, we will be putting together a full length live Frogg Cafe CD...might be a "best of" or it might be a single show that we liked. Feel free to reply and tell me what you prefer...maybe we'll listen to you and shower you with praise for your wisdom. Ok, enough news. Move on with your life. The best thing you can ever do for a band is come to see them live so please...don't forget to order you tics for the FC/HTM show on Nov. 13th http://www.njproghouse.com/happythemanfroggtix.html (3rd plug, I think) All the Best, Andy Sussman for Frogg Cafe http://www.froggcafe.com ------------------------ Yahoo!
