Greetings to you all!  Let the countdown begin toward 2013.  We are mere days from the beginning of a new year and here's hoping 2013 is much improved from 2012.  It's been a very tough year on people in general, the economy, the music business - where do I start?  Next year has got to get better.  Here's to a true "Happy New Year"!

Review from last week’s gigs:  Friday evening we were at the VFW on Carroll Street in Binghamton.  WE had an excellent show with a good crowd and a great location.  We will be back in the New Year to do it again on February 2, 2013.  The VFW hopes to have more in the way of live musical acts in the future. What a great workout too!  Saturday night was the final show at the Central Hotel & Tavern.  We had a low crowd turnout over the last few months that have forced the cancellation of any live music at the Hotel at least for the foreseeable future.

These day’s clubs and bars have all to do to capture your almighty buck.  If you’re not serving food and lots of it then you’re not going to pay the electric bill just by popping open cans and offering a band every now and then.  This has been happening everywhere from Sidney to Windsor and from Port Crane to Endicott - low turnout at clubs period.  And again here's hoping the New Year improves the club and bar scenes while there are  still some places left to go and have a drink to share some time with friends and unwind.  “The Times They Are a Changin'”

Once again, thanks to all of the people who came out to jam with the SCB one final time at the Central Hotel.  It made the night very special for sure.

Our last show of the year is this Friday before New Year’s Eve.  We’ll be live at the Hitchin' Post.  The show begins 8pm.  Stop down and share a cocktail with the band if you can, we would love to see you all for the holidays.

Peace out and be well, and hug a Reindeer,
