Hoboeween

What a great time we had last night at Sean's full-moon costume party! I was an elf that Santa fired, Thom was a werewolf and Jon was a sailor. The crowd was great, and the bands were awesome -- The Watermen, Heart Shaped Rock, Sun God in Exile, Clubberlang... The room probably sounded better than any bar we've ever played in. It is after all, a recording studio. Having Bob Bergeron come up and play/sing a song with us for the first time in over a year was also a real treat. We haven't played "Charlie" since he left the band, and it's a great song. Here's the setlist:
Orange - Phil - St. Starin' - Charlie - Ghost in My Heart

Next stop on the Hoboe train is a Halloween party on Tuesday, in support of Independent candidate Ben Chipman for State Representative. Ben has been a friend of mine for a long time, over a decade and he's got an excellent chance of winning this race... so we're going to have fun at any rate... we're playing downstairs at The Empire.

On other fronts, Adam Ayan from Gateway Mastering Studios has agreed to take on the mastering of our debut CD, so we will be launching a fundraising campaign to cover the costs very soon. Also, our debut CD is now available online at CDBaby, and will soon be available on iTunes, Amazon.com and more.

Stay tuned for more exciting Hoboe news....
