Been going to Rush’s Jones Beach shows for the past few years now, and each time it’s an absolute blast. We usually start the day chilling out on the beach, but this year we took a little excursion to Coney Island to ride the Cyclone and eat some Nathan’s hot dogs before the bands blew our minds.
Yup … that’s Diana Costello and myself at the Pleasantville Music Festival last weekend, where we helped handout the Listening Room compilation CD and glad handed the crowd.
Michelle DeAngelis of Yonkers stopped into The Listening Room yesterday and dropped some power pop on our heads. It was one of my typical book-and-book operations where we weren’t sure what we were getting until Michelle walked in.
Michelle was out at Chat 19 last week and here is her post: “Chat 19 in Larchmont has got it all! Cute bartenders, great drinks and DJ Sebastian every other Friday! The place to see and be seen in the LoHud area.”
I was blown away when I heard what this kid (And I do mean kid!) offered up in The Listening Room. The guy’s 17 years old, is touring nationally, opened for Dan Bern in Tarrytown a few weeks back and if you can’t see a little young Bobby D. here, well, we ain’t drinking the same water. Steve Kirkman and Fred Gillen Jr. sit in on the first track.
The Tribes Hill member and Hope Machine singer-songwriter rocks out for a set in The Listening Room. With guest stars Fred Gillen Jr. (of Gillen & Turk) and Anthony da Costa.

It’s crazy sexy cool complete with hookahs, exotic drinks, dance music and a sexy clientele. A definite Crawl fav! Torches at MacMenamins Grill 115 Cedar Street, New Rochelle. (914) 632-4900 More photos
