Ever Onward.........To The Sovereign Center!

Hello again. Now is the countdown to our next concert at the Sovereign Performing Arts Center in Reading, PA, Friday June 8th. The classic rock radio station WRFY has been promoting the show and I heard the ad once a few weeks back. As usual, we are gearing up to make the concert a truly memorable event for everyone. As the "American Led Zeppelin" show keeps getting bigger and better we are looking to take it to an even higher level. The entire band is all in agreement that they would really like to do some concerts in Europe. I told them I would start the ball rolling to make that dream a reality for them. I wish JR Warner a safe trip back and forth to England early next month. I still love my Martin guitar. The first run of the "Purple Burst" germanium transistor fuzz boxes I built are all spoken for. I saw my old friend Pete Cattaneo over the weekend and played a little guitar, listened to some 45's and yukked it up a bit. Congrats on the new(old) Martin acoustic Pete! I will be back at the Bridgeport Ribhouse this coming Sunday Eve. June 3rd for our monthly rock summit. That will be a nice warm up for the big rock show the following week. Now I must tend to tightening up my pedalboard I use with GTLO. It has lasted through quite a bit of shows and is a little road worn. With the proper care it will get me through another three years. All The Best, PH

New Day, New Blog!

Wow, It's hard to believe that the GTLO initial run of shows this year is over. It was a lot of work, some ups and downs (Mostly Ups!) and lots of fun. I made it through a couple of the shows battling illness, as did Sinclair, but we pulled it off with nary a hitch. Our commitment to being straight sure helped when the chips were down. It's good to have a little time off. I am doing some extra shows with Rock Dude, John McNutt, with Adam from GTLO on drums. I just wrote a couple more songs that I can't wait to get recorded. Sinclair and I will be gearing up the recording studio to do some more songs soon. Thanks to all the folks that came to our shows and extra special thanks to those that bought the Sinclair 2.5 cd! I hope you like it. We are gearing up to get the Sinclair machine running in a big way, similar to the GTLO show, but with mostly original material. As most people that know us tend to know, we love authentic original hard rock in the vein of the greatest bands of all time. This is what we do, no amount of money or promises of fame and fortune could ever sway us. Others have tried to convince us otherwise and have failed. At the end of the day we are who we are and we do what we do. And Paul Sinclair can sleep at night! Best, PH
