IBC: We'll be representing the Capital Region Blues Network at the International Blues Competition in Memphis, TN. The IBC runs from 1/31/12 through 2/4/12, with quarter finals on 2/1 - 2/2, semi-final on 2/3, and finals on 2/4. Wish us luck, and if you're going to be in Memphis during that time please let us know. We can be reached at hitman@hitmanbluesband.com
Benfit for IBC: You knew this was coming, right? Yup, help us GET to the IBC (and sleep somewhere besides the back of the car)! 12/18/11 - Benefit concert (with special guest friends) at the Brickhouse Brewery, 67 West Main Street Patchogue, NY 11772-3001 (631) 447-2337. Show starts at 3:00 pm, runs until 7.
Reviews: We been getting great reviews for "Pale Rider" in numerous magazines and e-zines. See some of them reprinted in our reviews section. We're proud that "Pale Rider" was in the running for FOUR Grammy nominations! Thanks to everyone for their encouragement! |
CD: We finally finished up the recording for "Blues Enough"! The finished version IS DIFFERENT from the version sold in the UK. If you have that version, it will be a collector's item (yup - in 500 years it will be worth big money.) If you purchased a copy in the UK, please E-mail Hitman. Just include the first word in the third line of the "thanks to" section, and we'll send you a link to download the entire release for free, along with the new graphics files.
In Memoriam: To our dear friend and agent, Cat Anderson. Cat believed in us and started us touring overseas. He was not only a great agent, but proved himself many times over to be a true and loyal friend. We send out our sympathies to his life partner Marcella and their wonderful son Jake. Cat will be missed, and always remembered.
RockBand: "Two Minute Warning", from the "Angel In The Shadows" release, is now available as an add-on for RockBand. Distributed by Alt-Strum Productions, it's the first of what we hope to be many of our tunes that will be available. Have fun!
