OLD NEWS...
Catch up on past updates
here:
AUGUST
A look back at July:
-
We kicked off July at one of our favorite events of the
year, the Rochester Jaycee's Night Before the Fourth
Fireworks show. The chance to perform for over 20,000 people
is always a great motivator and we're always excited for the
show. There were lots of changes this year. The Jaycee's cut
both the field and the stage in half, moving everything way
closer to the people. On the downside, the weather was a bit
sketchy. After a sunny start, the dark clouds starting
rolling in just as we wrapped our sound check and by 5:30 it
was a full-on downpour. Fortunately, the rain tapered off
around 6:30 and with lightning and neighborhood fireworks
for a backdrop, we got off the show. Thanks again to
the Jaycees for having us out!
-
We were back at "The Barn" on July 5th for an Independence
Day Celebration. A lot of folks were up at the lake and the
barn was rocking! They billed the event as an 80's party and
a many people dressed the part. Very cool! A big thanks
again to Mike for keeping us liquored-up and well
entertained with his lip-synching. His Enrique Iglesias
impression is killer.
- After a couple of years away from the Port City we made
our return on the 18th at The Page. Formerly the 80's
hot-spot Bananas, the building has seen a bit of a
resurgence since becoming The Page. Gone is the greenhouse
seating and the island flair, replaced with a more modern,
updated look. The band plays in the basement, which has a
very cool, old-school club vibe to it. We arrived just as
the black clouds began boiling up overhead and the last of
the gear just beat the heavy rain and tornado warnings
inside. Fortunately, the nasty weather didn't deter the
crowds and we had a great showing for our first time out.
Everyone had a great time and we're excited to announce
we'll be back at The Page on September 12th!
- Though we didn't see tornados here on the seacoast,
nasty storms cancelled our appearance at the
Music-By-The-Sea Concert Series. Hopefully we'll have better
luck next year!
- It was a very special GAZPACHO show at Kelley's Row on
the last Saturday of the Month. Thanks to everyone who
joined us for the release of PLEATHER AND PAIN, our
first Live CD. Between the fog from our new
fog-machine and the pre-game festivities, it was a bit of a
hazy night overall. Still, it was great being back at the
Row!
- We closed out July at the Hot Summer Nights Concert
Series in South Berwick. Big surprise, rain and
thunderstorms were in the forecast yet again forcing the
show inside the sweltering City Hall Auditorium. While our
sound check went off without a hitch, seconds into the first
song the fire alarm went off forcing us to evacuate the
building (a first for GAZPACHO). Despite the heat,
evacuation and the delay we still had a great crowd that
stuck it out to the end. It was nice as always to see a lot of
families digging the music together. While the rampant
debauchery of an adults only club show is certainly
entertaining, as parents it's always fun to play a "family"
oriented event and watch the kiddies rocking out. The Hot
Summer Nights Folks promise us they'll have us back next
year. We can't wait!
PLEATHER AND PAIN It is
here, our first Live CD. Featuring tunes from our last
weekend at Kelley's in April, it's sure to cure any GAZPACHO
cravings you might have between shows. See us at a
show to get your copy!
A THREE HOUR TOUR... We're busy with reunions and
private events for most of the August but we're setting sail
on the 18th and 30th for a couple of cruises on the MV
Thomas Laighton. First up is our "Rockin' The River" show
with our good friends from 105.3FM The Shark. Shark cruises
are always a great time with lots of prizes and giveaways.
The 30th is an Isles of Shoals Steamship Company Party Boat
Cruise. It's a great way to wrap up summer, we hope to see
you there!
SEE YOU LATER SUMMER?!?! Didn't the snow just melt?
Looking ahead to fall, we'll be back at The Page in
Portsmouth on the 12th, Willy's Ale Room in Acton on
September 20th and our Weekend At Kelley's Row shows kick
back off the last weekend of the month in September.
We hope to see you out!
JULY
June's Recap:
-
It was a first for us on the 7th as we performed at a barn
party on Bow Lake. The party host leases several properties
on the lake and shuttles tenants up to a barn which he's
converted into a function hall for the shows. It was quite
cool. Here's a shout out to Joe Hooper, one of the more
interesting (and flatulent) patrons we've met. A big
thanks to our on-site contact Mike for all the help, lethal
drinks and swag for his company: MSG Manufacturing. They've
already invited us back for an Independence Day celebration.
Cool!
-
We made our debut on the 14th at Willy's Ale Room in Acton,
ME. As always with a new room some distance from our home
turf, we weren't sure what to expect. Much to our surprise,
Willy's turned out to be a great debut. The club was cool,
the staff great and the food was awesome (we definitely
recommend the wings, killer!). As if that wasn't enough, we
had a great crowd out to the show and made some new fans.
Thanks to everyone who made the trip up, it was great as
always seeing a lot of familiar faces. The drinks were
coming fast and furious, fortunately Maine is much more
considerate towards the entertainment in regards to their
liquor laws. Thanks to "Queensryche" Mark for the kamakazis,
Jenny for the Captain and Cokes (we'll get 867-5309 into the
set for you next show for sure!) and Tim for the beers.
We've been getting a lot of messages from people hoping
we'll be back, and we're pleased to say that our return to
Willy's is already booked for September 20th!
- We hit the beach at the NASWA resort on Lake
Winnipesauke with the folks from Hair Excitement on the 23rd
for their company picnic. A little rain didn't dampen their
spirits, right away everyone was getting
into it and by the third set people we're rocking in the sand,
chicken fights had broken out under the tent and folks were in the water!
We had a blast (and Chris may have found a new hair
stylist)! Thanks!
- The month ended at the Wentworth By The Sea Golf Club,
where we performed for the last day of the Oyster River
Class of 88 Reunion. It was Sunday and a family day,
which meant a pretty laid-back gig, but we always enjoy
seeing the little kids rocking out!
PLEATHER AND PAIN We're
making a special appearance on the 26th at Kelley's Row for
the release of our long-awaited Live CD. For those
that missed it, we recorded our final two performances of
the spring at Kelley's Row and will be releasing selections
from the show as PLEATHER AND PAIN: Live at Kelley's Row!
We hope to see you there!
FRESH BLOOD Three
first time performances for us in July:
First up, we'll be making our debut at The Page in
Portsmouth on the 18th. We've been itching to get a
steady gig going in the Port City and The Page has a good
buzz going about it, so please come out and help us rock the
place!
Next up, is an event we're very excited about, the Seacoast
Science Center Music-By-The-Sea Concert Series. Now a
few years old, these shows have become a major Seacoast
event and have attracted some of the top talent in the
region, including Cape heroes Entrain! We're very
excited to be on the bill this year and hope you can make it
down to join us at the beach! This is a family friendly
event, so pack up the kids and come on down!
We're very sad to say that one of our favorite events of the
summer will not be happening this year. The Dover
National Night Out has become a victim of the recently
enacted Dover Tax Cap. For those looking for something
to do on the last Thursday in July (the 31st), we'd like to recommend
the Hot Summer Nights Concert Series over in South Berwick,
ME. We'll be rocking the Central School Lawn from
6:30-8:30PM! It's family friendly and free, bring your gatorade,
spread out a blanket, throw down some lawn chairs, and let
the kiddies party like it's...(yeah, you get it)...
JUNE
The May that was:
-
The Relay For Life Benefit at the Rochester Elks was a
blast. We like to do a few "karma" gigs throughout the year
and this show was a great example of why. Tons of people
came out to help a great cause. Every table in the room was
filled and the dance floor was packed from the get-go.
Thanks a lot to everyone who made it out! Check out
some pics on our Media Page.
-
We played what's looking like our swan song at Michael's Harborside on the 9th. Word on the street is Michael's is
ending their live entertainment and we may have been the
last band to perform there. That said we went out with a
great show. Michael's was packed as usual and a lot of
people made it down from the Seacoast. It was our good
friend Amy's birthday and she had a large contingent out to
celebrate. We got her up on stage for a rousing version of
Hit Me With Your Best Shot, complete with alternate
lyrics. Happy Birthday!
- The birthdays continued as we rocked a private 50th
party at the Cochecho Country Club on the 10th. Happy
Birthday!
- Thursday, the 15th we performed at St. Paul's school in
Concord, NH as part of their "Spring Fling". St. Paul's
doesn't do an official "prom", so this event sort of makes
up for it. Our pal, DJ Scott Langlois hooked us up with the
gig. We got to play an hour set for the school on a huge
stage in a classy auditorium, and then Scott had the kids
rocking in a tent out back for the rest of the night. Given
the age of the average attendee (14-18), upscale location
and several hundred students dressed in their finest
prom-wear we weren't sure what to expect, but the St. Paul's
kids quickly showed they can rock with the best of them.
Separate Ways prompted a mass rush to the stage and it
immediately felt like a full on rock show. They didn't let
up until we wrapped the show with a request for Duran Duran.
Several groups actually stuck around to take some photos
with us. Very cool. Hopefully we'll be back again!
- We wrapped up May with a killer show at the Dover
Brickhouse. We debuted a few new tunes and some new
hair-dos. Our sincere apologies to Amy whose sweatshirt
accidentally got used for a hand towel after Renee stowed it
backstage for her. Apparently red hair gel and a white
sweatshirt do not mix. Oops...
WILLY'S ALE ROOM We're
tied up with private functions most of the month, but
there's a chance to catch us in Acton, ME on the 14th at
Willy's Ale Room. It's a new venue, so we'd love to
see some familiar faces to help us look good!!!
In case you missed it, new tunes for
May included:
In My Dreams - Dokken (a long-time request finally
fulfilled!)
Relax - Frankie Goes To Hollywood
Living After Midnight - Judas Priest
MAY We had an interesting
April, here's a look back:
-
We returned to Portland on the 12th, appearing at Bubba's
Sulky Lounge. Having played most of our Portland shows in
the Old Port, we were a bit apprehensive at finding Bubba's
in a much less desirable part of town. The tone was set
within seconds of arrival as we were accosted in the back
parking lot by a 20-something, strung out looking dude
wanting to see if we were interested in "purchasing" a CD
player for our car. It got more interesting during the
load-in as a constant stream of disheveled persons in
various states of drunkenness approached the van looking for
info on the band and a free shirt. The last pieces of gear
went into the club accompanied by a stream of obscenities
from a domestic dispute that erupted across the street. We
locked the van up tight.
Inside, Bubba's proved to be one of the more eclectic places
we've played. The place was decorated in a style we can only
describe as antique shop/early-20th-century-yard-sale-chic.
There was more flair than at your local Applebee's and
Chili's combined. And it was everywhere. On the walls, on
the floors, hanging off the ceiling, every available space,
nook and cranny was filled. Seriously. In the midst of all
this was the club's centerpiece, a fully interactive
light-up dance floor. How this fit into the overall interior
design scheme of the place, we're not sure. Still it was
pretty cool to see people rocking out to You Spin Me Right
Round on a light-up floor. Too bad we still weren't doing
Billie Jean.
It was by no means a sell-out, but we did have a respectable
crowd filling the dance floor all night long. Despite the
questionable location, a mostly young, hip and energetic
clientele filtered into the club throughout the night. As
well, we had several friends make the trek up to Portland to
see the show. Thanks a lot to them, we can't say enough how
nice it is to be playing a new place and see some familiar
faces in the crowd. The staff was very nice as well, giving
us as much help and direction as needed. Lastly a big
thanks to our pal Zach "Dingo" Taylor for coming up and
working the door for us.
It's not looking like we'll be going back to Bubba's, but it
was an interesting experience to say the least. Our quest
for a cool Portland club continues...
- Our last Kelley's Row Weekend until fall was a huge
success. The shows sold out well in advance and we had great
crowds out both nights! Saturday night was especially crazy
with tons of folks rocking the 80's Dress-code. We recorded
Saturday night's show and will be releasing it within the
coming months, we'll keep you posted!
- We wrapped up the month with a private party for the
folks at Hair Excitement. We had a great time and are
looking forward to more shows with them in the near future.
SUMMER 08 Along with
the weather, our summer schedule is heating up. We have a
lot of private functions keeping us busy through the warmer
months, but there will be plenty of opportunities to catch
us out and about. We'll be making our usual appearance
at the Rochester Night Before the Fourth Fireworks
Celebration. It's one of our favorite events of the summer
and your chance to see both us rocking a crowd of over 20K
and a pretty kickass fireworks demonstration. We'll be
making our debut at the Seacoast Science Center
Music-By-The-Sea Concert Series. And we'll be back on
the Thomas Laighton for a cruise or two. Summer shows
are always coming in, so stay tuned!
APRIL
Here's a look back at March:
-
It was another killer St. Patty's Day at the Dover
Brickhouse. People were filling in so fast we had to cut our soundcheck short as the
downstairs was at capacity and they needed to let people
upstairs so they could get more people in. Needless to say,
everyone was
ready to rock by 9. As expected
being a school night and all, things tailed off towards the
end of the second set, but thanks to the dedicated folks who
kept rocking right up until midnight. Check out some pics from Jim "The Picture Guy" Comfort on our
media page!
- We were back at the Sunningdale Golf Club on the 22nd.
Unfortunately, The Fabulous Watermans weren't rocking with
us this time around, but we had a great time nonetheless. Check out some
footage from the show over on our
media page!
- We had another great weekend at Kelley's Row to wrap up
the month. Friday night was comfortably full and Saturday
was packed to the gills. The Volta Energy Vodka folks were
in the house doing a promo and though we're not allowed to
drink we did get some cool swag. The Volta Girls were
excited about possibly seeing us at future shows in Maine.
Thanks! It was good seeing our old pal and former
Kelley's bartender Jamie Stevens out, though he didn't
arrive early enough to sing JUMP with us. Maybe next
time...
NEW TUNES We've been doing
some recording at our last few shows and have some new live
recordings featured on our player here at GAZPACHOonline.com
and at our myspace page. This month we have Corey
Hart's I Wear My Sunglasses At Night, Queen and David
Bowie's Under Pressure and Faith No More's EPIC.
Check 'em out! SPEAKING OF
MAINE We'll be be making our first appearance at Bubba's
Sulky Lounge in Portland, ME on the 12th. Please come
out and help us look good. The club looks pretty fun
with a light-up floor! How cool is that!?!?
LAST CALL UNTIL FALL AT KELLEY'S ROW April 25th and
26th will be our last shows at Kelley's Row until we pick
things back up in September. Kelley's will be focusing on
their deck business over the summer and we're looking
forward to getting out into some new rooms. To help us go
out in style, Kelley's will be having an 80's Theme night on
our Saturday Show. There will be prizes and specials. Come
dressed for 80's excess and walk out a winner!!!
LOOKING AHEAD TO MAY Come out and help a good
cause at the Rochester Elks on May 2nd. We'll be
performing as part of the American Cancer Society Relay for
Life Benefit. On the 9th, we're back to Newburyport
for a night at Michael's Harborside. Michael's is a
very cool club and not too far from the Seacoast.
We'll be in Dover on the last Saturday of the month,
performing at the Dover Brickhouse.
MARCH
Things picked back up after
our January post-holiday recovery! Here's a look back
at February:
-
We made our first trip into Boston for a
show at the Felt Club. Located in the heart of downtown, the
club was pretty high end. Multi-levels of bar with VIP rooms
and everything. We brought out the rock to the appreciative
crowd that was there, but apparently the scene in Boston
doesn't really get going until later. About the time we were
wrapping things up at 11 in the pouring rain, the bulk of
the crowd began to filter in. Oh well, guess that's the big
city for you. Hope they liked the DJ...
- On the 2nd we appeared at the Rochester Elks as part of the
benefit for David "Deli" Lane. Thanks to everyone who
made it out for a great cause. The Elks was rockin'
and it was great to see a lot of our Rochester friends who
haven't been out since the demise of Big Head's.
- We wrapped up the first weekend of the month with another
killer show at the Hampton Beach Casino as part of the
Penguin Plunge for NH Special Olympics. It's a huge treat to
play the Casino, even moreso when it's packed full of
people! The event was a big success as usual, raising
well over $500,000. Congratulations to all involved! We
worked out a much better set-up arrangement this year,
giving us the use of the entire stage for our show. Chris,
Gary and Ralph had lots of room to roam and interact with
the crowd. The only bummer was Renee had been sick all
weekend and couldn't make it out. However, as a special
bonus we did get our friend Danielle from the
WOKQ
Morning Crew up on stage to rock out Hit Me With
Your Best Shot. We met a lot of great people this year,
thanks as always to everyone who came up to say hello.
The funniest moment of the day came when an old friend of
Ralph's who runs the catering for the event came up to let
us know that one of his crew told him "this band was a lot
better than the one they had last year!" Check out a
video (shot from Jay's "keyboard cam") on our
media page!
- The Inaugural Valentine's Gala at the Governor's Inn in
Rochester was a huge success. We weren't sure what to
expect, but the room was packed and so was the dance floor
all night long. Success!
- Thanks to everyone who braved the snow to make it out to the
Jett Sett show at the Dover Brickhouse!
- It was great to get back to the Redhook Brewery on the 21st
for the WHEB Mountain Madness show. The Redhook was packed
from about the time we showed up to load-in and didn't let
up until the last note sounded at 10PM. We had a great time
rocking with Baker, Stoney and the folks from WHEB,
They've got some pics up on their site
here.
- Happy Birthday to our friend Kelly, who celebrated the big
3-0 on the 23rd. We played her surprise party at the
Rollinsford Legion and had a blast.
- We wrapped up the month with a show four years in the
making! It was Leap Year Weekend and Kelley's Row was on
fire. Both shows sold out well in advance, thanks a lot to
the folks that stuck it out in line to get in. We're
already looking forward to next month!
STOP THIEF! Someone broke
into our van and made off with Gary's blue G&L Invader
Guitar as well as his bag of GAZPACHO clothing. Anyone with
connections to any local music store please let them know,
we'd love to see it back.
ST. PATTY'S DAY It's an Irish tradition right up
there with Guinness and Kissing the Blarney Stone: The
GAZPACHO St. Patrick's Day Show at the Dover Brickhouse.
Yeah it's a Monday, but suck it up and come help us rock the
big stage. The last two years have been out of control,
let's keep it going!
FEBRUARY We took it easy in
January to recover from the holiday madness, here's a peek:
- We started off 2008
with a birthday party at the Dover Legion. Just
when we think we've played just about every possible
local venue, a new location pops up! We had a
great time!
- Our Weekend at
Kelley's Row debut was a huge hit. Both nights
were sold out with great crowds! It was nice to
see a lot of old faces out there! Happy Birthday
to Tina Mitchell, we got to pull out Sweet
Caroline for her big day! The Tripod stunned
everyone in the room with a costume change in the middle
of Separate Ways to full on 80's dress. Spandex
and everything. NICE!
Back to business in February,
starting off with a new Boston club. On the first we'll be
at Felt Boston, which appears to be one of the hot-spots of
Beantown. Check out their website, it's a pretty swanky
looking place (there's even a dress code to get in...) with
a lot of celeb sitings. They do 80's Fridays and we're
looking forward to rocking Boston. We've done a Boston
cruise before, but never an actual Boston Club show. It's a
quickie, 9-11PM and then they have a DJ spinning 80's music
afterwards. As always, with a new room we'd love to see some
familiar faces.
Benefit February You have several opportunites
to help us help out some great causes this month: On the 2nd
we'll be appearing at the Rochester Elks, playing a benefit
show for our friend David "Deli" Lane. He's fighting cancer
at the moment and his family and friends have put this show
together for him. The Rochester Elks is a very cool room
with a huge stage and dance floor, we were there in January
for our friends Aaron and Terry's wedding reception. There
will be food, cash bar and raffle prizes. On the 3rd we're
excited to be back at the Penguin Plunge for NH Special
Olympics. Though this is a private function we're very
excited to be rocking the Casino again. Lastly, we'll be
appearing at the Valentine's Day Gala at the Governor Sawyer
Inn in Rochester. $35 gets you
dining, dancing and us!
A Show Four Years in the Making We couldn't
resist the chance to play on a leap year, so we're bumping
our Kelley's Weekend back one week. We'll be at the Row on
Leap Year, Friday, February 29th and March 1st (so
technically it is still partially the last weekend of the
month...). Come out and make the most of it. There won't be
another chance to party on February 29th for four long
years!
We're back at it with new tunes, in case you missed it:
Danger Zone - Kenny Loggins
(I Just Died) In Your Arms Tonight - Cutting Crew
The Warrior - Scandal
Turning Japanese - The Vapors
You Spin Me Right Round - Dead or Alive
JANUARY
Happy New Year everyone! Here's a look
back at the Holiday Season:
- We kicked off December with a 50th
birthday party at the Orchard Street Chop Shop in Dover.
We may have ruined the dinners of some of the folks
downstairs in the restaurant, but upstairs the party was
so rocking they forgot to cut the birthday cake!
- Next up was the holiday party for the the Margarita's
Corporate team at the Stage Neck Inn in York, ME. It
took them a couple of songs to get going, but despite it
being a Tuesday night they tore the place up right
through the encore. It was a great start to our run of
corporate Holiday Parties. Thanks as well for the gift
certificates. We're looking forward to some great
Mexican food soon!
- We followed up the Margarita's party
with two shows at the Wentworth By The Sea Hotel for our
friends Pixel Media and Seaview Technologies. We had a
great time rocking the Wentworth for both parties,
thanks for having us out! Thanks as well to the
Wentworth staff who let us "borrow" some Wentworth staff
coats for the Seaview second set!
- In between the Wentworth shows we
were honored to provide the entertainment for our
friends Aaron and Terry's hometown wedding reception.
The official wedding was in Key West, FL, but this was
the big to-do for their families and friends who
couldn't make the trip. It was a great night, one we
were happy to be a part of. Once again, our
congratulations and best wishes to Aaron and Terry!
- We wrapped up December at Kelley's
Row on the 29th and New Year's Eve. Folks were a bit
distracted while the Pats were wrapping up their perfect
16-0 season on the 29th, but once that bit of business
was taken care of, things were rocking indeed! New
Year's Eve was an absolute BLAST, probably our best
Kelley's New Year's to date. The bar was packed and
ready to rock from the get-go. We even had people swing
in who had gone to other New Year's Eve Parties around
the Seacoast and found them lacking! We learned that
beads can be made into underwear (we're not kidding),
and it's possible to buy a bottle of champagne from the
bar on New Year's Eve. Wow.
To wrap up the holidays, this year's award for the best
Christmas card goes out to our friends The Tripod. You
may recognize them as the Vikings from our Halloween
shows. Freaking brilliant!

Weekend at Kelley's Row Don't forget, we'll be appearing
at Kelley's Row both Friday and Saturday at the end of
the month! We'll pull tunes from our extensive song
list, so if you can make it out you'll get a different
show both nights. We hope to see you there!
Back to the Beach We're are extremely honored to have
been asked back to the Hampton Beach Casino to provide
the entertainment for this year's Penguin Plunge for
Special Olympics on Sunday, February 3rd! Last year's
event was a lot of fun and we're excited to be back!
This is a private event, but if you're interested in
helping out we're putting together a TEAM GAZPACHO for
the event. Email Gary at raytone@comcast.net for
information. You can also visit Special Olympics of NH
here. It truly is a great cause.
Missed some old news??? Never fear, you can catch up on
the year that was here: GAZPACHO 2007 RECAP.
Return to Sender We're shutting down the electronic
mailing list for the time being, too many junk emails
coming in and bad email addresses getting returned, not
to mention the massive effort required to keep it up to
date. Word on the street is most people are keeping up
with us via the website and our myspace anyway. And to
think, ten years ago we thought having an electronic
mailing list was pretty state-of-the-art...
GAZPACHO CORPORATE We get a ton of questions about if we
play private functions, corporate parties, weddings and
the like, so we've put up a GAZPACHO CORPORATE page to
plug that aspect of our band.
We are still in the process of filling the rest of our
winter schedule, so be sure to keep checking in here or
at our myspace home for our latest shows. We have a bit
of a lull in January to recover after the holidays and
we'll be working on new tunes for the new year. Hope
to see you out!
