Tony Tedesco’s Roadside Repentants

You will not find any apologies here. We play becuase we breathe. Until we get in the studio, we'll be posting cuts from live shows. our first show as a band was at the Saint on 11-29-06. Will there be tracks put up here with occassional missed notes, fucked up intros, flat vocals,out of tune guitars? fuck yeah there will be, but dont expect any apologies. Life's too short. No matter how good a band is, life always has the potential to get in the way. There ain't no waiting on perfection when you are grabing life by the balls. Besides, if you aint fuckin up, you aint pushing the envelope, and if thats the case you might as well pack it in as an artist...buy a black velvet elvis paint-by-numbers, throw on the tv and wait for sleep to come so maybe you can dream what it was like to take a chance. So take a listen and enjoy. If it dont sound good, you aint had enough to drink.****For the record: While you hear me say "Ladies and Gentelmen, Rick Barry' as we are starting "Roll with the pages", please do not be confused. Rick is not playing with us on that one (yet)..If you listen real closely, while Homer's busting my nuts about 'Having to wait for the lead guitar player', you can hear rick say "Yeah dick Hurry up!'... Thats right, rick was right at the edge of the stage like a glassy eyed, wet pantied, knee sock wearing catholic school girl for some of our set...enough to almost make me feel like a rock star..or at least as much as an old short fat guy can feel like a rock star**** We played a tremendous show at the starland ballroom to 2100+ people. It was great until that whole ting with the sound guy happened. Regardless still a great gig. Leading up to that gig and since then we have gone through some overhaul. At this point, we have the legendary producer/engineer/author/and all around epic smart ass Joe harvard sitting in with us on bass. Joe did a bunch of gigs on lap steel, but is now filling a role sorely needed. Also on the 'sitting in' list is one of NJ's best damn songwriters, Keith Monacchio of the Commons, playing some acoustic and providing backup vocals. We will be recording a demo shortly with this lineup.
