The release party at Crash Mansion was so much fun, it was great seeing so many old
friends we haven't seen in a long time. Crash has a great vibe and sound thanks to
Andrew Gerardi and his excellent staff and crew. Here's a Fly On The Wall video of the show.


We're back from Europe and it was an amazing trip on so many levels.
We loved seeing our friends that came out to see us. We'd like to thank all the people that
supported us:

We'd like to thank Rob from GMS Drum Co.
who hooked us up with Willem in Holland and made sure
Mike was playing the state of the art GMS drums during this tour.
Of course none of it could happen if it weren't for our fearless leader, Louie and his right hand man
Jack.
Reno and Lorraine from Lore Audio

The Level is an awsome club thanks to Rogier, Bjorn & Jan-Maarten, they made us feel welcome.

We'd like to thank: Lisa, Chantal, Percy, Osker, Jay-T, Kees, Erik, Igor, Maarten, Aalt,
Jean-Luc and Arnaud who did a nice video interview with us.

We'd also like to thank Julya and Erwin. We performed with them at the Wakker Home Of Jazz
in Eemnes. Andrie and Angelique always make us feel at home. Victor kept our heart beat.
Also thanks to Orleans, they are a class act and true gentlemen.

We made a bunch of videos while we were there, we can't help ourselves.
Here are four of them, more to come.

Barnaby Bye would especially like to thank: Jon Taylor, Mike Barberich, Dennis Folger and

Mike's Drum Solo sample


Ahmet Ertegün ( July 31 , 1923 - December 14 , 2006 ) was the Turkish -
American co-founder and executive of Atlantic Records , described as
"one of the most significant figures in the modern recording industry"
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ahmet_Ertegün
Ahmet discovered Barnaby Bye back in '72 and believed in us. There's a great story of how he came to
Kenny's Castaways to see us perform and invited us to his townhouse to convince us why we should
sign with Atlantic records. We got him to ride there in our 1950 Dodge, with his limo and body guards
close behind. He passed away in December and we will never forget what he's meant to us.
There's a wonderful documentary on his amazing life and we were very suprised to see ourselves
in it. Thanks again Ahmet, you rock!
