Derby @ the Aladdin Theater FEB 5th

Hi there.

This Friday night, Feb. 5th, Derby will be performing at the Aladdin Theater in Portland, OR.

We’ll be opening for the Crazy 8′s, and the show is being filmed for an upcoming television series by Front Row.  So, if you feel like you’ve got a little extra woot woot or yehaaa in you, come to the show and capture it on film.

This show is a little earlier than usual, doors at 7pm, and we’ll be playing at 8pm. More good news is that the show is all-ages (minors accompanied by parent) according to the Aladdin.

Lastly, we are very excited to perform as a 5-piece.  We have the super-talented Matt C. on keys, and it has really revolutionized our sound. It has overthrown the tonal governing body of the derby rock sound, and marshal law has been declared in derbyville.  It might be ruthless, it might be dangerous, but most importantly, it is now packed full of awesomeness.  So come join us this Friday at the Aladdin, and we will do our best sock-rockin.’

Much love.

Derby 1/20/10 update

Old Church photo taken by the wonderful Amy Seeley.  Thanks to everyone that was able to make it out.  I’ve been a huge fan of dolorean since moving to Portland over 8 years ago.  They make beautiful music that I truly love to listen to.  It was fun to share the stage with them and Rachel Taylor Brown (what a voice).  Thanks again to Matt Casebeer and Rian Lewis for playing.   It was wonderful to hear Matt play keys and have Rian on pedal steel.  We’re currently putting the finishing touches on 4 new songs recorded at the Secret Society and planning on a spring release.  Creeping_Climbing, Madaline, One’s a lonely one and Don’t believe in you.

Thanks again for stopping by and looking forward to a great positive 2010
