Postponing This Saturday's Decades Of Rock Show, More News Soon

So here's a story about the hurricane. Randy Franklin and the Sardines, and Jake Berger and the Mannish Boys are prepared to rock you like a hurricane on Saturday, but it's best to not Rock during a hurricane. I know, there's calm in your eyes, but you'll keep being blown away, so it's better to be somewhere safer where the feeling stays. So yes, we're postponing our inaugural Decades Of Rock show until a later date. Until then, we'll all be riding the storm out, waiting for the fallout. Spread the word, see you on the Weather Channel, and see you on the road.

Mannish Boys Show On Friday Has Been Rescheduled

Hello all-

The Mannish Boys have had to bow out of Friday's show at Smokey Joe's, due to an attack of the stomach flu. Temperance League is stepping in, and will bring the Rock. Sidewalk Bob still opens at 10pm, and Temperance will provide anything but at 11:15pm. Five bucks provides you with all of the merriment and wonder for the evening. I'll also be on hand, overseeing the show and answering all of your FCP questions. Look for a list of upcoming Mannish Boys shows in the next post. See you there, stay healthy, and rock on,

Jake Berger Is Back Onstage In 2018!

Some of you have been asking when I will be getting back to booking shows like the 60s Rock & Roll Reunions. After the successful Double Door Inn anniversary show, I’ve decided to give them another round. Charlotte’s own Mannish Boys will lead the local charge back to the garage, with shows at Smokey Joe’s on February 16th, April 27th and July 6th. Jake Berger, Rob Thorne, Greg James and JC Matlak will bring all of your fave garage rock, psych and R&B. And Charlotte’s own Sidewalk Bob and Mitchell Kearney will be opening the Feb. 16th show. Show begins at 10pm, and tickets are five dollars. 

But wait, there’s more! The Mannish Boys will be playing the Evening Muse on Sunday, March 18th for a special live recording event. Showtime is 7pm for this show. Get there early, get loud and make some noise, and you’ll hear yourself (and the band) on record, some (hopefully soon) groovy day. And yes, a certain photographer/show promoter/tambourine player will also be lurking about. Come by, say hello, and ask me if I’ve made any more progress on my next books. And yes, your favorite FCP books will also be available at all of these shows

More on these, and more shows coming soon. Spread the word, and see you at the Rock Show.

December 11th Show At The Double Door Inn!

Hello all-

I wanted to let you know about a show at the Double Door Inn on December 11th with several Fort Canoga Press connections. FCP authors Jake Berger and Daniel Coston will be playing the show as part of the Mannish Boys, and Coston will host and MC the show. The show also features reunions of the Buddy Ro Band and Loafers Glory, both of whom feature people that were interviewed for our There Was A Time book. The show will also be the last show at the Double Door Inn for many in the show,  and stay tuned for a their and final edition of the Double Door Inn book in 2017.

Thanks very much, and happy holidays,
