New Beginnings, etc.

Hello there intrepid Puttin' on the Ritz fans. We have been silent for some time now but that does not mean we have not been busy. We recently recorded some new tracks with the following lineup:

BJ Rubin - vocals
Kevin Shea - drums
Moppa Elliott - upright bass
Peter Evans - trumpet
Jon Irabagon - saxophone
Weasel Walter - keyboard

They are our best yet and will be made available in due time. I hope you are as excited about them as we are.

Some of you may be interested to know that I am playing Puttin' on the Ritz solo shows now. It took me five years to figure out that I don't need Kevin to get on stage and be funny, and thus I will be making my debut as a standup comedian on June 14th at the acoustic BBQ out at Fort Tilden -- the most beautiful beach in New York City. Be there or be square, etc.
