It is actually in the Studio at Webster Hall which is the downstairs room and a much smaller venue.

The Master Plan killed last night at the Bowery Electric. Seriously underrated songs (I still think the first album is one of the best albums that has come out in the 2000′s) and Andy’s playing was great. But anytime I get the opportunity to see Keith Streng and Andy play, I try to take advantage of it. To have them both in the same band is terrific.

My 14 yr old posted this on the day…Today the closest thing I’ve ever had to a father died. Rich “Ritchie” Teeter had been struggling with Stage IV oesophageal cancer for four months (when he found out) when he died this morning around 10:00 of an infection as a by-product of chemotherapy devouring his immune system. Love you, Rich

It was considered the root of all evil. Just as it was with big band swing and the 50′s rock an roll in their generations. Boy have things changed now they are holywood stars. I am wondering if Dee Snider will do a tribute song tonight for Rich. I would love to go.
