Milk Boy Coffee 02.27.2010

Hey all. We had a great night at Milk Boy Coffee in Ardmore, PA just outside of Philly on Saturday night. Saturday was a special night for SR fans who came out, as we played a somewhat mellower set than normal, because of Milk Boy's more intimate type setting. We played for about a solid hour and a half, featuring some rare covers, and a couple older tunes that haven't been played in a while including a blazing version of Brand New Cadillac complete with a pre-song bass diddy by Dan that drew applause from the crowd (see link in set list for video). The night also included a four song acoustic set (a welcome break for Ian who has been playing on a banged up right index finger the past few weeks) including a laid back Life Was Never Finer, and a haunting version of Falling of the Edge.

Faded Pictures

Keeps Us Moving

SR fans in NYC make sure you make your way out to the Shrine Bar in Manhattan on Wednesday night for a 10 PM show. This is our first appearance at what we continue to hear is a great venue.

Also for those of you in the Northern Ocean County Area we have two announcements. First off if you have the time and means please join Stolen Rhodes at the Lakewood Elks on Saturday afternoon at 2 PM for a special benefit show for Lakewood native Glenn Williscroft (Dan & Matt both hail from Lakewood originally). Glenn has been stricken with cancer and this is a show to help raise money for him and his family put on the Brother Elks of Lakewood. A $20 donation is asked for at the door. We hit the stage at 4:30 along with our good friends the Skyelanders providing pipe and drum music in between our sets...and who knows what other surprises might arise.

Secondly; for those of you planning on checking out our Fans show Saturday night in Jackson, please note that it is canceled, as are all of our future gigs there. That is all. We will be back for a show at Surf Taco soon.

Also keep checking the MySpace, Facebook, and Reverb Nation sites for all SR updates, and for you tweeters, make sure you become a follower of SR on Twitter.

Also Stolen Rhodes would like to congratulate the United States on their complete demolition of the 2010 Winter Olympics. USA! USA! USA!

Hope to see you all this week.
