La Bec Rouge
Hampton, NH
  Notes: A fun night with several of SOAK's friends showing up for our midweek funfest. Myspace was well represented. On this night, the new, as yet still untitled jam was used to lead into Franklin's, bringing the already jammed out Franklin's to a full 25min. Soon, this will enter Dazed and Confused territory if this keeps up!

09/16/2007
Rock 101 WGIR (101.1 FM) "Homegrown"
Manchester, NH
  Notes: The guys got late word on 9/16 that they'd be the featured artist that night on Rock 101's "Homegrown" program. So, after the Sox blew it against the Yanks and the Pats anhilated the Chargers, somewhere around 12:30am, Rock 101 played SOAK's "She Don't Know" between Billy Idol's "Rebel Yell" and KISS's "Rock And Roll All Night". This was SOAK's first broadcast on a "real", terrestrial radio station. You can help make sure there's more to come! Be sure to e-mail Rock 101 at ioanis@rock101fm.com and request that they play more of SOAK's music on the station! Every request helps.
   

09/14/2007
Uncle Eddie's
Salisbury, MA
  Notes: A fun night with some new friends in MA. The amorphous Untitled Jam once again frames the show on both ends. The night featured well wishes to newlyweds in the crowd. They also needed a "wedding song" to remember and requested that the guys come up with something. So, for the first time in a SOAK, "full band" setting, Honey Brown Eyes was played. Who knew that for the 2nd time in a week, SOAK would have to spontaneously play "wedding band"?
   
Show Not Recorded

09/12/2007

Show Not Recorded

08/05/2007
Meadowbrook U.S. Cellular Pavilion
Gilford, NH
 

Notes: What can we say about this show? First of all, a big round of thanks to R.J., Bridget and the entire staff at Meadowbrook. We loved working with you and can't wait to come back. Also, special thanks to everyone that stopped by to see us and came to the show to support us.

As for Incubus, I wish we could say thank you to you as well, but that wouldn't be the chosen phrase, I don't think... For the people that did come last night, I believe it's only right that you get the story on what happened yesterday. As you know, Meadowbrook has area bands open up every night of their schedule on their 2nd stage. This was what we were doing.

However, Incubus took exception to the fact that we were slated to play to open up the night. They essentially threw a fit about it and, without going into the foolish details here, gave an ultimatum that either SOAK plays or Incubus plays. So, for the first time ever at Meadowbrook, the headliner cancelled the 2nd stage opening act. Incubus' reason for not wanting us to play? They stated that they didn't know what our political agenda was. At last I checked, we were playing music, not holding a political rally.

But, in the end, it worked out very well because we played a set to a larger crowd as soon as Incubus' own, rather short, set completed. So, that's what happened and I WOULD like to thank Incubus for opening up for us last night!.

Thanks again to everyone that was pretty fired up about what happened last night. Feel free to visit http://www.enjoyincubus.com and let them know how you feel.

The Shaskeen Irish Pub
Manchester, NH
  Notes: A very fun night with a good crowd in Manch-Vegas. Boston's On The Drop opened up the night in great fashion. The night closed with an audience participation singalong to a couple old Bon Jovi favorites. This night's set featured a tighter version of the previous night's improv. jam.... Still with improvised lyrics, but with a rather solid music structure.... Perhaps a new SOAK song is forming on stage....
   
Show Not Recorded

07/20/2007
The Sands

Other bands on the bill included : The Keiran Ridge Band, Dave Crespo, Singuya, LOURDS, and Omnisoul. Special thanks to Bryan, Gordon and all at Strawhouse Entertainment for putting on a great day of music.

Troy & Dawn's Wedding
The Ashworth - Hampton, NH
  Notes: Our fearless drummer Troy and his bride Dawn tied the knot and Troy couldn't escape the night without taking the stage with SOAK for a couple songs to end the night. This was purely for fun and was not a typical "SOAK Performance". We'll just leave it at that! Thanks to Duty Free for letting us use their gear!
   
There's a rumor these tracks were recorded....

02/16/2007
2 Orchard St. - Dover, NH
  Notes: An extremely fun night at the Brickhouse. We were scheduled with The Brown Hornets from Toronto as well as our friends LOURDS from New York City. But, the Hornets got caught in a blizzard near the Canadian border and couldn't make the show. The Brothers Dodd from The
Soupbone Throne
opened up the night with a killer acoustic set. Lourds Lane sat in on violin for Death March with the brothers for a great rendition. We played a little longer and LOURDS absolutely rocked a little longer and all was well for the night. The Brickhouse is absolutely the best club in the area to play or see a show like that with a killer sound system.
