This news from the Zambonis' mailing list:
"About two weeks ago, The Zambonis held our second band meeting in 15 years. We decided to really prioritize our gigs — only play those for big money or big exposure. A few hours later, we're contacted by a band with an indie-Irish flair that sings great songs about pirates! The moral of the story is: band meetings are stupid."
That unbeatable double bill — songs about hockey and pirates — makes up tonight's entertainment at Connelly's Rock 45 (121 West 45th Street in Manhattan). It's ten bucks to get in and the Zambonis go on at 22:00 so as not to preclude your enjoying the Rangers/Caps game first.
Even if you've no intention of attending, you might enjoy this promotional
