Tons of Turn
The band has been very busy lately, therefore I have been too. They are gearing up hard for their big show (the final 13 bands out of 2,000) at Webster Hall this Saturday 6/28. If they win, they are headed to Germany to play at a music festival in August in front of about 100,000 people. Come down to Webster Hall on Saturday at 5pm to show them some love. They absolutely deserve it! If you want to hear some of their music, you can find them at www.rocktheturn.com
Been following them all over the place, shooting away. Here are some fav shots from the three most recent events I shot for them; their radio appearance on WMJC 94.3 (the were live on the radio last night- but you can click here http://unlabeledmusic.net/engine/ to hear the show online. Mayday is my new favorite favorite! Seriously, you gotta listen.) Then their party with some new whole band shots, and finally some shots from the street fair in town on Sunday. There are three new albums on the left with all the pictures in them, so take a peek if you’d like.
The radio show was so fun (cool to be in on the inner workings of a radio show) and the DJ who did the interview used to be on my favorite station which is now off the air. WLIR. They played the BEST alternative stuff and it’s all I listened to in high school and college (well, when I was home from college). And I totally remembered him, too. Rob Rush. He was nice as could be.
A funny story from this one. It may be one of those "you had to be there" but Pat decided he was going to be photographed with a fork all the time. So one of his friends said that once they are famous, girls would be throwing forks up on the stage at him instead of underwear. Then I said you could get shirts that said "I forked Pat!"
And some from the street fair yesterday. Pat actually sang (he usually dosen’t too often) and I even caught it. Along with some new goofy faces. Brian has been playing shows like crazy- bars, promotional events, etc. He’s working so hard and really deserves all the sucess that will be coming his way. However, all this singing and playing brought out the mommy in me and I had to tell him that he’d better rest up before the big show. Couldn’t help it. Sorry, B.
Really, they are just a great bunch of guys and seriously talented. I am having the most fun being "with the band". Thanks guys (you too Geoff and Uncle Bro) for everything!!
And one other thing…HI UNCLE JERRY (aka officer friendly)!!!

Just love it when uploading the pictures and you come across something that looks like this:
Yeah, you know you love him, too! Can this kid pose or what. Perfect.

Brian of The Turn
Brian did an acoustic set at a local bar (RJ Daniels) last weekend, so I actually took John with me. Those of you who know John, know not much impresses him…but he was way impressed! He got to meet Brian’s family and listen to Brian for a while so that was nice for all of us. And he really, really liked it. Enough to go back and listen to him/them again! Believe me, it’s a big deal!Anyway, Brian did a terrific job that night singing lots of hits and some great Turn songs as well. Next up for the Turn- a live radio show! They are going to be featured on a local station WMJC 94.3 on a show called "unlabled", where unsigned bands play and are interviews. If you are local to Farmingdale, the show will be broadcast this Sunday 6/22 at 10pm. If you want to listen to it online Sunday (or whenever) the website is http://unlabeledmusic.net/engine/ Pictures from the radio coming soon…

starting to wrap it up
Last week (okay, so I’m pretty behind and you just know how I love that) was Timmy’s last day of school. We went in a little early to have a little end of the year goodbye. His teachers this year were just awesome- big ole piles of lovin. Really. They just smooshed up all the little ones in their class with tons and tons of love. The year couldn’t have been any better for Timmy- he loved every minute of school and really progressed so well. I can’t wait for next year- that’s how great this school is! And no, I didn’t send him to school all dirty like that. They had some icecream to celebrate, which Timmy decided was better to wear than to eat.
(sorry all the pix are blurry- I think I was having an off day!)
This week we also saw the end of Tumbles class at the rec and CATS class (CATS pictures coming soon). Now we just have to get the big boys to finish up school and get to the end of OT and PT for Timmy- all next week. Then it’s really SUMMER BABY! Almost…
