Tales From East End Blvd:
Goodbye Shore Road Tavern

What a crazy, fun and emotional weekend Ive had with friends in Philadelphia PA. We were at a bar that all of us traveling musicians know, The Shore Road Tavern in Philly. We know it, we love it and if you're like me you can get sucked in here and never want to leave. I'm still here actually. I'm on tour right now but I keep coming back here on this run, using it as a central working point since there's an apartment above the bar that they use for the bands. Plus, it's just hard to leave this time. Last Friday night, March 27th 2015, was the bar's last public show. Very bittersweet. The line-up was Paul Waggener, Joshua Morningstar, Gallows Bound, Saint Christopher and then we did our set to close out the night. It was truly an amazing time. Wait, scratch out the word amazing...let's say "fucking magical". Even that doesn't describe it all that well. The owner, Mike Fiedler, celebrated the last show (which was also his birthday) with a smile on his face all night long. I think everyone in attendance had that smile. You could just feel the positivity in the room. Mike and his crew of misfit friends are the best of the best so you can't help but to smile and be happy while you're here. Their hospitality and loyalty make this place what it is. Couldn't ask for a better group of fans, friends and family.

Hellbound Glory - Streets Of Aberdeen Is The Sleeper Hit of 2014

Leroy Virgil's songwriting for Hellbound Glory's - Streets of Aberdeen, feels as if it's torn straight from the dialogue of a gritty HBO series and the characters are about to walk directly into your life. This sense of immediacy, purpose and emotion scratches at the fragility of the human condition and we listen attentively for an affirmation of our own reality. Hellbound Glory is up for Song of The Year on Saving Country Music, so do them a favor and go share your opinion about how great, Streets of Aberdeen truly is. This is a sleeper hit of 2014 and needs to be heard by the masses. Huge Congrats to Leroy for continuing to refine his craft.
