That have been nice enough to go out of their way and promote me on the website www.frostclick.com ! Its because of sites like this, musicians like me have a chance in the music industry today.

Update coming soon!]]> http://mikefalzone.com/news.html#186 Tue, 30 Dec 2008 00:00:00 -0800 Fun With Honesty - Mike Falzone & the Peppermint Trick - News/Blog http://mikefalzone.com/news.html#185

Last night was our annual Christmas show at The Space in Hamden CT. As usual our amazing fans came out to help hark my own songs back to me and I love them for it. The band Terra Luna came out of nowhere to put on a great show, Zach Miko gets better every time I see him, Sean Fournier did well, and Against the Current is going to be singed tomorrow...it'll happen. Damn you talented, marketable, tiny girls.

I want to thank everyone for coming out...other bands and fans a like.

There is something about the Holiday season that makes you realize how lucky you really are. Forget being on MTV, forget being on the radio, being rich, or any of that crap...I'm thankful for the people that memorize most (if not all) of the words to my songs and fill the room with applause after we are done with each one. I'm thankful to know these people and not just know OF them. Most importantly I'm thankful for the opportunity to say "thank you" and have it be heard.

This isn't about me (or "us'...I have a band now hahha)...it's about you. And the way you make us feel after every show, be it good or bad. You have our undying love and respect as always.

Merry Christmas!

I will post a video of the set when it is up on youtube. WARNING: Mature audiences only....well...more like a STRONG PG-13.]]> http://mikefalzone.com/news.html#182 Sun, 30 Nov 2008 00:00:00 -0800 Fun With Honesty - Mike Falzone & the Peppermint Trick - News/Blog http://mikefalzone.com/news.html#181 Go to New York City and dont come back until 2:30 in the morning.

Step two...
Upon your return, stop at the nearest fast food restaurant to your house and eat as much as you can.

Step three...
Go to bed before that over achieving body of yours has the chance to digest.

Step four...
Wake up.

This is MOST useful for people who don't drink and would like to see what all the "fuss" is about..and complete idiots.

Music News:
I Just got back from NACA with my friend Jesse. For those of you not "in the know" NACA is the National Association for Campus Activities. They put on conferences all over the county so that performers like yours truly and spend all of there money for a booth in hopes to make it back in the form of shows for college kids. There are many fine stories from the weekend...most involving a giant bird suit, some involving Hal Sparks, others involving telling thousands of kids that Jesse was my back-up dancer. When it was all said and done we had consumed about 60 energy drink a piece and it was time for bed.

It is HARD WORK being nice/chipper for 3 days straight. I look forward to a full week of sleep and acting like an asshole.

-------------
As I said at the end of October we are taking it easy until December...there will be a handful of shows in November, but not many. Things look to blow up this winter. Me and the band (tentatively named "The Brass Rats") have been playing at least once a week and we have some great ideas to make the live show the best you've seen from us yet. All I can say is that you are gonna wanna come out to see us...its not gonna be your ordinary rock show.

Check the Tour section for upcoming dates including our Christmas Spectacularrrrrr!]]> http://mikefalzone.com/news.html#181 Wed, 12 Nov 2008 00:00:00 -0800 Fun With Honesty - Mike Falzone & the Peppermint Trick - News/Blog http://mikefalzone.com/news.html#180 ]]> http://mikefalzone.com/news.html#180 Wed, 29 Oct 2008 00:00:00 -0700 Fun With Honesty - Mike Falzone & the Peppermint Trick - News/Blog http://mikefalzone.com/news.html#179 ]]> http://mikefalzone.com/news.html#179 Tue, 28 Oct 2008 00:00:00 -0700 Fun With Honesty - Mike Falzone & the Peppermint Trick - News/Blog http://mikefalzone.com/news.html#178
I want to thank you for hanging out with me all month and all year! So far i'd say this has been the greatest musical year of my life and its not even over yet.

So I think im going to take a week or 2 off, go to NACA, go to the Giants game to watch them punish the Cowboys and come back super rested and better than before.

We have been working on some new songs at practice and I cant wait to play them for you guys!

If you haven't spread the free album around yet...PLEASE do so by clicking the red "get this" button in the middle.

GO GET CRAZY THIS WEEKEND...and I will see you shortly after!
