Rock'n On The Runway / Arizona's Children's Charities

Howdy Gang!

This past Sunday I had the pleasure of reuniting with some fellow Rock and Roll tour mates John Regan (Peter Frampton, Damon Johnston (Alice Cooper / Black Star Riders), old friends Billy Burnette (Fleetwood Mac), Jeff Carlissi (38 Special), Rob Arthur (Peter Frampton) and made some new, drumming legends Danny Seraphine (Chicago), Liberty DeVito (Billy Joel) the remarkable voice of Jeff Adams (Starship), and a couple of Country musics finest, up and comer and on the rise Jeremiah Richey as well having the extreme pleasure of singing a duet with the beautiful voice and talent of Bonnie Bishop. Both of which have brand new CDs out and a couple of Texans I may add! Must be somethin’ in the water in the Lone Star state:-)

Congratulations to Arizona’s Children’s Charities for throwing an amazing event and fundraiser. We were a small part of a huge effort for at risk kids and it was “All About the Kids” at the end of the day. I wish you great success in the future and here’s to a world where all children are always loved and looked after.

Thanks for the invite!

RIVERSIDE

RIVERSIDE

by AUGERI / HOLLAND / PULLMAN

Now these four walls, they look the same

As they did back then

When they did back when 

Before we danced

You know they haven’t changed a thing

And these windows could sure use a good cleanin’

You can’t tell the night from the day

Lookin’ in or out

Unless you look a certain way

I’m lookin’ back on the times when we made love

It wasn’t all that long ago

I could see it in your eyes

They’re the windows of your soul

Down by the riverside

Everybody’s welcome

Down by the riverside

We can be ourselves

Down by the river

With a song in your heart

Without a care

Down by the river

Now this damn road seems endless

Take it up or down

Ride it in or out

North or South

Swear we’ve been on it for days

And no matter how far you take it

If your heart don’t feel 

You’re just spinnin’ wheels

You got to go a different way

I’m thinkin’ back to the times when we made love

It wasn’t all that long ago

Yeah, I could see it in your eyes

They’re the windows of your soul

Down by the riverside

Everybody’s welcome

Down by the riverside

We can be ourselves

Down by the river

With a song in your heart

They’ll be love in the air

Down by the river

It’s ebb and flow

It’s current slows with time

What we didn’t know

We left it up to love

Whoa Yeah! 

Whoa Yeah!

Whoa Yeah!

Hey, Hey, Hey , Hey…

Down by the riverside

Everybody’s welcome

Down by the riverside

We can be ourselves

Down by the river

With a song in your heart

Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey

Down by the riverside

Whoa Yeah

Down by the riverside

Whoa Yeah

Down by the river

With a song in your heart

They’ll be love in the air

Yeah, Yeah, Whoa

With a song in your heart

We’ll make love over there…

Yeah, Down by the river

IN THE MOMENT

IN THE MOMENT

by Steve Augeri

I’m always caught in yesterday

Or else I’m dreaming of tomorrow

And just for once I’d like to say

My heart and soul’s right here and now

You’re at the end of my rainbow

If I could just live in the moment 

I know that you are ‘cause my heart says it’s so

You’re at the end of my road

There is a time and there’s a place

It doesn’t have to last forever

A memory time can’t erase

Deep in the corners of my mind

You’re at the end of my rainbow

If I could just live in the moment 

I know that you are ‘cause my heart says it’s so

You’re at the end of my road

You’re at the end of my rainbow

If I could just live in the moment 

I know that you are ‘cause my heart says it’s so

You’re at the end of my road

You’re at the end of my rainbow

You’re at the end of my road

Aaron Dilks

It is with a heavy heart that we say goodbye to the one and only Aaron Dilks.

I came to know Aaron as Journey’s Tour manager for a number of years. His appearance told only part of the story, the part that if the situation would arise, it would have been dealt with … and swiftly. The other side of this man was that of a funny, warm, caring “Teddy Bear” that was absolutely over the moon about his daughter and the profession in which he loved to work. And if you really knew Aaron there was his adoration for his dog:-)

As fate would have it, I had just reconnected with Aaron but a mere two weeks ago and was so looking forward to hearing that Baltimore accent again and see him smile that wry smile that only Aaron could smile. I’ll miss the way he made me feel like his little brother rather than the other way around. Coincidentally I heard of his passing on the runway flying out of O’Hara in Chicago, the city where he not only put us up in the chicest boutique hotel but also turned us on to the finest sushi in town. Coolmotherfucker:-)…, always.

Good-bye Double AA.

Good-bye my friend.

My most sincerest condolences to the Dilks family.

P.S. Your Broad Street Bullies are still a bunch of pussies!

10/25/14 Blue Ocean Music Hall, Salisbury, MA

Dear Blue Ocean Ticket holders and SAB fans,

We sincerely apologize for the unfortunate rescheduling of the Blue Ocean Music Hall show.

Just shy of 2 weeks prior to the event, the promoters and venue felt it best to move the date to a later time because they were unable to secure radio spots to properly advertise the event.

We can only imagine the disappointment to our fans and we're deeply sorry if we've caused any hardship and inconvenience in the matter. No one was more disappointed then myself and the rest of the band.

We do however look forward to securing a date in the warmer months, preferably during the summer vacation time frame so that we might take advantage of the beautiful New England shoreline and enjoy everything Salisbury Beach has to offer.

Again, please accept our absolute sincerest apology and we hope to see you all in the summer of '15!

Steve A.

FACES

Faces

(Augeri / DeRossi)

Love is the diamond that grabs the light 

Sends it back in many different ways, oh yeah

Love is the reason we walk the night

Searching for a weakness in our prey, oh yeah

Guess it's time I learn to read the Faces…

Of love

Of love

My love

She shows no emotion that I can see

Nothing that her eyes could give away, oh no

She's known the game, yeah she always plays

And if I'm holding Kings then she has Aces, oh no

I think it's time I learn to read the Faces…

Of love

I've been going through so many changes

My love

I've been going through so many changes

oh yeah, yeah now.

(Mustang!)

I've been going through so many changes

My Love

I've been going through so many phases

Of Love

I think it's time I learn to read the Faces

Of love

Of love

My Love

Now, my Love…

Of Love now...

I think it's times to read...

To read the Faces

FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE

Tell me Baby

What's on your mind?
Thoughts of the hopeless
So hard to define

Love, it's a blessing
You soon will find
A promise we both can share
Just all in good time, oh...

You know that we can't erase
A page in a story left untold
When shadows fall
Memories unfold

Oh.... For the rest of my life
I will be holding on
Through the darkness and light
We'll rise above it all
At the end of the day
The promise of love stood tall
From the love that we made

Halfway baby,
Let's compromise
Put an end to this foolish game
It's just you and I

I'll be waiting
Until that time
My hopeless romantic ways
Have served me just fine, oh

Only the lonely
Facing whatever fears we hold
We'll rise above
And get through it all, oh

Oh.... For the rest of my life
I will be holding on
Through the darkness and light
We'll rise above it all
At the end of the day
The promise of love stood tall
From the love that we made

Let your heart remember
Let the heart recall
You know it's only love now after all...

Oh.... For the rest of my life
I will be holding on
Through the darkness and light
We'll rise above it all
At the end of the day
The promise of love stood strong
From the love that we saved

Oh... For the rest of my life
Oh...
Oh... For the rest of my life
Oh
