The BlackTails nail The Laurie Beechman show!!!

By all accounts the CD Release party held at The Laurie Beechman Fri Feb 26th celebrating the release of the bands latest record "Inside Man" was a success, despite the blizzard-like conditions in NYC.

The Laurie Beechman http://www.beechmantheatre.com/ which is located on W.42nd street in New York City, NY, features many great artists from the music and theatre world and sits downstairs in the West Bank Cafe. On this cold night some folks caught a glimpse of Neil Diamond http://www.neildiamond.com/ as well as other notables enjoying the refuge from the wintery evening.

The BlackTails took the stage a little after 7PM and performed for 1 1/2 hrs running through their new material from "Inside Man", as well as, several film noir spy hits like Mission Impossible , Peter Gunn and James Bond. The set also included favorites from their 1st record "Spy Lounge" such as "Up to no good" and "Off the rack" - the single that was responsible for putting the band on the national map due to a licensing deal with Dewars Scotch Whiskey Company. http://www.dewars.com/lda/
William Catanzaro thrilled the audience with his endless array of percussive and other noise making instruments while Dave Blacker brought the house down with some unbelievable solos in "Santa Ana" and Duke Ellington's "Caravan". Derek Landel took over while the band performed "Spy Lounge" with what some described as his best drum solo ever, dazzling his band mates and the audience for over 2 minutes before bringing the tune back in to a roaring close. Fredi Meli on bass, Mike Hashim and sax and Peter Farrell on vocals and keys rounded out the band with killer lines and booty shakin' moves throughout the set. And a usual , there were alot of laughs as the band had fun interacting with a very un-shy audience.
On Twitter one audience member tweeted:

# [Phil] Funny line from The Black Tails: Hand me down to your sister, don't throw me away. From the song, "Off the Rack"

Here's what folks had to say about the night:
"...music was terrific we thoroughly enjoyed Friday night." - Frances, NYC
"...unbelievable! Fun, entertaining and great playing..." -Steve, Portland
"....we had no idea what to expect, this was our first show, wow!, " - Julie, Washington DC

The band thanks everyone who braved the cold and snowy weather and looks forward to seeing everyone again down the road!!!!!!
