Noah Gabriel will be performing at River Lane Pub in Geneva IL on Saturday, March 5 at 9:00 p.m. The Noah Gabriel Band includes Tim Politte on drums, Gary Belniak on guitar, and Michael Addyman on fretless Alembic bass. Noah and the band will be featuring selections from the recently released album In Aurora and also will be playing new songs that are slated for the next album. Copies of In Aurora will be available at  the show.
 
River Lane Pub is located in Geneva on River Lane just west of the Fox River and north off Route 38, and features good food and appetizers. This is an intimate club that will fill up quickly and the good seating is usually there for those who get there a little early!

Here's yet another revision!
The River Lane gig mentioned one post up is on Friday, March 4th ... not Sat. March 5th.
(At least we didn't show up a day late for the gig and face an angry pub owner)

The Noah Gabriel Band will be playing at One East Wilson in Batavia, Illinois this Thursday night for St. Patricks Day. I'll be playing my fretless Epic again thru an F1-X into a QSC RMX-1450 into an Acme Low B-2.
 
Mike

Hey Mike,
 
Hope all is well.  What time are you guys starting?  I just might end up there.  It would be interesting to see this line-up, as opposed to the Pickled Beats.  If I don't make it tonight, take it easy and hopefully I will see a show soon.
 
Later,
 
Kevin  

Hi Kev,
One East Wilson is literally on the east bank of the Fox River in Batavia. We start around 9 pm. Typically at Noah's shows, the first set is acooustic with Noah (and Gary on a few tunes), then the whole band is on at about 10 pm for two sets. It'll be good to see you again.  
How's the FIRST Series 2 Bal K playing for you?
Hope to see you soon.
Mike

Not a Pickled BEATS gig but .....
I am going to be the house bassist at an Open Stage nite at Doug's American Bar & Grill on Indian Trail Road in Aurora this Wednesday night. I'll be using my Distillate through my Ampeg B-2R into an Acme Low B-2. We start around 9 pm with three tunes by the house band, then it's open stage time. (Roger, why don't you come up and show off your Skylark?) It's the same crew as used to do the Rudy's jam from a couple or three years ago.
 
Coming up, The Noah Gabriel Band will be playing at Chord On Blues in St. Charles on Friday May 6th. More Info to follow.
 ...playing again...
Mike

As promised, The Noah Gabriel Band (including Gary Belniak and me from Pickled BEATS) will be playing  at Chord On Blues in St. Charles this Friday, May 6th. We start at 10 PM. There is a $5 cover I'll be playing my fretless Epic through the house Trace Elliot system.
 
Mike

Once again The Noah Gabriel Band (with Gary and me fron Pickled BEATS) will be playing this Friday, June 10th at 9 pm. (The bar is named after its street address)

Don't forget the photographer, Mike.  Have fun
 
Sam

Thanks, Sam.
I'll try to remind the fellows to bring out a digital cam.
Mike

I think that it's standard procedure that if you let the club owner know that there will be an Alembic on stage, they will provide a photographer (or maybe it was just a pizza, I can't really recall).

Hi, Dave
At this point, it's always a nice surprise to show up and find out there IS a stage!
Mike
The grumpy missing the old days one

Mike,
 If I recall didn't the Old Town Pub used to be called The Geneva Mining Company? (this was in the early eighties). They used to have entertainment downstairs on very small stage. Mostly room for a couple of people and acoustic guitars.  
 
Keith

Hi Keith,  
I honestly don't know about The Old Town Pub's history. I've never been there. The NGB is a quartet (2 guitars, bass & drums) with typically 5 or 6 guitars on stands. If the stage is as small as you say, we'll have Tim the drummer set up on stage and the rest of us will be on the floor (no drunken band jokes). Given Noah's acoustic roots I believe you're quite possibly right.  
We've got several shows coming up over the next month or two, and Pickled BEATS will be back in action very soon.
Mike
