Our tour out west last week was excellent. It was the first time in two and a half years that the whole band went on the road together. I was a little nervous about that to tell you the truth but less than 30 seconds into the first song I looked around and realized that we’re actually better now than we used to be! This was a pleasant surprise.

Steve flew into town last night for our big hometown CD release show at the West End Cultural Centre this Saturday night.  Two nights of rehearsals and one big crazy show… I guarantee we’ll do everything within our power to make this one count.  If you’re in Winnipeg you should come to this show.

Otherwise, if you’re out in eastern Canada I have a tour booked and will be seeing you all at the end of May! I’ll post those dates in the next few days.

Welcome to my newly revamped and relaunched website!!! As if things weren’t exciting enough in my world these days with a new record coming out, a video in the works, tours coming together and more recording time booked… I want to thank Rob at Smallman and especially Derek Hogue at Amphibian Design for their efforts getting this website upgraded.  Please have a look around.

There’ll be a new song from Mr. Invitation posted here and on our myspace site in the next few days… it’s called Outside Edge and features a Steve Bates guitar riff over Jason Tait beating the shit out of his vintage drum kit like only he can.

More tour dates to be announced in the next few days as well!  Stay tuned.

It’s finally March! Another marathon Winnipeg winter in the home stretch and only 30 days until this new record of mine comes out. Our tour dates are finally solidifying too, please check the shows page for details.

There should be a new song up on our MySpace page soon. In the mean time, I’ve been keeping busy playing in a few side bands and one of them has a show on March 13th at the West End Cultural Centre here in Winnipeg. My friend Pip Skid, one of the most uncompromising, hardest hitting and original artists in Canada is releasing a new record that night and I have the honour of being in his live band and am a guest on a few album tracks. More details on that here.
