Good times last night at the Adaptive Path offices! As a highlight, Christopher Lambert came by and stole the life power of our lovely, candy filled friend here.

Engagement Parties and Pig Races...what a weekend

posted August 11th, 2008

Congratulations to Stas and Coreen on their engagement! We had so much fun playing during their party even though it kept us away from the snack table longer that we liked. A good portion of Porkchop Express is married or has been married at one time so we know what these heady times are like for the happy couple. Never let anyone tell you that you can't be in a small time country rock band after marriage because it just ain't true!

Also, Mr. and Mrs. CoCo went down to the San Mateo county fair this weekend and snapped this little doozy of a pictures at the pig races!

Intensified

posted August 4th, 2008

You may or may not recall that many moons ago we told you that Collin was given the distinct honor of recording backup vocals on a great version of a Desmond Dekker classic for Eric Friedmann and the Lucky Rubes. Well we just heard it this afternoon and it's as fun to listen to as it was to record. Listen to Intensified here.

There are a whole choir of Bay Area notables singing the "Rumbum balooey" parts so enjoy!

Also, Eric Friedmann or Alejandro Escovedo? You decide.

Good times at Cafe du Nord

The Cafe du Nord show was a total success! We had a great time with all the usual folks up to no good in the crowd. We also made a lot of new friends that night because if there's one thing that can be said about the fans of the Zac Brown Band it's that they sure ain't shy. Awesome to meet all of you!

See all the pictures from the show!

The computer generated English to French translation in the subject line is an homage to our show this coming Sunday at Café du Nord! This is one of our favorite venues in the city and we'll be opening for a nationally touring act, the Zac Brown Band.

See you there!

Secret Weapon

posted April 9th, 2008

Aside from all the normal reasons to never, ever miss a Porkchop show you can add this to the list: Our show at Hotel Utah on April 16th will feature the incomparable Sarah Nelson on fiddle and vocals.

She's been to a few practices now and has shown herself more than equal to the task of fitting in with a bunch of unrulies such as ourselves. The band has made a pact of never, ever playing "Devil Went Down to Georgia" and we ask you, the audience, to show similar restraint when making crowd-type vocalizations and requests.

Come on out to the Utah and welcome Sarah to the fold!
