U277 – Live at Lunch

Dear friends, family & fans,

Here at U277 headquarters we’ve received a few emails from folks over the last month or so wondering where the heck we are! Well some of you know, but for those who don’t I’m happy to let you in on the fact that U277 has been (collectively) on paternity leave for the last few months. Please join me in welcoming our two newest fans:

Isaac Scott Bendickson – born to Aaron & Sarah on April 2nd
Sophia Anne Moffitt – born to Mike & Katie on May 30th

Nevertheless, in the midst of expanding families, we have still been able to squeeze in some rehearsals, learn a few new tunes, and we have a show coming up this week! Come join us for a free outdoor concert in Bellevue on Thursday at noon when we appear as part of Downtown Bellevue’s Summer Concert Series “Live at Lunch.”

We play from 12 noon until 1:30 pm at the Bellevue Galleria.
It’s outdoors, it’s family friendly and it’s free.

Hope you can make it.

Robin Moxey, rockin’ the Bogner!

So, I’m checking my email the other day, minding my own business and what should appear in my inbox, but a newsletter from Line 6. I usually just skim over their marketing, see if there’s anything worth checking out and then send ‘em to the old bit bucket, but this one I noticed was mentioning something about the Bogner Alchemist. Hm… that’s interesting, my good buddy and bluesman extraordinaire Robin Moxey just started playing a Bogner so I go ahead and click the link and sure enough… there’s Robin on the Bogner website trading licks with a few other guys showing off the amp.

Who said there’s never anything useful in junk mail?

Edge & The Echo

I just had to share this video of Edge “showing off” his guitar rig and technique. He makes it look so easy…
