Steel Notes Magazine
October 2016
Like GrandDaisey in Tribeca for great French pastry and coffee !!.... As for dancing ... Wherever I hear a band or music playing , my feet start dancing ... Including in my Jeep !!
Andrew : As a struggling musician I try to keep within my means but that doesn ’ t always work out , so what I usually do is sneak into Lord Calvert , Kevin Lydon ’ s apartment when he ’ s not home and steal a few of his suits …. With regards to restaurants I Love Italian , Greek , Spanish , French , Japanese , Cuban ... did I miss any countries ?!?!? Bottom line is I love to cook and eat ! As for nightlife and dancing … I do a pretty mean Merengue and if we are not playing , you can catch me at the clubs in Astoria .
MBW : Do you have any advise to people who aspire to do what you guys have been doing so well ???
Don : My advice to aspiring musicians is simple and basic ... Find your song and keep playing it ... Never stop till the strings on your guitar break ... then put on new ones !!!
Andrew : Absolutely ! Be your self and never give up … we are the living proof . There is no magic formula , you need a vision , you have to pay attention to detail , and you have to be dedicated . It ’ s not an easy road , it takes a lot of hard work and then some , but it is worth it .
MBW : Is there anything we left out that any of you might want to add taking advantage of this moment while you have the whirled at your feet ???
Don : while I have the ' whirled ' at my feet ... I want to say that I love having the opportunity to write , sing , and play raunchy guitars in the BlackCats NYC right here in Manhattan , NYC ... The greatest Rock and Roll address anywhere !!!
Andrew : I would like to thank you once again for having us , I want to thank Steel Notes for putting this out , and I want to thank our loyal fans for “ Coming Along for the Ride !!” See you you all at the Sidewalk NYC October 28th !!!!
MBW : ... and my favorite question ... witch I reserve for the verry last ... If I could grant you three wishes ... what would they be ???
Don : If Marlowe B West can graciously grant me three wishes .... They might include ... Keep wearing those amazing Sparkly Suits when you Take Manhattan .... Leave a little of Manhattan for the Black Cats NYC to leave some Rock and Roll damage ... And keep all of our extended Family of Musicians , Poets and Photographers inspired by the Rk n Rl chaos that surrounds us !! We won ' t stop ... We can ' t stop !!!
Andrew : Hmmmmmm I only have one wish ... that everyone is able to live out there passion , because a life without passion isn ' t really a life at all .
