Pepper’s Ghost Countdown: 1 Week!!!

Only one week before I take off in a jet plane and fly across the country to see one of my all time favorite bands, Pepper’s Ghost, reunite for a special show at The Grape Room in Philadelphia. I’m starting to get nervous actually. I wonder what songs they will play. Will they have any new songs? Play any covers? Old stuff/new stuff? Will they play my favorites? I’m also wondering who will be there. The place is tiny…I hope we can all get in! I’m even wondering what they will wear. And this is when I know I’m over thinking things…

One week from now all these questions will be answered. I.cannot.wait.

For my final Pepper’s Ghost Countdown post, I will leave you with their music video for “4 Letter Friend”. Enjoy and I hope to see you next Saturday!

Pepper’s Ghost Countdown: 3 Weeks!

Happy New Years!! We are now only three weeks away from what will surely be one of the highlights of my 2011, the reunion show for my favorite local Philly band, Pepper’s Ghost. The show takes place January 22nd at The Grape Room in Manayunk. I hope to see you all there! It’s a bit sad really having what could very well be one of the best days of my year so early on. Really, it could all be a let down from here.
Or maybe this event is just indicative of what kind of year this will be. I think I’ll look at it that way!

So let’s really start this year off right…with some Pepper’s Ghost tunes! Enjoy!

Pepper’s Ghost Countdown: 6 Weeks!

I first heard Pepper’s Ghost when they came to play a show on my college campus. It was love at first note…during the soundcheck even. They were the first local band I “discovered” thus opening the portol to the world of live local music and beyond. Seriously, had I not stumbled upon this band, my life would probably not be what it is today.
This is one of the many reasons why I am so excited to see them play once again January 22nd at The Grape Room.

Pepper’s Ghost also offered me the opportunity to participate in my first concert shoot at The Trocadero the summer of 2006. Here’s one of the songs we recorded that night…

Pepper’s Ghost Countdown: 5 Weeks!

Every year, Pepper’s Ghost wouldput on a Halloween show. These were some of the best, most memorable shows. They even performed a Halloween song entitled “I Am A Ghost”.
Here’s a video from the Halloween show they did at Milkboy Coffee. Let’s relive this memory and prepare ourselves for some new Pepper’s Ghost memories created January 22nd in Philadelphia at The Grape Room…!!

SO EXCITED!!
