December 8, 2008 The Moondogs receive nationwide radio play! Our CD, Long Road to Your Heart, received radio play today on the Lex & Terry Morning Show, a nationally syndicated show from Dallas station KEGL 97.1 FM. If you're familiar with their show, you know what they do, which is critique the music live on the air, good or bad! If they like it, they play the entire song and praise it and the band. If they don't like it however, they interrupt the song and proceed to verbally abuse it, along with the CD packaging, the pictures on the cover, the band members, and even the clothing they're wearing, If that's not bad enough, they then put the CD through the shredder, with a microphone nearby! Believe me; they can be pretty brutal (but it usually is pretty funny!) Although they didn't exactly give us rave reviews on the two songs they played (Anthem and Dawg), they didn't put it through the shredder, so we're pleased about that! We've always been told any publicity is good publicity, so we'll take it! After all, not many unsigned bands get nationwide radio play!
September 14, 2008 We were very sad to learn Hurricane Ike had destroyed a historical place that we had the privilege of playing at, The Balinese Room in Galveston, Texas. We were there in January of 2005, and we'll always treasure the memories of that gig! For pictures, go to the gallery page and click on "The Balinese Room."

May 1, 2008 WE'RE BACK, FINALLY! Now that all the pieces are in place (once again and for the final time we hope), we're starting to schedule gigs again. Our first one back will be Saturday, May 24th at John B's in Arlington (Pantego actually) beginning at 9:00 pm. For a map, go to the "Schedule" page. We haven't played anywhere locally this year, other than private engagements, so we're eager to get back at it. We've always played at John B's on a Friday night, that's why we're excited to get in there on a Saturday! We really want to fill the place up, so we're counting on you to come!
April 24, 2008 Most of you know Gary has been playing drums since we recorded the CD last year, but his other love is the acoustic guitar, so we've been actively looking for a drummer of Gary's caliber to take his place so he can return to the guitar. After months of looking and numerous auditions, we've finally found the drummer we've been hoping would come along, and we couldn't be more excited; his name is Steve Choate. The funny thing is that Bryan has known Steve for over 40 years, they lived across the street from each other as children! Steve comes to us with decades of experience and is well known locally as a talented musician. Check him out on his MySpace page, you t |
