HOLA, somos la ola, Bienvenido al ritmo el ritmo que Toca, Reggae, Soul, Salsa y Soca, los Boom Booms estan aka pa ke se pongan loka.

Hi everyone, the "real" new year is here with fall cooling the air. This year has brought us all the way to Brasil and back, to the bush of BC for treeplanting as always, out to NYC, Montreal and other eastern spots and back, to festivals in BC and some righteous shows back in Van this august, including the 2nd annual Block Party which was superfreshillintasticzing. Now we are straight chillin in town for a lickle bit, writing and arranging musica.

Last Summer we bought a '73 propane fuelled GM RV called the Scamper -or Boom Bus- painted it up and set off to heed the south winds call. Rolling up in our village on wheels - which at the outset was carrying 7 people- we'd visit the bars and set up shows, then spend the day meeting everyone in town to get them out for a throwdowncito. We played Mariachi caverns, beach parties, backyards, rooftops & cafes on all kinds of stages from San Fran to Managua to Bocas del Toro to Rio, soaking up all the flavor along the way and making some great friends

After Treeplanting season in may and june we took Scampy out to Pawtucket for a private party with Russian princesses we met in Costa Rica, haha, then went on to New York and our old home Montreal for some serious, serious business, with a cameo team captain appearance by our brother and Team Canada basketball player (by the way, we just qualified for the Worlds in '10!!!) Levon Kendall who added his keen organizational business sense to our keen lack of that to tighten, hone and streamline the Boom apparatus. Mid Summer we played some great festivals alongside the Five Alarm Funk homies and all around there was lots of kicking ass and taking names.

Folks, we wrapped up summer in the best way possible, the block party. TJ Hermiston, Debra-Jean Creelman, Star Captains joined us to blow the roof off my backyard and alley (which strangely has no roof so that quite a feat). We really did it up with the stage and had 3, count em, 3 levels, including one springy walkway and dancer platforms for partiers and the glistening-gold-skinned dancers. Really not here to mess around...Great times were had by all and the sound and other vibrations were rippling out across the land causing varying intensities of pleasure from a tickle to shivering spasms of elation and moments of complete conciousness. Righteous times continue=)

Check out some of the videos, we put together a little short film about the first half of the trip. the When the Night music video. and our sound bite on 90210!
