The crowd in front. Not you guys in the back (but thanks for coming). To those of you in the crowd yelling 'Skynyrd', we don't know any of their tunes. But you peeps in front, yeah, you're mint!

Adam & The Waxmen are based out of Portland Maine. They originated as a 4 piece in late 2006, playing their first gig at Chicky's Fine Diner in Westbrook in November with Dan Waxman and Friends.
Their debut full length CD is now out! So, that means the band is busy playing shows around Portland. Keep an eye out for these young gents on the road soon brandishing just what you want for a night on the town... a little soul, a little love, some peace, and a whole lotta sweaty, dirty, funky rock.
Come check them out! And of course, thank you for the opportunity to watch you play and videotape an excellent performance at the Port City Music Hall.
Maybe ("next time") Emmis G will practice all together! :D
okay, I did exaggerate-- I've only been singing for 20 years. But I've been *alive* for 22. :) should've done Bowie instead of Blondie so I could hit the notes.
