   About Chris Burke
Chris Burke plays keys (piano/organ), bass, guitar, accordion, tuba, and some other weird things. He is into writing and recording music in a range of styles. Seeing as I am, in fact, Chris Burke, I will hereby stop referring to myself in the third person, and assume the first. I mainly run around with the Geoff Hartwell Band, and the Messengers. I also get to work with Rich Kelly, Petey Hop, Eric Haight, Shane Kirsch, John Federico, Marc Beladino, Space Cabbage, et al. I am currently involved in a couple of original projects, the fruits of which I hope to share w/ anyone who cares to listen. I am sort of allergic to chocolate. The thing is, I can eat a Snickers bar with no problems, but if I have real dark chocolate, or chocolate cake with fudge or anything, I get a headache. Sometimes I even get nauseous and vomit. ..>

Lots of trouble was caused, but Jodi wins the prize....she had to be escorted back to her room by several crew members after not remembering where she was!

Guinness brewery workers are threatening to hold their first strike in the group’s 250-year history! Ballot papers proposing an all-out strike were issued on Monday morning by the Guinness Staff Union (GSU) to its 800 members.

Hey Chris,

Thanks for showing us yours! We've got a bunch of gigs coming up. If you've got time, we'd love to see you at one: this coming Wed (4/16) at R-Bar (in Manhattan), or next Fri (4/18) at Crash Mansion.

Putting the "sick" back into Classic since mid- to late-2007.
