You know the joint- great food, cold beer, friendly faces. We start at 9- stop on by. On Saturday, we are proud to be a part of a fundraiser for Autism at Hadley Park in Hadley. 5 live bands, bouncy bounces for the kids, food vendors and so much more. We play 3-4, but the benefit runs all day from 9-5. Come on down and donate to a worthy cause!! 8/5/08-The Fizziks have been working delingently on new material, both original and cover, and plan to debut it this week! We are so excited to be playing at Savannah's this Thursday night from 8-11. First of all, we are playing right after Alive at 5, which is great because people already arrive in a partying mood. Secondly, we are teaming up with a VJ by the name of Brother Immortal who will be mixing in video to the music we are playing. This is a multimedia event not to be missed!! On Saturday, the band travels to Greenwich and the Old Station Inn. The last time we are there is was a blast and we expect nothing less this time around! 7/29/2008-Time is sure flying by; before you know it September will be here.

The shows this weekend were stellar and we are excited to be stopping back in Hadley on July 12th. We will have some new shows posted for the Old Station soon as well. The band will be expanding it's scope throughout the remainder of the year; focusing more on corporate events/private parties and less on club shows.

Well, we can't promise you that you'll be the only one on the road, but we can promise you a great time. Twin guitars and hypnotic lights lead the way as The Fizziks "quantum leap" from the psychedelic sounds of the 60's to the arena rock power of the 70's, through 80's pop and 90's grunge to some of the hits of today!! Join us Friday in Hadley at Melba Mae's and Saturday in Greenwich at the Old Station Inn. 6/17/2008-It was a bit slow on the lake last Saturday, but we had a blast anyway. Shari and Barry are such good hosts- if you have the opportunity stop down to Lyon's Lake and say hello. We will be back on August 29th. We have this coming weekend off and will spend it preparing new material. 6/10/2008-Our thanks go out to Savannah's for being such great hosts last Thursday night. They liked us so much down there that they booked two more shows with us-one each in July and August. This Saturday night we will be playing a new venue- the Lyons Lake Inn in Nassau. The show starts at 8. 6/3/2008-Hitting Alive at Five in Albany this Thursday? Stop down to Savannah's right afterwards and catch the Fizziks during a rare Thursday night performance. We were originally scheduled to play this Friday, but the management thought it better to have us play after Dennis DeYoung from Styx does his thing. We will be playing all of your classic/alternative favs from the past 40 years-don't miss it!! There is also a possibility that we will be playing in Plattsburgh on Friday. If that is the case, you all will be the first to know. 6/3/2008-Hitting Alive at Five in Albany this Thursday?

The band will be taking the next few weeks to compile some new material and vacation before the busy season starts. 4/1/2008- Happy April Fool's Day!! The shows this past weekend were interesting to say the least (and that's no joke). Joel has assimilated quite nicely so far and the response has been outstanding. This Friday we will be invading a new joint (at least for us) in Chatham called Peint O'Gwrw (yes that is the correct spelling). It's lovingly called the "Pub" by townies, probably due to the fact that last word doesn't have any vowels in it. Saturday night we will be heading back to Gloversville for a show at the new Upper Deck. 3/25/2008-MAJOR ANNOUNCEMENT- The band is excited to introduce Joel Marshall as our new second guitarist. Joel is a veteran of the local music scene and will add a new element to The Fizziks sound.

The show starts at 9 and the first 25 to sign up for our mailing list get a FREE DVD!!! 1/7/2008- This past weekend was packed with two great shows- the first at Melba Mae's in Hadley and the second at Imperial Lanes in Amsterdam. Melba Mae's is always a good time- the people are very receptive and supportive. We will be back in February. It was the first time we played Imperial Lanes and despite the ice, it was a great time. Jeromie, Chris (our marketing associate) and Vincent even found some time for bowling. The band will be back there in March.

Happy 2008!!! 12/26/2007- Man, that came quick, yes? Christmas has come and gone and now all eyes are on the next holiday. The nice thing about New Years is that there is no need to stand in long lines spending money you may not have on people you never see. The disadvantage is sharing the road on "amateur night". The Fizziks have solved that problem for you. Come and celebrate New Year's early with us at The Crooked Lake House in Averill Park (www.thecrookedlakehouse.com) from 8-12 this Friday. Located only 30 minutes outside of Albany, this joint has quite a history- specifically for being the upstate location for high stakes poker games with gangsters such as Legs Diamond and other debauchery during Prohibition. Join us and start the New Year off right!!! 10/23/2007-It was quite an adventure getting to our show on Friday night, both Jeromie and I got majorly lost. The next time we shouldn't have the same issues. This week we are off, but next week we will be in Cohoes and debuting our new keyboardist Evan Iannitti. 10/16/2007- Major changes are in the works for the band including adding a keyboardist. We are very excited about this new direction and will be keep you in the loop every step of the way. This Friday we play in Hadley- hope to see you there. 10/9/2007- Last Friday night, The Fizziks performed at The Casino in Hullett's Landing. There were a few obstacles to overcome (like blowing a fuse in our first set), but a good time was had by all. After taking this weekend off, we are off to Hadley, NY to play Melba Mae's on October 19th. 9/17/2007-This Saturday, the Fizziks will be performing in Burnt Hills at the Rolling Stone. See you there!!! | |||||||||||
