    did anyone see Two Saints (pretty sure this is their name) 
    play at Ralph's a couple weeks ago?
    The Visigoths opened for them, and I thought 'Saints were awesome!
    Kind of a Ramones style band, played some punk-type tunes, I saw
    the first half of their show and really liked them a lot.
    They supposedly were heading to Europe to tour after that gig

re: Two Saints

Hey! One of my best friends is the bass player in the band! I think I might 
have even put a note in here somewhere about them (maybe in the Boston band 
note? I forget...). Anyways - yeah, they're great!

BTW - two of the guys are ex-Heartbreakes (Johnny Thunder's Heartbreakers, 
not Tom Petty's).

    Hey Alan, is your friend Greg Stevens?
    He's currently playing bass in the band, and was invited to 
    Europe with the rest of the band. The British label Shakin' Street
    asked them to come to Europe after label head Allan Pilsworth
    heard their debut album "In Nomine Solis" on Boston's Beautiful
    Sounds Records. Pilsworth licensed 5,000 copies and distributed
    them throughout England, and nine other European countries, then
    lined up a grueling European tour for the band.
    	One place they'll be playing is the Marquis Club.

>    Hey Alan, is your friend Greg Stevens?

Is that how he's listed on the credits? His actual name is Greg Steinbaugh, 
but maybe he took a 'stage' name for the band....

He's a good guy - I'm glad to see them doing so well. And I love the band - 
one of the few that seems determined to keep the punk spirit alive!!!

I just ran into my friend Greg, who is the bass player for Two Saints, on
the Boston Common today (we were both there for the Scooper Bowl!). He said
that the band has a new demo tape out. 

Also, they have an upcoming show at Bunratty's in a couple weeks, and they're 
heading over to do their third tour of Great Britain next month (started July 
14th in Scotland, I think he said).

	I've liked what I heard from them in the past...they're another one 
	on the list to check out.  When you hear more about the Bunratty's
	show let us know... I recall hearing something about their new
	tape too.
