LIVE FROM ASTORIA

LIVE FROM ASTORIA

Now more than twenty years into it's pioneering journey, Gainesville, FL, natives Less than Jake - comprised of lyricist/drummer Vinnie Fiorello, vocalist/guitarist Chris DeMakes, vocalist/bassist Roger Manganelli, saxophonist Peter "JR" Wasilewski, and trombonist Buddy Schaub - have had their fair share of moments. For a band obsessed with interacting with it's fans, both online and after shows; for a band that is so concerned with making sure the fan gets the perfect experience, with well-known hijinks in every live performance; for a band with seemingly unlimited creativity in the form of physical products, from custom-made cereal boxes to unique vinyl packaging; and for a band that is so passionate, having the time to bring back good ol' memories is a crucial thing. The London Astoria was a music venue, now closed and demolished, can be still seen today as an iconic music establishment that helped to launch the careers of many rock bands and also played part in the UK success of many international acts.
