Emilio's Fiddle

Hello all.
Emilio here with some news.

I've commissioned Barry Dudley to make me a custom 5 string fiddle which is near completion! If you've never heard of him and are shopping for a new fiddle TRY A BARRY DUDLEY FIDDLE! They are the best fiddle I've ever played/ heard!

Here's his website: www.dudleyviolins.com
He sent me some pictures of my fiddle and it looks great! Hopefully I'll be able to pay it off and be able to record on the album with it!


Speaking of fiddles, I'm switching to using only 5 string fiddles.
That being said, I'm selling my very nice 4 string fiddle. It's a great instrument and has a beautiful tone. Here's some information on it.

You are looking at a full size Andrzej Swietlinski (Polish maker) Stradivarius Violin Copy

Made in 2007 in Nowy Targ, Poland

Model Number 100023

This Violin was purchased in December 2007 and looks like new. The Violin was appraised by Paul Wiessmeyer (www.bostonfiddle.com) for $5000. I am selling it for $4400. This is a great violin for serious advanced student or a professional. The Violin has nice narrow flames all around the ribs, sides, neck, scroll, and back. Two-piece back, and new sound post. The violin has Heart style rosewood pegs with gold trim and pin (different than in picture), a nice rosewood hollowed out tailpiece, for extra projection and resonance. It has a dark orange finish and very low action. Super easy to play. I just put on new Larsen violin strings.

The tone of the violin is loud and projects nicely. Comes with Core violin case. (this is the Fiddle)

Please contact me at dublinfreepress@gmail.com with any questions. I'll only accept PayPal payments and free shipping to the US! (If you're serious in buying please put "Interested in your Polish Fiddle" in the Subject)

Enjoy your weekend! Hopefully we'll see you at our shows next week! See www.dfpband.com for more details!

Cheers,

Baseball Season!

Well It's Baseball Season Finally... Well it has been for a bit. haha

Most of the band lives near Fenway park and it get crowded and crazy here on game nights!

Emilio is a Houston Astros fan and Dan is a SF Giants fan... ironically they both played their 1st 3 games against each other. There were best made for those games and Emilio is now down $30!

The Astros are having a foul season so far, although they did win their game tonight! A good come back since last night they lost terribly to the same team! (the Chicago Cubs, Emilio likes them too! haha)

Baseball is a great sport and I think most of us enjoy watching it.

I'm just glad it's back! It's times like this I miss having cable to watch most of the games I want!

Have a great weekend everyone!

New Music

It's been a while since anyone has posted, but here's the latest.

So we have rehearsal for our final two shows this semester. Then we are taking a short break, but we'll still be working on music for the album.

Check http://www.dfpband.com/News_%26_Shows.html for information on our 2 shows coming up.

As far as the album goes we've made some progress on filling up those slots we had free. Emilio has written a vocal number and Kyle is working on one as well.

Emilio actually wrote his last night. He got his inspiration from a song called "This is the Life" by Amy MacDonald.


Can't wait so share the album with you all!

Enjoy Amy MacDonald's song. It's a good one!
Enjoy the day!
