In February, the Larkin Brigade were honored to be put on the lineup for one night of Darkbuster's now legendary 2nd Annual Hometown Throwup.

In early March, the boys tripped down to NYC to play a packed show, with fellow Boston band, the Sprained Ankles, at one of Manhattan's newest and best venues on the punk scene, Otto's Shrunken Head Tiki Bar and Lounge. Chris Skel from celtic punk-rockers, the Skels, warmed up the crowd performing some of his his original tunes as well as some Skels' classics. The Larkin Brigade were also glad to have him join them singing "Broken Heart In Every Empty Glass."

On March 17 (the day some of you may recognize as St. Patrick's Day), The Larkin Brigade were proud to put on their 3rd Annual Evacuation Day Extravaganza at the Middle East Upstairs in Cambridge. The Hudson Falcons and Red Sails traveled up from NJ and NY, respectively, to help the crowd get their Evacuation on. The wacky-wonderful Boston folk-punk duo The Crumb Sullivans opened up the night.

The Larkin Brigade are now directing their energy towards, and encouraging you to check out, their next two scheduled shows.

On April 15, 2008, dirty reggae & soul virtuosos the Aggrolites, from Los Angeles, will be playing the Middle East Downstairs with The Larkin Brigade opening up the night. Don't you dare miss it!

On Friday, July 18, 2008, Darkbuster and The Larkin Brigade will join all of you and your friends on the Rock and Roll Blues Cruise, a booze cruise sailing out of Boston Harbor.

It's looking to be a nice spring and summer. Keep tuned in for future reports.
