All the Young Dudes and Dudettes,
We're trying to piece together a few shows to make up for our "lost to the pseudo-blizzard of 2009" show. We are going to be performing on January 14th, 2010 at the Middle East Downstairs. Not much has been told to me except that we are confirmed for this date and that it is expected of us to rock the S!@# out of the stage. Apparently they're taking extra insurance on the night for fear that the stage will be less structurally sound upon the completion of our set.
That being said, get your Thursday night and Friday morning prepped and ready to go...so there's no excuses from the bossman....
Happy New Decade and Rock On All Year Long!

Long Needed Update AND Final Show of 2009 Details
Here it goes...
This is the LAST show that Full Tilt will be performing in 2009. We've got a ton of things planned for 2010, and we need to take the time to focus on that so that we'll be hitting it hard come January of next year.
That being said, there's been a ton of things happening in regards to the band.
First of ... in case you didn't know... Mitch is no longer a member of Full Tilt. We wish him well in his future endeavors.
With the bass void still lingering, we turned to our good friend Wayne Williams to step in and be the guy to fill the big shoes Adam left. He may be quite a familiar face to those of you who have seen us perform in the Worcester area as we have played along side his other band PROMISED EDEN
This has given us an opportunity to start the writing process and we anticipate an EP to be released in the next six months will a few new songs on it. We'll be testing some of these songs out at some of the gigs we have in the next few months and we can't wait to get more feedback on them from you, the fans.
Furthermore, we have signed with a management company out of LA. This will give us the opportunity to not only spend some time with our FT fans out on the West Coast. Also, it gives us some help with getting more cool opportunities to share our music with the world. Who knows, you might even hear us in a TV commercial, show, or even on the big screen...*wink* *wink*
That being said, we're very pleased to announce our FINAL show of 2009. We have recently been neglectful of our fans in Central Mass. We got our start 7 years ago with your support and we felt the need to get back out there (albeit not close enough) so we can rock out for you again in your neck of the woods.
Our FINAL show of 2009 will be a special show as we will be joining with our Rock Brothers GRIFFON.
We will both be sharing the stage for 90 minutes each. This means not only will you be able to come out and hear our tunes, but you will also be able to hear some new tunes that we've been working on, as well as some covers that rock.
We're also going to do something very special. We are going to play our brand new album PUSH in it's entirety. That's right. We're starting with "Push" and ending with "What If I?" and we'll be playing it front to back. So, if you don't have the disc yet, visit the MERCH SECTION of our website so you can pick it up and get ready to sing along word for word and note for note with us!
the details are as follows:
FULL TILT live at CREEGAN'S PUB
December 19th, 2009
21+ 9:00PM FREE SHOW
65 Green St Worcester, MA
if there are covers that you'd like to hear in particular, feel free to contact us at fulltiltrocks@gmail.com and let us know what it is you want to hear!
I'm looking forward to 2010 and putting a fitting close to 2009. Are you?
Rock On!

We're featured for the week so you'll be able to tune in and hear a song of the record "PUSH" every 15th song for the next week. How sweet is that....

Justin's Birthday Bash 4
Hi,
If you're new to the band then you probably don't know me. I'm Justin (aka Bonsey). I sing in this outfit. In any case, every year I like to throw myself a "little" shindig for my birthday. Why? Cause it's my birthday mother fucker and I can do it if I wanna. Each year it keeps getting bigger and bigger. Last year was so crazy I can't even remember where it was...but I'm sure if I go through our show log I'd find it.... (P.S. - you can check out www.sonicbids.com/fulltiltrocks to find out if your one of those anal retentive folks). Usually if I can't remember, that means it was a good damn time. Well...this year....is already promising to look like a spectacular event.
Church is the old Linwood Grill. It's behind the Shaw's and Burger King on Boylston St. The place has got the bomb diggity food and a great selection of drinks. Not to mention the bartenders and clientle are pretty sweet too! This place happens to be one of my favorite bars in Boston for Rock Music...and I'm honored to be playing it on such a kickass night.
So what does this mean for you....well...first off...this means that everyone is going to be out at this event. It's the place you want to be! Second, we'll be having some special tricks up our sleeves including some new tunes and maybe some special guests accompanying us on stage....
So head on over to the shows section and purchase your ticket today for the show of the year....
Tell 'em Justin sent ya...
