Well, tonight we were shocked and overjoyed. In 1991 in Norwalk, CT Dave asked Jon Aley to join a new hockey band he started with his friends Peter and Tarquin Katis. John who at the time was bassist and main songwriter for local legends Those Melvins replied “haaa, nope. I don’t like hockey or any other sports for that matter”. Dave replied, “you could be the drummer”! John let out a quick blast of “I’m in”! John has had some longtime challenges and has been fighting to come out to the basement and play some music with us for 10 years or so. Well, he made it! Give it up for John! Tarquin could not make it but Peter, Steve and myself (Dave) rocked out with John for a good 3 hours. #musicsaves #thezambonis @tqkatis @peterkatis @stephantanski

Since we are playing for the baby islanders this Saturday we figured we would shout a few Long Island favorites vinyl style. 1st is one of our favorite groups who get better with every record the amazing @thelemontwigs Next up the twangin trio whom we saw in 1982 @straycatsmusic and another legendary trio from Strong Island @wearedelasoul None of these groups play songs about hockey but they still tickle our fancy pretty nicely. @ahlislanders

A great night in NYC seeing @mrdavehill at @sohoplayhousenyc He has a few more shows there. Catch it if you want to feel good. If you don’t want to feel good, try the Boar’s Head liverwurst.

We partied like it was Friday although it was just a Monday in NYC. @mrdavehill off Broadway smash hit at @sohoplayhousenyc “Caveman In A Spaceship” is a rockin, sexy, hilarious, smart smile fest. Zambonis @tqkatis and Dave were so pumped during dinner they customized some Dave Hill NHL logos in crayon. 🖍️ Some real bonus points for all the cool kids coming to the show. Always nice to see the hilarious @toddbarry and so many others but a man who was so sweet and a huge part of our world for all these years @kithonline legend @davefoley Just a memorable night and probably the only gig and dinner we felt completely comfortable wearing some obscure hockey jerseys to dinner and a show. Hats off to Hill! #davehill #sohoplayhouse #hockeyrocks #thezambonis

Hockey Birthday to our guru in the blue Whalers jersey. One of the best humans ever. Zambonis, husband, biker, friend, liquid connoisseur, musician, reader, worker, woodshedder. The list goes on and on. So happy you are a part of our life Tom A Tater. @annandrukevich @colleenroche

We can’t wait for opening day! @ahlislanders have made the fine decision to have a HOCKEY BAND rock the hockey party on October 12th. Our friends at @berlinettabrewing are a sponsor and a fine athletic supporter of we Zambonis! We are on from 4 to 6 so come on down, check out the band then stick around for the Islanders vs @ahlbruins #hockeyrocks #nyislanders #ahl #bridgeport #thezambonis

The band played great yesterday and believe us, just getting to a gig after work is enough for the gig MVP. Our guess is 97% of all bands are going to a gig from their day jobs. A huge tip of the helmet to all of you working musicians who do this cause you love it. That all said our MVP from yesterday is @dartman1971 Rich played a gig Friday night in Iowa with his legendary Monkee man Micky Dolenz and his incredible bandmates. He then flew out on a early morning flight, had a layover in Minnesota, took a picture of a women at the airport bar wearing a Hartford Whalers sweatshirt, got his connection which took him to Bradley Airport in Hartford. He then drove 1 hour and 40 minutes to arrive at our 4pm gig 30 minutes early. Played for 3 hours like butter and then drove one hour to home sweet home. #hockeyrocks #musicians #musiclifestyle
