Listen to Pinwheel at their Official Site
...for anyone who hasn't heard of the band. "I urge everyone to go to their future shows and see which song is their favorite."
It seemed that on May 12, show, every song was a favorite. Like Melissa, the fans screamed as Pinwheel played covers, songs from their current CD, Dear Blue, and songs from their forthcoming CD, which is currently being worked on. The first set was special, being played specifically for record executives who got a taste first hand of what Melissa already knew. The second set was for the fans. Sal Scoca, Peter Santagada, and Vic Pena played their hearts out, even having Britney Fox's Billy Childs perform on stage for one song.
Melissa danced along with Phyllis Provino-Cullen (author of two of our Pinwheel stories), Maria (Web designer of PinwheelOnline.net) as well as the band member's significant others, friends and co-workers. Suddenly, a group of tourists from Israel got up and danced in front of the band. They also told Sal how to say obscenities in their native tongue. Who knows, maybe the band will work that word into one of their songs?
As the night got longer, one couple jumped up on stage and danced dirty alongside Sal as he sang. Their semi X-rated acts actually didn't affect the band at all, as they played on with even more fans gathering. One would say that Pinwheel was feeding off their energy, and giving it right back to the audience. Sal grabbed the mic and started Pinwheel's rendition of Bohemian Rhapsody, allowing a fan named Joy to come up on stage and sing the song while Sal played. Joy rocked the mic as the band rocked the show.
BANDWIDTH has been too many Pinwheel concerts and had never seen so many people gather around them like they did this night. This was for the fans. The fans were there for Pinwheel. This was truly one wild night; a special night. Stay tuned for more...
