Well, as some may have heard, it looks like the end of an era has arrived. After our September gig, Stagepass is calling it quits as an active bar band. Several members of the group are going to pursue different projects. After 12 years, it's probably due. Stagepass is not breaking up.... Just putting ourselves on the shelf for a while. We still hope to do the festival season next year and some special occasions at various bars, and the one or two charity performances we love to do yearly. It's been a great ride and we have a lot of memories. We hope to have a few more too.
As always, keep checking the datelist for current and up to date gigs we have scheduled. This will be important because of our limited schedule in the future. And if you're not on our e-mail mailing list, send a note to our mailbox below and we'll see you're added.
We've removed some old and added a couple of new pictures to various pages on our site in preparation of upgrading it. Not many, but a few.
We replaced our old "Snail Mail" distribution with on line E-Mail notices in 2001. This system really worked out well. Please sign our guest book or give your E-Mail address to any band member and we'll put you on "The List"!
Stagepass has recorded one of our originals, "On The Radio" for a compilation CD of local Cleveland bands. The CD is now available for purchase. The web address where you can purchase it is http://www.littlefishrecords.com . In addition to Stagepass, many other fine artist's work can be found there. Please check it out!
We would also like to place a link to Yard Rat Radio on our site. It's a streaming Internet based radio station that is profiling new original projects in the Cleveland area. It was brought online by one of the founding members of Crystal Rain (Kelly and Jim's longtime original/first band project), Dave Alexander. The site has been added to many musical search engines and is receiving hits from as far away as New Zealand, Japan, and South America, in addition to many from the Cleveland area. Dave has been receiving many new original items from local artists that he'll be putting on the site shortly. It is currently streaming selections of Political Piggies, a compilation of Crystal Rain songs recorded by Kelly, Jim, and friends, along with other great local original music. Please visit the site and enjoy the diverse music found there. If you know of any original musicians who would like to have their music sampled by a worldwide audience, contact Dave through Yard Rat's website! Thanks! http://www.wholesalephoto.com/yardrat_radio/yardrat.html
