Aug 21st 2008 - Yes we are starting to book gigs for the fall of 2008. Papa Freddy is having the urge to Rock out again after 6 to7 months of adjusting to life as a dedicated family man again. You can catch the 1st show on Sept 19th at Bill Ash's Lounge. Also there is a Big 2nd Annual Labor Day weekend BBQ/Jam at Chris's in Winthrop on Aug 30th. Had a great time last year. We hope to have a nice C213 set there too.

Welcome 2008... Yes the band is still together... We are busy with side projects but will be starting to gig again in April. Expect to hear more Originals and less covers.
 
Congradulations to Fred and Jill Domenici with the birth of their son Max on Dec 30/2007.... 7 lbs 13 ounces.

Hello, We'll be taking the winter of 2007-2008 off. See you in a few months in 2008. Freddy is in that song writing mode again so we should be able to come up with a few new-old unreleased tunes soon.

Hi everyone. We want to really give a special Thanks to Mike Dougwillo for doing a superb job at filling in for Dave on bass at Bill Ash's Lounge last night. He did his home work and in like 48 hours learned 25 cover tunes and 5 original songs. He enjoyed playing with us and did a grade A proffesional job. We are looking forward to working with again him soon.You can catch him and his main band "The Working Stiff's Band"  playing  often in the Lowell area. You can look them up at their MySpace site or Lowellrocks.com. We'd also like to thank JP for keeping the drinks coming all night.  11/22/07

Great night/day at the Malden Moose for the annual "Ashley Burns Scholarship benefit" Cambridge 213 took the night away like they were in heat. Special thanks to Tenny who sang the greatest cover of Bobby Magee that I heard anyone do in ages. She was to do that song with us  back 2 years ago when the 1st benefit for Ashley was held. She didn't have the chance. Since the schedule was tight with 2 bands and Gary Cherone topping off the night. She certainly  made up for 2 years of waiting. Hats off for Tenny. 10/25/07

Hi everyone. Sorry to say that Kim and Rosie won't be in the regular line up anymore. They just  took off with the new hit cover band "Rosie and The Rejects" so keep an eye out for thier shows. I'm sure they'll be popping in on some of the bigger venues.10/20/07

Hey... To all you folks that made it to Bill Ash's Loung on the 4th, We salute you... Though we had tech difficulties with the PA,  The crowd really enjoyed the music and we actually filled the dance floor. Remember PA feedback is free and It wouldn't be a C213 gig at Bill Ash's lounge with out Freddy making that comment. We'll see you there again on 9/15. Also a special thanks to Chuck Mustone for sitting in and making my guitar and rigg  sing like a bird and weep like a willow tree.................Tim 8/16/07

We'd like to thank Jimmy Oliver for filling in on Bass guitar last week at the the Cove while Dave was on Vacation. It was a great night.  7/24/07

Tim and Fred have been recording originals all winter. We've been utilizing many band associates in these recordings and some of these songs will be incorporated into c213 soon. You can hear a sample of  "Doing Fine" on the "New song page" Tim 5/20/07

Hey everyone, Chris finally has a new drum kit.... I guess we'll finally hear how it sounds on the 9th of June...  Tim 5/20/07

Everyone was saddened by the passing of Brad Delp of "Boston" and "Beatle Juice"... Freddy wrote a touching tribute song in his memory. We started the studio recordings and should have something released soon. We'll keep you informed of the progress.  Tim, 5/15/07

Rumors have been that Rosie is going to jump on the band wagon with us. He's a great guitarist and  c213 will once be a 6 pc band again for the 1st time since 2002. Mean while Tim and Fred will be releasing 2 new original kick ass c213 songs...    1/30/07

YES....Tim tends to favor his left side quite a bit.....stay tuned for any changes in his posture.....   Betty & Dana  5/15/07

Great time at the walk for Autism benefit in Brighton on 10/15/06. An estimated 10,000 people attended and or took part. Mamma Kim and the little drummer boy were great. We should have some pics of Kim and her 10 year old son Chris jammin out.

   Little Chris is a true natural on drums and he prooved it that that day. Special thanks to Rosie and John....   10/20/06

I'd like to thank Chuck Mustone for performing as a special guest with c213 at Bill Ash's. He joined the band for a whole set of some of his prized originals as well as some his classic cover renditions.... It sent shivers down my spine to hear those song played so well....  Tim 10/1/06
 
We'd like to welcome Kim Filocamo to the band as the new keyboardist and piano player. Kim is a true asset to the band and has quite alot of performing experience and talent behind her.  JUNE 2006

 RUMOR- THE OLD HOUSE AN CAMBRIDGE ST. IS GOING TO GET THE WRECKING BALL I HEARD.
TRUTH IS: THE OLD BAND HOUSE IS SCHEDULED TO WRECKED IN LATE SPRING TO MAKEROOM FOR CONDOS...BUT DURING THE
HOLIDAYS, THE FURNACE BLEW UP AND SPREAD SOOT AND HEATING FUEL VAPORS THROUGH OUT THE HOUSE. SO THE IS BEING VACATED AND PROBABLY BULL DOZED SOONER. THE MEMORY AND THE SONGS STILL LIVE FOR MANY...

I heard the band is preparing to record 5 new originals this summer is it true???  Yes it is true we are not sure when the actual release date is yet
