  2009 is beginning to look better and better for Carnival Of Sin. Our management team at Entertainment West, is working on spring dates in the US mid-west, New York and Florida, summer dates for the west coast of North America and the massive Rocklahoma festival in July. They're also beginning work on a small tour of Brazil, at key venues throughout the country. Now that'll be fun !!!
  I've also begun working on a new cover-band project for the country/rock circuit, tentatively named 'Lynchburg'. We'll see how that one turns out.

  Welcome to the new jmtate.com . I've finished 90% of the updating and all that remains is going through recordings and videos to add to the 'Media' page. That'll be a job-and-a-half !!!
  Also on the agenda ... Carnival Of Sin is working on a mini-tour of Ohio, Kentucky and Pennsylvania, with Trans-Fusion Entertainment. So, we'll see where and when that will lead.

  My Dad and I got to see one of my all time favortie drummers, Steve Smith perform, in clinic tonight. What an experience !!! I was heavily influended by his work with Journey and for many years, had thought of him as a rock drummer as opposed to the jazz player, he truly is. If you don't know Steve's work ... do yourself a favour and check it out.

  The close of a very eventful month - specifically the last weekend with Carnival Of Sin, at The Exotic Erotic Ball & Expo, in San Francisco, CA.. An estimated crowd of 30,000 plus was on-hand for the event. We performed on the Friday night and were invited to participate in Saturday night's VIP festivites. The photographers were nuts and as soon as one flash-bulb went off, at least a dozen other guys with cameras, would appear out of nowhere and we'd be posing while they ate it up. As part of the select group of VIP invitees, we were rubbing elbows with Danny Bonaduce (LA Radio host) and Heather Chadwell (model & TV personality) and a host of adult film starlets. The trip was almost too quick but we had a blast and made some great connections for participating in future events, all over the world.
