Why is this release important? It's the first one with album art!

Also, Ultimate-Guitar.com's player is not working, so it won't be posted there, but you can still click the link above this post to subscribe to us!

Status Update

Hi everyone it's been a while so I figured I'd give a status update. First of all, hope everyone had a nice Thanksgiving. We are probably going to rehearse tomorrow, if possible, and perhaps record "Broken" or "Outcast". Don't forget, "Dead End" drops on 11/30/11. It'll be posted on UG and soundcloud, available for download and play. With luck, our first LP will be done by spring 2012. That's all for now.

Rock on!!
Bryan F.

P.S.- don't forget to follow Gateway's official twitter account, @GatewayB_B_M_K, as well as Bryan B.'s official account, @ThisIsBryanB, and Bryan F.'s official account, @BryanFmusician

It's Been a Few Days

So here's what were doing.

Rehearsing today.
We have half of "Dead End" done including the lead and rhythm guitars. We have drums, but they need to be redone.
"Outcast" and "Broken" are on the way.

That's it.

Current Glitches

We are having some difficulties with Twitter. It is experiencing a few glitches with "Followers" and "Following". The "Twitter Feed"s in the lower right of the blog are having a few problems as well, they may not appear at the start of opening the blog. Try refreshing.

More Details on Live Performances

The "Long Island Idol" at the Bounce 'N Play in Center Moriches has a prize. Recording time in a professional studio and a song is aired on the radio! We must win.

Also, if you've been following @BryanFmusician's twitter (Twitter feed down on lower left along with @ThisIsBryanB and @GatewayB_B_M_K) then you already know we have 3 more songs planned out called "Outcast", "Broken", and "Dead End". Don't expect this to be a second EP, we are either continuing to make a full album or skipping this EP. I expect that it's the first.

P.S. - Did you know that P.S. doesn't stand for "Post Script"? it stands for "Postscriptum", Latin for "Written after".

Do You Consider This a Tour?

Gateway is making their first live appearances!

When more details are available, they will be given. Gateway is performing at the "Long Island Idol" at Bounce N' Play in Center Moriches. Hope we win!

We're also possibly performing at a friend's summer concert. He's in a metal band, so come to hear our heavier setlist.

These are all in the summer.

Let You Go E.P.

Hello. I'm still psyched about the E.P. release the other day and I've been trying to figure out my guitar solos for all 3 tracks (I don't actually write solos, they're all improvised on the spot). Yeah, other than that, not much going on, just writing for a solo album in case I ever get recording equipment and waiting for my ZT lunchbox I ordered the other day.

Rock on!
-Bryan F.

Writing credits from the album:
His Majesty; Bryan Filetto/Mike Pelliccia
Lies; Bryan Burrowes/Bryan Filetto/Mike Pelliccia/Kevin Filetto (L.I. Smalls)
Let You Go; Bryan Filetto/Bryan Burrowes/Mike Pelliccia

EP, Deluxe!

I hope you saw that the EP posted in the "Post Release Post" was a Deluxe Edition with a Rebirth Version of Let You Go. Download links are also available in SoundCloud in bottom left of this blog, or at this link:

P.S. - L.I. Smalls is a great drummer, but I have to take credit for the drums on Let You Go and Let You Go (Rebirth Version), we hired L.I. after these tracks were recorded and I played the drums on those songs.
