New keyboard player - Will Blouin
We have added a new member to the band to play keys for us. His name is Will Blouin and he is doing an awesome job fitting in with us. His jokes may sometimes be corny as hell and he may have an appetite for late-night vending machine tipping, but he's a stand-up guy/musician and Shipyard Wreck is glad to have him onboard our ship. Say hello to him next time you see him play with us!

Emergenza Festival turns out to be popularity contest
After advancing to the semi-finals at The Paradise Rock Club in Boston, Shipyard Wreck did not advance again. Even though 60+ SW fans were present and cheering loudly, the winner was based on who brought the most people, not talent or crowd noise. Some lame excuse of three votes difference was then used after our audience chanted our name and booed the MC. It's alright though, next year we will win and we thank everyone who came out to see us. We appreciate your support and hope you all had a great time!
