2008 New York City Marathon

March 02, 2009

Matty B and the Dirty Pickles just rocked out NYC this weekend, Saturday night at Uncle Mike’s club in Tribeca, courtesy of Turnstyle Music, and then on Sunday at the 2008 NYC Marathon. After avoiding crisis Sunday morning, the boys rocked out hard for 4 hours in the freezing cold to support the runners. They were ecstatically greeted and cheered on as 39,000 people ran past and stopped for pictures and high fives from the group! (they also got to tour a recording studio next door, since the owner was loving their music and made some great contacts!!) In October, they opened for the 2nd time for the Misfits in Cleveland, OH.

The Dirty Pickles released their first album, Picklebilly, in August 2008. Check it Out!

Also in August, Matty B and the Dirty Pickles won the Rock Erie Award for best Alternative Rock Band!! Congrats guys!!
