Sorry Folks,
A final inspection was promised so the Rail could open this weekend but the guy was a no show - so, no shows this weekend at the Rail. American Roots Live's tribute to Bernie Brausewetter will happen Thursday May 10th. Hope to see you all then.

Bernie Brausewetter
September 10, 1954 - April 15, 2007
On Sunday afternoon, April 15Th, Bernie Brausewetter (AKA B.B.) passed away.
COMMENTARY BY NASTY NED FROM AMERICAN ROOTS BLOG :
Today we are all stunned and saddened by the passing, Sunday, of our friend, our brother, a true American Roots Live All-Star and international guitar-legend in his own right, Bernie Brausewetter.
BB was with us, on stage, through-out ARL's first year in every venue we played. Even when we expanded to two shows per week in two states, Bernie often made both, back to back.
Always a gentleman and a pro's pro, Bernie Brausewetter thrilled fans everywhere he went with his awesome genius and brilliant guitar work.
I can't say enough about the big man so I'll stop trying to find the right words. Forgive me. I'd rather post photos of Bernie this time
MORE PHOTOS ON BB'S MYSPACE WERE THERE IS A LINK TO THE STINGERS WEB PAGE AND ALSO HERE AT AMERICAN ROOTS
COMMENTS FROM A PLEASANT SYMMETRY :
BERNIE WAS A .GREAT GUY AND A GREAT MUSICIAN .
I WILL MISS HIM DEARLY , I AM GREATFUL TO HAVE KNOWN AND PLAYED WITH HIM .
HE WAS FUNNY AND OFTEN MADE SILLY FACES WHEN I TRIED TO TAKE PHOTOS OF HIM .
HE WAS QUIET THE MUSICAL GENIOUS , USING FLUID RUNS ,
EXOTIC CHANGES AND INTERPRETATIONS OF THE CLASSICS .
HE WAS A UNIQUE PLAYER AND VERY GIFTED .
HE WAS A SMART SONGWRITER ,
AND HE PLAYED WITH THE GREATEST MUSICIANS AROUND.
SOME PART OF ME WISHES I COULD SEE HIM PLUGIN AT THE JAM AT ORPHAN ANNIES OR AMERICAN ROOTS,
HE WOULD ROLL IN AND WATCH INTENTLY BEFORE AND AFTER HIS SET .
'
I KNOW WHEN I GO BACK TO O ' ANNIES ILL BE LOOKING FOR HIM SITTING WAY IN THE BACK ,
BUT I KNOW FOR CERTAIN ,
THERE IS SOME GUY IN HEAVEN RIGHT NOW MAKING JOKES AND PLAYING SOME OUTSTANDING SOLOS .
HEY BERNIE SAY HELLO TO THE BIG MAN FOR ME !
PEACE ED
(I WILL ATTEMPT TO UPLOAD PHOTOS HERE LATER )
3/29/2007 American Roots Live 51 was brimming with excitment last week. Maybe it was everyone's anticipation of ARL 52 - this week's one year anniversary celebration. Maybe it was because our friend, NYC firefighter, Brian Z was back on stage again. Maybe it was because guitar legend, Dave DiPietro was making his American Roots Live debut and smoking the house slow.
Maybe it was because Arlene Schar and Mimi Nowak sparkeled like diamonds or maybe it was Len De Piano, John Powers or JR Bradfield showing everybody how it's done with class, ability, humility and dedication.
OR just maybe it was that charbroiled 16oz steak with all the trimmings The Rail serves-up for just $9.95.
Whatever it was, we raised the bar again at American Roots Live 51 and we're looking forward to seeing all of you this week down at the station as we click past ARL 52 signaling one solid year of "open" roots rockin' fun.
It seems like just yesterday when I introduced our first co-hosts, Bassboards Blues Band with our friends Kate Weber and John Caruna
...then co-host Duane Chez
and, so sad to say adios when he left for Puerto Rico after ARL 8
...then so fortunate to come together with the incredible John Powers who co-hosts ARL to this day.
There are so many wonderful, solid people to recognize and thank including, but not limited to Billy K, Ed Pampani, Elliot "Win" Newcomb, Johnny Charles, HoneyBoy Dupree, Eddie Ray, Bobby Malavenda, Larry Gliozzi, Charles T. Wegman, Mike and Lynn Ruane, Elmore Magazine, Ben Elliot, Joe Karam, and Richie Zupko RIP.
ARL 51's role call includes John Powers, JR Bradfield, Ed Pampani, Len De Piano, Mimi Nowak, Dave DiPietro, Keith Mc Gonigle, Tommy Fuller, White Knight; Ed, Glenn, Shawn and Tom, Arlene Schar, Randy Marinelli, Carlo, Robert Zee, Arne Englund, Chris O'Sullivan, Uncle Wayne, Joe Sax, Dennis Macarone, Rob Fraser, Cal Richards, Brian Z, Chris Porto, Dave O, Bones Sanford, Roy MacNamara, and Metal Bob.
With lots of Roots fun in the future, including our long awaited TV show by the same name (which is just on the horizon), please don't forget the American Roots All-Stars autographed guitar that is being given away this Sunday at ARL 52. With only two opportunities left to buy tickets; this Thursday night and early in the evening Sunday, be sure and get yours.
Remember we're raising money with the guitar raffle as a part of the Blaze Benefit for our friend Harry Okie and his kids.
Hope to see you all soon.
Keeping it real,
ned
2/11/2007 Roots Review 43 & 44 Thursday nights at American Roots Live at The Rail have been a blast. Lots of great music, awesome performances, lots of smiling faces, winning raffle ticket recpients and tons of fabulous food. Ol' Nasty Ned is hurricane busy as usual - and now with production for American Roots TV in full swing (yes, we'll be on the air soon)- we're still playing catch up here. Between ARL 43 and 44 we held a fun and very successful American Roots Live All Stars Benefit Concert for Harry Okie that raised $1,500 for him and his kids who lost everything when their home burned down just before this past Christmas - and the fund raising continues as Bobby Malavenda of Manville Music donated a guitar to be raffled off in hopes of raising even more money for Harry and kids. The guitar is being signed by ARL All Stars and the raffle tickets can be had at every American Roots Live show - twice a week now - Thursdays at 9 and Sundays at 7 at The Rail as ARL is so much fun we now need two nights to enjoy it all. Please stop in and join the all this fun and get in on the raffle. The ARL All Star autographed guitar will be awarded to one lucky winner at ARL 52, Sunday April 1st - that's our one year anniversary show. You must be in attendance to win. Thanks go to all the wonderful Bands who participated in the benefit concert: The Country Westernaires, Tommy Fuller, The Wiliamzboy, Joe Cassady & West End Sound, Kate Weber & Bassboards Blues Band, The Congregation, John Powers Band, Big Daddy & the Wild Cats, Bad Monkey w/ Mimi Nowak, Tweed Schade & the Sugar Daddies, Nasty Ned & the Noo Dogs, Johnny Charles & Straight 8 Blues, Jimbeau & the Retrocasters and Wiser Time. Thanks go out to all musicians who have taken part in the regular open mic celebrations of American Roots Music, that's ARL 43 and 44: John Powers, Keith McGonnagle, Josh Gebhardt, Jr Bradfield, Len Depiano, Robert Zee, Ed PAmpani, Mimi Nowak, Bob Del Rosso, Mike Flynn, Dave Ambrosy, Lee Fink, NYC Firefighter; Brian Zaleski, Rotten Robert, Bob Giglio, The Doctor, Walter Foot, Bones Sanford, Mike Carrol, Roy MacNamara, Bobby Malavenda and more. Kudos to The Rail's ownership; Mike and Lynn Ruane, management and staff; Byron, Sarah, Evan, phtographers Win and Ed Pampani, webmaster Eddie Ray, Elmore Magazine and pulisher Suzanne Cadgene, and all the ambassadors, sponsors, volunteers and supporters. See you all soon down at the station on Thursdays and Sundays. Keeping it real, Ned www.myspace.com/americanroots1/24/2007 american roots live w/ nasty ned

Roots Review 37 & 38
The Bluetone Cafe in Easton, PA and the Rail in Bound Brook, NJ have had a lot of incredible musicians grace the two stages since we've started American Roots Live.Our taleneted and accomodating co-hosts John Powers in New Jersey and Billy K in Rennsylvania, make American Roots Live the place to be every Thursday and Sunday nights where the roots rock like no place else.Our celebration of 20th century American roots music continues to draw new musicians and fans alike.
Parents are learning that ARL is a great place to introduce their kids to the music and for this we are pleased.Last Thusday at the Bluetone we had nine year old Brent Myers on stage playing Billy K's stratocaster along side Nick T with Ed Moore on Drums and Chip Bush on bass. The kid was good and had us all satisfied that this is in fact what ARL is all about - bringing it to the kids.Both venues have become destination rooms for musicians of all ages and all talent levels from amature to pro. We've been fortunate enough to jam with Brian Becklin, Doc Z, Johanna, Michael Lopresti, Jim Ruffi, John Kasper, Bernie Brauswetter, Vern Mobley, Kieth McGonagal, Johnny Charles, Kim Bierny, Robert Zee, JR Bradfield, Len DePiano, Mimi Nowak, Bob Del Rosso, Jaimo Flynn, Bones Sanford, Lorrie Millheim, Alan G, WDIY's Stew Brodian, Keith Pagam Sr., and Keith Pagam Jr., Craig Thatcher and more.We thank all the musicians who participate - all fans who come out to support the cause and our venue owners and managaement.
We thank our volunteers and photographers and hope to see you all again soon.Keep in mind that Christmas Eve and New Years Eve have pre-empted the Sunday shows at the Rail but we will be back in full swing in Bound Brook starting again on January 7th. In the meantime the Bluetone has not missed a beat all Thursday shows have, and will go on through the holidays.Here's wishing everyone a joyous hoiliday season and we look forward to seeing you again soon.Keeping it real,Ned
http://american-roots.blogspot.com/ 12/13/2006 American Roots Live 36 was tons of fun - both at the Bluetone Cafe in Easton, PA on Thursday night and our re-opening at The Rail in Bound Brook, NJ on Sunday night.
I would like to thank our ARL headlining co hosts, John Powers (left) and Billy K (right) for their undying dedication to our cause - and for all their hard work.
I feel a need today to post our mission statement, so please read it and then check-out the American Roots Live 36 performers line up below. Thanks to all who participated in both venues. You were awesome and we hope to see and hear you again soon.
American Roots Live Mission Statement:
American Roots Live is a movement whose purpose is to promote and preserve the heartbeat of a culture - American roots music - Blues, Jazz, Rock, Country, Rock & Roll, Bluegrass, R&B, Soul, Gospel and all other hybrid rhythms and rhymes in-between.
This music, of a time period running roughly from the 1890's through the mid 1970's, makes up the genre our movement recognizes as American roots music. American Roots Live's purpose also includes reviving a "live performance scene" open to all who want to listen or play.
We are dedicated to sharing, encouraging and inspiring children and young adults to recognize and appreciate American roots music as the birthplace of today's music by getting involved at any of a growing number of American Roots Live open-mic locations - to play along-side a professional musician or just to come and listen.
The impetus behind the movement is significant as American roots music is no longer played on mainstream radio or showcased by mainstream media, forcing it into a narrowing niche away from mainstream American audiences.
As exampled by music venues originally opened as 'blues" or "roots" rooms now finding other forms of entertainment to pay their bills.
Disturbingly, this has become the norm for many venues around the country.
It is therefore the mission of American Roots Live to promote and preserve our American Roots heritage through live performance and all other media available, including television, radio, print, recorded media, internet and pod-cast so that grandchildren will pass it on to their grandchildren and so forth... and for this vital cause, we ask for your interest and support - musician and fan alike.
Founded in March of 2006, by Nasty Ned, American Roots Live functions as a dedicated volunteer group of regional American Roots Live Ambassadors; Duane Chez / Puerto Rico, John Powers / New Jersey, Honey Boy Dupree / Arizona and Billy K / Pennsylvania, Board members; Elliott Win Newcomb and Johnny Charles, E Team Director; Ed Pampani, Special Projects Manager; Arlene Schar, Audio/Video/Special Projects Producer; Bob Malavenda, Coordinators; JR Bradfield, Robert Zee, Amelia Lange, Len DePiano, Mimi Nowak, Photographers; Win, Ed Pampani, Eddie Ray and Don Shatto with Web Design and Hosting by Computown Technologies.

...and this comment was just posted today on Roots Review 33:
"Ned, you do a great job in trying to keep the roots of American music alive. In this day and age people are STARVING for the quality of all styles of song we grew up with and are forever in our DNA. There is a huge void in our current music culture that can only be filled by the American Roots music and legacy. Its great that dedicated musicians such as yourself carry on and when I grow up I want to be just like you!"

American Roots Live
BY NASTY NED
Monday
We love you Kelly Caruso! You GO girl. We'll be watching. American Roots Live 32 was nothing short of spectacular Thursday night at the Bluetone Cafe. Billy K & the Pocono Players headlined and, joined by special guest Carl Van Camp, ARL 32 was a blast. We kicked off with new comer, Michael Lopresti, who performed solo with acoustic guitar singing and improvising some cool original songs. Stand-out performances by Johnny Charles, Bernie BB Brauswetter, Jaimo Flynn, Arne Englund, Vern Mobley, Dan Balde, George Kokolis, Sonny Young, Arlene Schar, Roman, Dave Becker, Leo, Billy K, Ed Moore, Chip Bush and Mike P & the Joint Chiefs of Funk made for an electrifying evening in old Easton town. It was a memorable evening for one 9 year old student guitarist, who (accompanied by his father of course), sat fixed on the stellar, pro-guitar performances of Johnny Charles, Arne Englund, Billy K and Sonny Young. We look forward to this young man bringing his guitar to American Roots Live in the near future to perform with us.  John Powers & friends, EJ Rice and Josh Gebhardt headlined Wednesday at Crossroads with stand out performances by Mimi Nowak, Bob Del Rosso, JR Bradfield, The Doctor, Ed Pampani, Bones Sanford, Robert Z, Walter Foot, more. They reminded us all why our American Roots Movement is so significant and why each American Roots Live show so important. I hope to see you at American Roots Live 33 at Crossroads and the Bluetone Cafe on the 15th and 16th then ask you to look for Roots Review 33 to be posted from Phoenix, AZ during Thanksgiving week as American Roots Live and Elmore Magazine will join our good friend HoneyBoy Dupree on stage at Dessert Ridge Market Place on the 17th and the Rhythm Room on the 19th and 26th - these are two of the hottest Blues venues in the Valley. HoneyBoy Dupree & the Smokehouse Players, already 2002 IBC Award Winners, go for the 2006 IBC crown again on the 19th and we'll both be performing with Paris James and others at the Rhythm Room on the 26th. I'll let you know all about it in Roots Review 34 then I'll look to see you see you at ARL 35 the week after the holiday. Remember, there will be no east-coast ARL shows on Thanksgiving and the night-before.Did you know HoneyBoy Dupree is also a 2004 Arizona Blues Showdown Award Winner?  He also wants me to say hello to all of his friends in Jersey... Many thanks to our venues, ownerships and staffs and all of the talented, dedicated musicians and singers who step onto our stage every week. Thank you to all American Roots volunteers and ambassadors, our sponsors, supporters and friends. And most of all our fans. We need fan support to keep our shows alive - so that we can keep the music alive. Please join us. Bring a friend or two, or an aspiring musician, young or old, and have yourselves a great time. Keeping it real, Ned 10/25/2006

There is never a cover charge at American Roots, but we do encourage donations of any amount... and your generosity will send you home with the current issue of Elmore Magazine "Saving American Music" and maybe an Elmore CD featuring great music by John Lee Hooker, John Mayall, Eric Clapton, Mick Taylor, Hot Tuna and more!
We hope to see you there!
Attention: Acts wishing to showcase at American Roots Live can email Nasty Ned at nastyned@att.net
