Ronnie Dalesio: News & Journal

(Now back from hiatus), we're getting things going again and updating our little niche in the world of music.

We've posted some additional music in Discography-Singles for you to check out. A couple more, (previously recorded in 2007 & 2008), rough tracks done with The Otherwise; And with Drew Locke on his solo material.

Ronnie infuses bass tracks on their songs: ["20,000 Leagues" & "Bullet" (renamed "Kerosine") w/The Otherwise] and ["Jonny Jon" & "Down So Low" w/Drew].

You can also check out Drew and his solo work at his MySpace:

Enjoy! ~PDP

Simply put: Ronnie lays out some “Sick Bass Licks” on “Jigsaw” while in the Seattle Drum School studio with “The Otherwise” – now known as Kevlar Fashion Show. Recorded in 2007, we’ve put it up on Ronnie’s MySpace for the masses to check out!

The Otherwise, as they were previously known with originating band mates Drew Locke & Patrick Ward, went on to reinvent a new original band now known as Kevlar Fashion Show with other artists, and Jane C. (vocals) went on to form Farchild.

You’ll also find that we’ve put up some of the finished tracks on “I’m Free” (2009), the 2nd album by Month Of Mondays. This second album features a third guitar player and Ronnie creates supporting bass lines; In comparison to the first album “Dead Horse” (2005) that features more counterpoint bass.

Take a listen to the varying styles of music and spectrum of bass roles Ronnie brings to the table for various artists and their creations.

So we've been a little busy around here, preparing & performing shows, and also trying to enjoy the great weather since summer decided to come late this year!

We want to get back in touch and let you know what's gone on and what's comin' up, so here's the new news:

The Aury Moore Band will be performing at the Bite of Seattle Sunday, July 20, 2008.

We'll be hittin' the KZOK Mural Stage (at the Seattle Center) at 4pm.

We hope you'll stop by and say 'hi' and rock out the afternoon with us!

It was a gorgeous day to be sharing the stage with my friends, The Aury Moore Band, Straight On, and Goldy McJohn and Friendz.

The Aury Moore Band rocked the KZOK stage Saturday and we have posted a number of photos and a short video clip of our gig right here on the website. You can also check out some additional video clips and photos at my myspace at myspace.com/ronniedalesio.

Have a safe and wonderful July 4th! Keep it Live, Loud, and Proud!......Ronnie

“PATCHES PALS 4 LIFE” Benefit Show

2008 is out the gate and The Aury Moore Band is starting it off with a worthy cause!

Enjoy the always entertaining Pat Cashman as he emcee’s the night featuring performances from ‘The Aury Moore Band’, and ‘Magic Bus’ headlining the night featuring Bob, Spike, and Kaci from KZOK Radio in an evening honoring J.P. Patches. We will also have the pleasure of Alan White (‘YES’ drummer) performing with us and Magic Bus on a few tunes. Video footage showcasing the admirable J.P. Patches & his brilliant career will role completing this evening’s cause and making this an event to remember!!

J.P. Patches & Gertrude are the infamous icons of Washington State who have spent their careers helping kids. (If you grew up in the Pacific Northwest then you can’t help but remember the Emmy award winning J.P. Patches Show that aired 23 years, from 1958-1981, on KIRO TV.) This is our chance to help them out! A portion of the proceeds will go to help meet the fundraising goal to complete and unveil the life sized bronze statue of J.P. and Gertrude that will be placed in the Fremont District this year. (Their goal is to reach $150,000 and there is about $80,000 left to obtain it.)

We also will be donating a portion of the proceeds to Children's Hospital of Washington, a place dear to J.P.’s heart.

NOTE: This is a 21 years and over event.

Go to www.aurymoore.com where you can link in to order tickets online for the show.

Please join us in helping Children's Hospital & the J.P. Patches Statue at the ‘Temple Theatre Ballroom’ on April 5th.

It was a pleasure to share the stage and rock the roof off with Aury Moore & The Sonic Earth Angels (Eddie, Brad, and Joel). There were in attendance people that we knew and quite a few that we didn’t and by the end of the night the crowd was on their feet and really showed their appreciation of an entertaining show. The band did a great job and it will be a New Year’s Eve gig that I will not soon forget!

We hope that you had a fun and safe New Year’s Eve celebration and that 2008 IS the year for all of your wishes to come true. Make it a live, loud and proud one!......Ronnie & PDP

Aury Moore & The Sonic Earth Angels have officially asked Ronnie Dalesio to join forces with them as their newest band member. With Ronnie as their bass player, Aury & the SEA are focusing on attaining ambitious goals in the next several months. They’re ringing in 2008 with a New Year’s Eve gig at the Mainstage in Seattle. The band will rock you past midnight so all you need to bring is your confetti, funny little hats, and your noise makers! We hope to see you all there!

To All~

Today Ronnie's MySpace was hacked by someone with the intent to hurt him and his integrity. Offensive bulletins were posted by someone representing themselves under the illusion of his MySpace profile and some of our kind cyber friends gave us a heads-up. We’ve taken steps to rectify the situation and the previously bogus bulletin posts now seemed to have miraculously 'disappeared'. Many thanks to our supportive cyber friends!!!

We've got some kickin' new tunes up on the site! You might recall in mid March of this year Ronnie was asked by a new Seattle band to come into the studio and lay some bass tracks for their new songs.

Well, today is your lucky day.....we have three of their new tunes posted for your listening pleasure! You can check out the tracks and learn more details about 'The Otherwise' at the 'Music' page.

ALSO, check back soon as we will have some awesome new photos of Ronnie's latest impromptu gig with 'Here-N-Now' that was performed at Sound Harley Davidson a couple of weeks ago.

Ronnie is looking for the next “hard rock” project. Ronnie closed up 2006 working for Leon Hendrix, and now that Month Of Mondays is in the process of finalizing their second album, and he has done bass tracks assisting a new Seattle based band, The Otherwise, for their first CD release compilation, he is interested in moving forward on an experienced hard-rock based venture.

You can check out his material (that includes short music clips and recent videos), his bio, and chronology of his work experience here at his website, (ronniedalesio.com) and additional info at his MySpace profile at myspace.com/ronniedalesio. You can also listen to the most recent tracks that he did this year for The Otherwise at their MySpace profile, myspace.com/theotherwise, which is hard rock/progressive influenced.

If you are in the process of putting together a hands-down, kick ass rock band and are looking for an experienced bassist you can contact Ronnie Dalesio via e-mail at dalesior@ronniedalesio.com. Please include a brief description of your project/band, provide info regarding any material that he can check out (if possible), and your contact information.

Please, serious inquiries only. Best wishes in your endeavors. ~Purple Door Publishing

Last night’s show was “smokin’!! Ronnie played with “Bridge” stepping in for Craig who was feeling under the weather. The boys (Troy, drums and vocals - always entertaining [cowbells!], Brad, guitar and vocals - electrifying precision, along with Ronnie rippin’ it up with the six string) put together a great show. Ed was also there and “Here-N-Now” did a few tunes and as always “Party Hotel” delivers bringing down the house to everyone’s ecstatic pleasure.

The night was four hours of absolute rock-n-roll. Bridge did 30 or more covers from varying artists and Ronnie was spot on, having a day and half to pull together his parts from the set list. Troy, Brad, and Craig were so appreciative for his excellence and willingness.

The Oxford crowd was great and Cindy, manager, was a fabulous hostess as always! They have the best food and you have gotta try their steak and prawn dinner that is fantastic! There is no short-changing of portions at this place!! By all accounts and everyone’s response it was truly entertaining and if you were there I’m sure it was a show you are glad you didn’t miss! We’ll be getting some photos, and possibly a video clip, up very soon.

It was great to see friends and familiar faces and thanks go out to you for making it to the show, and to the rest of the crowd and those that came up between sets and after the show to hit it up with the guys. Hope to see you again soon at another gig!
