Hey everyone!!

Notice that AW symbol underneath my calendar?? Yeah that's an AW Schedule link!
Open this link on your iphone and save to home screen. Just click this link and save it to your iPhone home screen!!

Finally back on the blog, it's been way too long! We've been up to some stuff lately and we've been happy to see all you coming out to the shows! Thanks to all those who showed up at our 2012 Fan Appreciation Night, another RIDICULOUS night as usual!! Just this past Saturday we treated some lucky fans to a full acoustic night. It was great to see all the people who came out and we were happy with the results (even if Zach had his head down for the last half of the night). It was a great time and a rare opportunity to be able to do that. However, we are back into the normal swing starting tomorrow...

Tomorrow night (Friday January 27) we will be playing at Mr. G's in Appleton and as you read in the title, we have an opening act! That's right, a local up and coming group called Overdrive will be opening for us starting around 7 so get out there early. They have a few videos on YouTube so check them out, they're way good!

Aside from that we have plenty of shows coming up as well as Adams Way's first child due in less than a month!!! Congrats to Ben and Katie in advance for that.

Keep up to date on this site as we've already been booked into late 2012!! LIKE US ON FACEBOOK!! We love all that stuff.

Ok this has gone way too long. Check out Overdrive and get out to our shows!!

Keep rocking,

AW

An Adams Way New Year

2011-12-09T11:20:00.000-08:00

Holy man! We just got the details for our New Years Eve Bash at JJ Maloney's Bar and you are not going to want to miss this! Adams Way will be rocking faces off from 9:30 - 1:30 and bringing in the New Year with as much music, booze, and entertainment as one man(or woman) can handle.
Here are just a few of the many things going on that night:

Shuttle
Shuttles will be running all night to pick you up and drop you off right at your house.(That's right, you don't have to call your mom at 2:30 in the morning this time)

Mechanical Bull
There will be a mechanical bull right on the dance floor for you to embarrass yourself on. Every rider is entered to win a Neon Bar Sign and other prizes.

Prizes
Throughout the night there will be tons of giveaways and door prizes. The Grand price is a 2 night stay at Edge-O-Dells Resort in Wisconsin Dells. A cabin of your own. $800 value!

Booze
The important part! There will be shot girls walking around for those incapable of moving enough to get your own drinks. There will also be free champagne and party favors to celebrate 2012.

The Deal of all Deals
The bar will be offering an all inclusive deal(open bar dudes!) This will get you all the alcohol you want all night for one price. (excludes shots and the expensive shit obviously). $35 a person or $55 a couple. You'll be golden from 9:30 - 2:00.

Big Things Coming Up!

2011-10-30T20:02:00.001-07:00

Halloween Bash 2011 was a huge success as you can obviously see!! The TMNT crew crushed and we had a blast with everyone that came out! Thanks to JJ Maloney's for letting us play and also to Ross Maxwell from 105.7 WAPL for hosting the night! Great times!

On to more pressing business...AW has 10 shows in the next 8 weekends all over the valley so make sure to keep up on the site to see where we will be each weekend!

Hope everyone had a great Halloween! Keep Rocking!!

Heroes in a Half Shell

2011-10-24T13:40:00.001-07:00

Halloween is almost here!! Adams Way will be playing at JJ Maloney's bar out on the corner of, yup you guessed it JJ and Maloney Rd! If you can't tell what we will be dressed as then you need to brush up on your 90's tv knowledge!

Get out to the party and wear your costume! Who knows, maybe you'll win something. And if not, you'll still get to have a great time with the band and everyone else there!

Keep checking the site for more details about the upcoming shows because there are a lot of them!

Get Your Dancing Shoes Ready!!

2011-10-06T06:58:00.001-07:00

Hey everyone! Welcome back to the site! Do you like my rapist/pedophile/drama coach look (both eyes and outfit)? Sorry for that....
It's been a little while since we last posted on here...a couple months that is. Here's the update on the band so far: we have been working hard on improving our live shows and are getting very excited about the turnout as well as the atmosphere at each show and we only have you guys to thank.....SO THANKS!!!!

Beyond that, we are very busy over the next few months with TONS of shows every weekend until 2012! Make sure you are checking the schedule and getting out to shows as much as possible because we love drinking with you! (and melting faces as well)

In other news, AW is expecting! That's right, our very own band wife is going to be having a baby around February! To clarify, that's ben's wife, Katie, but she's the only "wife" in the band so she's all of ours.

Anyways, I digress.....so to wrap up, check the schedule because we are all over the place every weekend from now til 2012 and beyond! Get out and check us out!!!!

Stay frisky!!

Rock Cancer

2011-08-23T11:19:00.000-07:00

Holy crap. Rock Cancer was a blast.....again. Adams Way had the pleasure of being part of one of the greatest fund raising events in the area. We had so much fun hanging out with everyone from the other bands as well as the workers and of course the fans. The crowd was pumped as were all the bands. Energy was through the roof. Heck, I even crowd surfed during FlashMob's performance. A lot of money was raised for cancer research and to directly help families financially who were and still are affected by cancer. Together we gave a big "screw you" to cancer. Thanks to everyone who came.

The date has already been picked for next year, so mark your calendars. 8/18/2012!

Adams Way has a boat load of shows coming up now that the summer is coming to an end. Check back frequently to see our schedule. Get out to the shows and have a drink with us.

Sweaty Uncle Teddy Approaches...

2011-07-20T11:02:00.001-07:00

So here we are, halfway through July and AW has been
hard at work over the last couple of weeks working through 8 originals that we will be unveiling this Friday at Bleachers in Kaukauna and then performing as an opening act to the legendary Motor City Madman, Ted Nugent! That's happening on Thursday July 28th so be there to enjoy all there is to enjoy that night!

As I said, we will be opening with our originals act and then Ted Nugent will play his full set. Immediately after he is done, we take the stage once again but this time in the beer tent to play our cover set for the next 4 hours of partying!! It's going to be a great night that you won't want to miss!!

Alright I'm signing off....as a teacher I have been hard at work this summer doing absolutely nothing and I have more of that to get back to....make sure you keep checking back to the site to see when and where we are playing our shows in the upcoming months!

KEEP ON ROCKIN'!!

Halfway Through Summer

2011-06-30T14:25:00.000-07:00

Summer is half over and Adams Way is still going full throttle. We played the MDA Camp gig last week and it was a blast! The campers there were so awesome and they partied just as hard as the crazy people in the bar scene.

We have only a couple weeks left to prepare for the big show this summer. Opening for Ted Nugent at the Outagamie County Fair. This is a big show for us because we get to play a full set of all original material. We've dug into the archives and pulled out some past billboard chart toppers. Ok. Ok. maybe they are better described as songs from our college years that have never been heard outside of our 12' x 12' room. Either way your in for a treat.

Right after that is Rock Cancer. I find it unnecessary to promote this because if you dont plan on going, well then consider yourself spending that night alone. EVERYONE is going to be at Doyle Park for Rock Cancer.

The Outagamie County Fair is Thursday July 28th and Rock Cancer is August 20th. So mark your calendars and get your tickets. They're already on sale for both events.

See you out there, Adams Way

Working Hard!!

2011-05-11T19:30:00.000-07:00

Hey everyone!! It's been awhile since we've been on here so here are the new newsables! Since Tony hit up California we have been "borrowing" Zach from Mcinnis to help us fill our sets and he's been fitting in perfectly! Still having great times at all the shows so don't be missing too much!!

If you haven't seen the schedule you may not have noticed that come July 28th, AW will be OPENING FOR TED NUGENT!!! That's right, we will be playing a 45 minute all original set before the Motor City Madman rocks the Outagamie County Fair. This means that we are hard at work with writing some new originals for you so keep your ears open from now til then as we may be testing some out at upcoming shows...

We are also happy to announce that on June 13th we will be playing a camp social at this year's MDA Camp! Super excited and privileged to be given the opportunity!

Well rockers, that's all the news for now...keep visiting the site to check up on the schedule and don't miss any show!!!

Keep rocking,
AW

T-Bone's Last Hoorah

2011-03-14T19:14:00.001-07:00

So here's the deal everybody...Tony has been offered a job in California and is heading out there at the end of this month...this is an excellent opportunity for him and we are super excited for him! However it is sad that Adams Way will be losing a drummer...

That being said, we are throwing a huge going away party for him at Gentleman Jack's this weekend (3/18) with an impromptu show! This means we need EVERY Adams Way fan there is to show up in full force and wish Tony luck as he moves on and show him what he will be missing when he goes...

It's going to get nuts and we look forward to seeing you all there Friday night to support T-Bone!

Keep rocking!!

AW

P.S. this is not the end of Adams Way, we are already in the process of finding someone to fill in so don't get TOO sad....even though it is sad he's leaving! Ok time to stop typing .... Love you all!!

WHOA! Its been a while. Adams Way had a crazy end of winter and early spring. We played a lot of shows and met a ton of awesome people. Thanks to everyone who came and partied. We have a couple weeks off before the start of summer but don't get too settled down. We already have a bunch of cool shows scheduled for the summer months. Check the schedule for updates because we add shows all the time.

Mark your calendars for Rock Cancer. If you believe it, it's gonna be even bigger and better than last year. A bunch of cool bands, tons of people, and even more beer! This year it will be held at Doyle Park, Little Chute again on August 21, 2010.

Till next time, keep rockin'.

2009 comes to an end

2009-12-02T20:57:00.001-08:00

Woa! That was an intense year. Ended on a very high note. In 2009 Adams Way made thousands upon thousands of dollars and we have nothing to show for accept a trailer full of sweet gear, a boat load of hangovers and a reputation of rockin faces off. We're gonna end the year right with a New Years Eve show at Leap Inn located in Freedom. It's going to be a blast and a good kickoff to to 2010. We hope to see everyone out at the shows next year so be ready, were coming for you.
