Hello and welcome to christopherjoel.net!
I hope everyone had a nice Thanksgiving holiday. I unfortunately had a fight with a folded wheel cart that won :-( Doesn't help that this is the same hand I am having surgery done at the end of December.
Bad news...broken pinky.
Good news...no more cast and I do not have to postpone surgery.
I am taking it easy, ice, ibuprofen, etc. and doc said I should be ok.
Playing guitar should be okay, but I am taking a few days before picking up the drumsticks.
There is only 6 shows left for me in 2025, then I will be off until most likely mid/end of February. Three members of Unplugged will be on the mend, so it's all about timing. 2026 is looking bright and very excited to announce a handful full of shows once I get the green light.
Again, I thank all of you for your support of live music and coming to the shows!

Sorry for the late update, trying to get back in the swing of things.
Lincoln On Main...you guys were amazing!!! We met several people who traveled a few hours to come to the show, and the staff at Lincoln were awesome, and we will definitely be back in 2026! Next Unplugged show is Thursday, December 18 at Jergel's Rhythm Grille in Pittsburgh and we have a show Friday, December 19 that will be announced soon...check back.
Tonight, I'm doing an acoustic duo show with Mr. 007 David Judd at the Grand Island Moose Lodge, 7 pm (you can come, tell them you're a guest of Dave and Chris). Sunday, I am back at the Eden VFW for an afternoon show, 2 pm.
Come on out!

Sending out a HUGE THANK YOU to Apollo Canna in Salamanca for having us. If you would've told me that I would be playing an outdoor show in the middle of October...I wouldn't have believed you...but Unplugged did. What a beautiful venue and we had an awesome time. Thanks to all that came to see us and we will be back next year!

Flour City Station, thank you for having Unplugged this past weekend. We had an awesome time bringing our Grunge show to you. Thanks to our good friend Cheryl Burris for taking this awesome photo of the group.
THANK YOU!!!
Thanks to all of you who made it out to our first Unplugged show at The Caz! What a beautiful venue and it was an amazing night. Our first show with Jody Valletta behind the mic and we cannot wait to continue this journey, so we hope you can join us. We have a handful of shows coming up in October/November and December.
