Yes we do play weddings, but not in the traditional sense.

When someone hires us to play their wedding, its because they want a Blue Method show experience to be part of their wedding memories. They don't ask us to learn anything...maybe ONE tune, but that's about it and that means we cost considerably less than a traditional wedding band who'd charge anywhere from $5000.00 - $15000.00. So if you're looking for a band to play your wedding, keep in mind that we will play Blue Method originals in addition to the covers that you'd like from our list of covers.
Al Green - Let's Stay Together
Stevie Wonder - I Wish
Stevie Wonder - Sir Duke (upon advance request)
Stevie Wonder - Signed, Sealed, Delivered (upon advance request)
Stevie Wonder - Superstition
Marvin Gaye - Sexual Healing
Marvin Gaye - What's Going On/Mercy Mercy Me
Sam Cooke - Bring it on Home to Me
Sam Cooke - That's Where Its at
Sam Cooke - Nothing Can Ever Change This Love I Have for You (A capella)
Sly & the Family Stone - If You Want Me to Stay
Sly & the Family Stone - Thankyou (for letting' me be myself)
James Brown - The Payback
James Brown - Get on the Good Foot
James Brown - There Was a Time
James Brown - Sex Machine
The JB's - Gimme Some Mo
The Funky Meters - Tippy Toes
Headhunters - God Made Me Funky

Theron Shelton, drummer for The Blue Method.......was beautiful.

I can't begin to recount the wonderful memories I have of you. I've been listening to your amazing drumming since EchoFace brother. Its all I can do to not claw this keyboard to its destruction. I will miss you forever. I have soooo much love in my heart for you that will never die. I know you knew it because I told you often. I know you loved me because you told me just as much. What am I going to do without you in my life? Who's gonna be my movie buddy? Who's gonna lecture me for not buying a… Continue

The Blue Method

A History of The Blue Method

Mike Patriarca(guitar) and Tom Long(saxophone) had been in a band called Big Dog Lovin' and the lead singer died. They tried some instrumental stuff for a while. The name The Blue Method actually existed before I met them. Anyway, we met and we started what REALLY is The Blue Method in 2001. Dirty Dan Schram and David Duffin were the bass player and drummer. A disagreement resulted in their exit in the summer of 2004 when Kill the Music Vol.1 was nearly complete. Theron Shelton had been a friend… Continue

The Blue Method

I'm not hatin'. I'm just making comparisons to greatness.

I sometimes get into heated discussions about today's singers. After expressing my views, I sometimes get called a "hater". I hate that dumb word. It's completely dismissive of any rational reason for disliking someone's music. Reasons like "Their lyrics are so crappy", or "Everyone in R&B sounds exactly the same", or "I bet you'll hear an "OH!" before this song is over". (LOL!) I actually had someone tell me that he didn't think STEVIE WONDER could really sing all that well. Crazy, right? B… Continue

Short cuts are the enemy - This won't be as coherent as I might normally write cause I'm pissed.

In the recording process it is important to be mindful that short cuts usually result in a product that is less than shining. For instance, if you want horns, save the money, if need be, to hire horns. That being said...you shouldn't even think about that expense until your song has been...wait. My advice 1st and foremost is to take the necessary time to form a band. If you want to be Whitney Houston, see if you can get discovered at an open mic (yea right) or go on Star Search or Showtime at th… Continue

The Blue Method

Ought to be ashamed of yourself for digging on a "person" who abuses AUTO-TUNE!!!

There was a time when you had to do take after take to get that one perfect or best possible take. And that would be your finished product. Over time recording companies began to "splice". But there wasn't a whole lot of this. It'd be big sections of songs that got spliced together. Eventually, technology progressed to the point where splicing was not good enough. Artistry began to decline and only people like Ray Charles were delivering on the first or second take. Producers were splicing verse… Continue

Please accept my condolences. I only met Theron a few times, but I was impressed by his positive spirit and his tremendous talent.

Hey, Brian.

Good tunes. Liked 'Don't They' a lot, but the top pick for me was Spinnin'. Everyone's really bringing it on that one. 5 stars from me.

Peace, Epic Songs

Celebrating 31 years sober on the 14th...my sympathies! I can still recall the feelings! LOL "Get that light away from my eyes!" Check out my blog, Brian...irish-injun.livejournal.com I'm on the Downtowner blog roll. It would be good to set up an interview with you and give you a write up. I promote the arts in Trenton.

Brian, I am simply a writer who plays the flute. I saw your name at Cafe Ole today and smiled.

I read music, taught music to seventh graders a long time ago, and feel the stuff in my blood. I'm a writer who likes to make music, as opposed to a musician who likes to write. When I started my life over a few years ago the first thing I bought was a computer, next a flute and lastly a sewing machine. I figured with those tools I would rebuild my life. I'm doing so. I'm a bit too old to theorize about anything. A thing either works or it doesn't. LOL

Hi, Brian. I began playing when I was 11...lol Do I have to admit to playing 50 years? 'Makes me sound like Methusalah!
