2/27/14: Tonight we are really excited to be apart of Mother's (NYC Band - www.RockYourMother.com) cd release pre party!
The show tonight is an invite only exclusive deal. All the bands playing the CD release on 3/14 at Mercury Lounge are playing short initimate acoustic sets tonight where there will be merchandise discounts as well as an open bar. If you subscribed to our mailing list you have received the rsvp link needed to attend this event. Also at this event we will be selling tix for the Mercury Lounge show. Can't to hang with all our friends tonight, but bundle up because it's ridic out.
2/28/14: Tomorrow's Festivities, Craving Strange's (www.CravingStrange.net) CD release show, are at Revolution Bar & Music Hall in Amityville!
For all the Long Island rock n rollers this is an event not to be missed! It will be a dysfunctional family reunion, which everyone can actually attend! Yes even you from the UK! This entire event will be available via live stream at www.RenegadeRadio.net. Everyone can witness the rock stylings of Midnight Mob, Craving Strange, Revel9, Jackknife Stiletto & Pedestrian KO as well as all the antics that will ensue! We will let you know about interaction through this live stream.
We will be playing an acoustic set at this show beginning at 8:30. Unfortunately we were unable to work with a drummer to do this show full out mob style. We have actually been getting alot of compliments regarding our acoustic sets lately, which was a huge surprise to us. We're used to do doing a more in your face sort of live set & to sit one place unplugged is crazy different. For those of you who are familiar with the material our acoustic versions are reworked as such with slightly different parts and arrangements with 3 guitars and no bass which allows us to add lots of melody.
If you ordered tix via our paypal box office and have not received them by tonight fear not! We have been really busy this week practicing, filling orders, getting tix out etc... So if you have paid for a ticket through paypal & do not have one we will place your order at the door under the name you purchased the tix. Any questions hit us up through email and/or facebook!
This weekend is going to be awesome & it starts one day early! Can't wait to see everyone at the shows! Peace!

Paint it Black!
We would like to thank everyone so much for supporting us over the years, it's been truly amazing. We get messages from people everyday telling us they love our music & admire our passion for pursuing it.
If you follow us on facebook (www.facebook.com/JoinTheMidnightMob) then you know we like to poll our fans on certain things. It's a way for us to get to know who we are talking to and extracting some feedback when we are questioning things we may want to do. We have polled everything from cover songs, comic books, facebook group & touring. These polls allow us to cater to our fanbases likes and encourage participation in Midnight Mob. Unfortunately it takes a while to act some of these, but they are never forgotten. We like to keep logs of the responses.
Anyways one of these polls was asking if Blackey should have her own Facebook page. We had such an overwhelming response that we had to do it. The only reason why we questioned it is because it takes a lot of time to consistantly maintain all social media platforms in addition to writing, recording, networking etc... We didn't want to put something out there that wasn't quality. Quality over quantity is our mantra and is probably why we take so long to complete new material, but rest assured it's on its way!
Blackey's fan page was officially published yesterday morning (www.facebook.com/blackeydeathproof). If you would like: stop by and say hi, post something about how we met, post a pic of us hanging out, post a suggestion/request, if you want something signed send a message, basically anything. Lets gets to know each other. The one thing we would like to make clear is that this page is not about a trillion likes it's about legit personal connection and just another means of accomodating that want. The plan as of now is to do maybe one post a day on this page at noon which may be personal, show ad, poll the audience sort of thing, promo for another band/business/aritst, videos, pictures etc... in addition to responding to any of your posts. Again quality over quantity. We love sharing others stuff so post away or message a special request for us to advertise it on either page.
Horn up Moblins!

I wanna see it painted black, painted black
Black as night, black as coal
I wanna see the sun, blotted out from the sky

Be Interviewed by Blackey!
Since we have not been traveling it has really opened up time to brainstorm not only with new material but with other stuff. One of which is being able to make it to more of our friend's shows and bands we have been hearing about. We decided to take it one step further.
Throughout our time as a band we have really enjoyed doing interviews no matter how big or small. We love talking about Midnight Mob what we're up to, what's next etc... An interview is the band's time to show how passionate they are about their craft and give a more personal insight to the personalites that make the music. So we figured why not interview our friend's bands and band's we meet while touring. Sometimes it's also a little more comfortable for a musician to interview another musician and ask questions based on our experiences we all have shared. We will also ask questions that we have received through our mailing list as well.
So this is an advertisement to band's, artists, entrepreneuers etc... If you would like Blackey to do a video interview with you please message us! This is meant to help as an additional medium to promote. All videos will be edited clean to maximize exposure and thrown up on our official Midnight Mob youtube channel. We will also forward you the raw file so you can upload it on your channel. In addition, we are thinking of beginning a free podcast containing these interviews which will be put up on itunes and other platforms in audio format.
Currently we are testing the waters to see how well this works: We just completed the first one with the NYC band Race to Dawn. Check it out here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=L-cPJqiC2-M
