Hello everyone!!

Happy holidays to one and all.

This is #1 of a bunch of big updates I have coming to this web site.

I AM SELLING SOME GREAT MUSIC GEAR!!!

If you go to the BUY page you will see the fantastic drum and guitar gear I am selling. I am not selling just any gear either. These are some special pieces with some very special memories for me. Everything I am selling has been used to make some of the best music of my career. I am selling this stuff for a couple different reasons:

#1. I have to much gear. I know that is not a bad thing. I've been so very blessed to accrue this gear over the years and there is no reason to keep it all. One of you lucky people should have the opportunity to make great music with this gear like I have. Plus you will know that this stuff has been on some special records. In the descriptions of each piece I state what I use each piece on. Or if you are a collector you will know that you will be owning some very special pieces of equipment. Such as a one of a kind Mapex drum kit (really, they made it for me. It is the only one in that color or sizes) and THE ride cymbal I used on Spock's Beard "V" (It was Neal's favorite. He even sampled it and used on other records).

#2. I am raising money to fund other music projects.

That is basically it. The store is set up to calculate the shipping through UPS and payment will be made through PayPal so hopefully it will be super easy to make the transactions.

I thank you for taking time to look and you should move quick on these things. They will go quick!

All the best, Nick

Hello everyone!

I'm writing to let you all know of a show I have coming up at Molly Malones in LA on November 27th at 9:00pm.
The most wonderful and fabulous Doug Petty, my fellow Tears For Fears bandmate, will be playing the keys and my great friend and songwriting partner Stan Ausmus will be playing guitar, bass, singing...juggling, jumping through rings of fire...in tights! Yes he is wonderful and fabulous too. I'll be singing, playing guitar, bass, percussion, and whatever else I can think of.

I'll be performing some of my new songs which will be released on a new EP of mine in the very near future, some Spock's Beard songs to celebrate the making of our 10th record, and also to celebrate the release of the Kevin Gilbert DVD "Live At The Troubadour" we are also going to throw in some KG favorites.
(click on the link to go and buy it)

It should a really fun set. My good friend Lori Lynner will be doing a set right before me at 8pm. She is a fantastic singer with a really great band so please come early so you don't miss her set.
