My schedule has me being pulled in a hundred directions. And I also remember my dad telling me “For the millionth time, stop exaggerating!” Anyway I made this egregious poster so you can all make plans to see me in action, either with my metal trio or with Naked Glory.. I will be chilling thisContinue reading “ACTUALLY SITTING DOWN TODAY”

MOOD SWINGS is seven months old today. I remember when it was born. They grow up so fast… Soon it will want the keys to my car. This album almost didn’t happen for various reasons. Had it not been for Mike Sabatini saying “Send me the songs” last February, the rough demos would have beenContinue reading “THEY GROW UP SO FAST”

Well this is more news than I expected to share but here goes… My song “Never Be The Sane” has been nominated for Best Rock Single Award by One World Music Radio! I did not expect this one at all!! Opened my email yesterday morning and there it was: the certificate that you see above.Continue reading “TWO FOR THE PRICE OF ONE”

What the hell was I doing in Manhattan alone on a Saturday night? Well, I wasn’t totally alone. My daughter Emma needed a ride to an EDM (electronic dance music) concert last night at Terminal 5. She asked me a few days ago “You think you can take me, since my friend can’t?” I admitContinue reading “ALONE IN MANHATTAN”

“Welcome back, Steve!” I heard that over and over last night, and it was very pleasing to my ears. First show back as Steve Bello at Dingbatz for the F–k Cancer benefit gig to support our friend Irene DeMeo. And let me tell you, it was a blast!! Hit the stage at 8:30, banged outContinue reading ““WELCOME BACK, STEVE!””

We had our final rehearsal today, played eight songs so fierce like they owed us money. And now to put almost 7 months of rehearsals to the test. I feel like I am tied to a rocket. Amazing how things take off (hence the title of the blog) once people see results. My friend JonContinue reading “TIED TO A ROCKET”

I didn’t expect to be this busy, especially in the winter time, but it has been moving rather nicely. I learn to catch my breath in between all the running around. I can’t wait for Spring though. Naked Glory played last Saturday at Garvey’s in Monroe, NJ, as part two of the tribute trifecta forContinue reading “NO REST FOR THE HANDSOME”

Back in May 2019, I walked away from performing. I was done, tired of everything, you name it. I was dead set on never touching a stage ever again. The muse has proven me wrong. Yes I have done two shows with Naked Glory and were a lot of fun. But this show I amContinue reading “FIRST SHOW OF 2022…”

After almost three years, I stepped foot on stage at Dingbatz. I said that would never happen ever again. I love being proven wrong. Naked Glory were one of three bands that performed last night, as part of a tribute to the late Steve Ferrigno. We never got to rehearse because of bad weather, soContinue reading “IN THAT ZONE”

When it snows, what do you do? You make a video. Here is the third and final single/video from my latest cd MOOD SWINGS. “Force Quit” debuted at #3 on Banks Radio (Australia) and so people are taking notice of what I consider my angriest song. So here you go, I made yet another trippy/funkyContinue reading “THIRD AND FINAL VIDEO”
