Google Maps.
It's actually been the base for Smallfish on occasion. Especially during long tours of NJ.
Also, it is only a few miles from where Smallfish CD's come from. Who knew storks lived in PA?
Not only is this a BiSynodical event, but it is only five hours from the O-fish-al Smallfish(al) personal trainer!
So, while in town, the boys will take a jog over to the other side of the state.
Hopefully, this isn't follow the leadership camp. Otherwise the camp would be mobile and there would be no need to list the city.
As it stands (or sits), a dear deer friend of Smallfish gave a yell about this gig and Evan and Eric couldn't be more excited.
This one Promises to be later in the year than the first.
No joking!
Hey! I've been there before!
You were there and you were there.
And this Calender event sounded like a post from the Wizard of Oz.
See you at 7PM dull (or sharp).
Can this be right?
Our calendar says this VBS is only three days!
Anyway, people come from all over ND for this one. You should too.
I've just been informed that it is four days. Sorry for the confusion.
Smallfish is takin' over the park! Won't the FL state park system be surprised? Just kiddin' But check out O'Leno
Youth Gathering! check it out!
13.1 miles at Disney in Orlando. Five people representing Smallfish, running to raise money for the Shingle Creek preserve project. Save the Florida wetlands, or laugh at slow fish!

Madison, WI for a youth convention
Holy Cow! What an awesomely tiring weekend... Early results are showing the following on the pasta survey: 36% Bowtie 13% Angel Hair 8% Spiral 8% Penne and the rest being a pretty near toss-up... Also, a huge thanks to the dude who took our video camera from our booth and recorded the concert at The Way cafe. We don't know who you are, but you rock! I need to take a nap for now, but more info will be hitting the site after I catch up on sleep...
You've probably read about this event for years.
It is the location where part of Sushi was recorded.
It's been influential in the formation of Smallfish's stage presence.
Plus, it is where folks first called Evan, Bucky and Eric, that guy that looks the artist formerly know as Evan now known as Bucky.
A special thank you goes to the following fans:
Dave & Richele Kosmowski - Tuna in Grand Forks, ND
Palooza - Tuna in Chicago-ish area
Evan Lefloch - Tuna in a different city every week
Eric Martin - Tuna near Portland (most of the time)
Gary Kovar - Tuna in the Smallfish office
Bucky Lefloch - Tuna in Tampa
Nemo - Grouper in Orlando
Mr. Ray - Grouper from ND
We love our fans and we wish we could think of a thousand ways to get you involved. One way you can help us out is to donate a few bucks. There are three donor levels: Grouper, Mackerel, and Tuna.
Grouper: As a Grouper you get a limited edition t-shirt that declares to all that wish to read that you are a grouper.
Mackerel: Mackerels also receive the t-shirt, but in addition a CD of tracks we literally left on the recording room floor, stepped on, picked up, dusted off and burned to a CD before sending it to you.
Tuna: Alright big Tuna, the CD, the Shirt and Evan writing you a custom song for your voicemail, or ringtone, or computer startup sound.
No billing info is collected now. It will be collected over the phone by Evan himself.
Smallfish History - Abridged
When Evan was a wee lad, living on Tampa Bay, he liked to fish...a lot.
Later, while attending Rollins College in Orlando, FL he had a professor ask him if we would rather be a small fish in a big pond or a big fish in a small pond.
After pondering the fish/pond question for a bit, Evan replied, "I'd rather be a small fish in a big pond because then I'd always have room to grow."
Some years later while in the real world he read this book about a guy who fed 5,000 people with a couple of loaves and a few smallfish. The fish weren't a big part of the story, but they fed people because they were blessed by God.
Evan, seeing an opportunity to find new spots to fish, grow and share the blessings he had received from God, started Smallfish in 1999. Since then he's played in churches, living rooms, beaches, dorms, domes, hotels, boats and backyards across the world for crowds of 3 to crowds of 45,000.
Smallfish isn't a big part of the story, but Evan still hits the road as often as possible to feed people and to be fed.
Concert InfoWe try to keep the booking process as simple as possible.
Step 1: Smallfish and you (the host) agree on a date and a fee.
Step 2: A deposit (1/3 of the fee + travel cost*) is due with the contract to secure the concert date.
Step 3: The remainder is due the day of the event.
Step 4: Sit back relax and enjoy the show.
*travel cost? We wish that we could teleport to your location, and if you have a big fax machine, we're willing to give it a shot. However, in most cases faxing Evan and Eric doesn't work out (instruments make the trip fine). In that case we request that you pay for Evan and Eric's airfare. To keep these costs reasonable we fly Southwest. This allows us to give you the exact cost of travel (once we know where you are and when we need to fly). So, no surprises!
You can email booking@smallfishadventures.com or call 813/220-0014.
We try to keep travel costs as low as possible by holding tightly onto the wheel well of a plane heading your direction. We hope you understand that sometimes this is not possible. In those circumstances we fly Southwest (and pass the saving onto you). We require those low travel costs as part of the deposit before an event.
Do you need a host home?
Usually yes! It should be easy though since the band is just two people. Stick Evan and Eric with whoever has a couple free couches. They're both fun to have around and I bet if you ask nice they'll make you breakfast.
Do you sell CD's and stuff at concerts/retreats?
Yeah, we do. If you can't wait until then, head over to CD Baby. However, all we need is a spot with a table.
What do I need to provide for the concert?
Excited People! Really, that's it. Oh yeah, a power outlet would be nice as well. Evan has no water requests, food requests, room temperature requests or any of the other funny things performers usually want.
What do you sound like?
I'm glad you asked. Smallfish sounds like Billy Joel and Dave Matthews decided to add a kazoo ensemble to their sound.
