Welcome
First, there was a bang - a really big bang. A little while later, campfire music crawled out of the acoustic slime and... well... that's where we come in.
Never daunted by the challenges, never really sure what we're doing, but always firm in our convictions to spread the unique magic that is campfire music.

VIRTUAL CAMPFIRE RETURNS!! (EXTREMELY IMPORTANT SHOW)
Sunday, June 2nd, 2pm - 5pm at Project Barley
Exclusive interview with Campfire Band Weekly:
CBW: So you guys are playing Project Barley in Lomita on Sunday June 2nd at 2pm?
Ben: We prefer not to get into specifics, but yes.
CBW: We understand this will be one of the most important shows the Virtual Campfire has ever done. Do you care to elaborate?
Mark: We wish we could. All we can do at this stage is confirm the importance.
Steve: We also can stress the importance.
Mark: Yes, that we can also stress the importance.
CBW: Is there any truth to the rumor that Smokey the Bear himself is going to leave the forest to attend this show in Lomita?
Chris: We can’t answer that. We wish we could, we just can’t.
CBW: What if a forest fire burns out of control due to carelessness, and it comes out the Smokey the Bear wasn’t telling people to be careful because he was at the Virtual Campfire show?
Brian: We are not here to get any bear in trouble. We just want to let the campfire fans know that this show is important. Really important. We really can’t say anymore.
Ben: And he’s not Smokey the Bear, he’s just Smokey Bear. Also, the creature commonly known as Frankenstein isn’t Frankenstein. It is really Frankenstein’s monster.
Steve: And Mama Cass did not die from a ham sandwich. Don’t blame the ham.
CBW: Will the great marshmallow shortage of the Spring of 2024 that is flooding all news coverage be addressed at your show? Is that why this show is so important?
Eric: Look, we all want marshmallows back in the store and back around campfires. And we would like to discuss exactly what we are doing to combat that. But we can’t.
CBW: One last question. Who put the itching powder in the sleeping bag at the last Virtual Campfire campout?
Mark: We are not authorized to discuss that incident any further. Not when there so many important things happening at this Virtual Campfire gig at Project Barley on Sunday June 2 at 2pm.
CBW: Final question. What about the children? Is anybody thinking about the children?

Virtual Campfire Record Release Party II: A Sunday Afternoon Songfest
Sunday, January 7th, 2pm - 5pm at Project Barley
The Virtual Campfire will make a triumphant return to Project Barley to celebrate the streaming release of their brand new record, "In Defense of Campfire Music".
The brand new record was previously available only on vinyl, 8 track, and reel-to-reel.
But starting on January 7th, the new record will be um, triumphantly released to all streaming services, including Spotify, Apple Music, Pandora, MySpace, and Napster.
In summary, this will be a triumph.
The band was recently made aware by fax that such streaming services exist. They immediately held a press conference on Prodigy online. Speaking form the band rotary phone, Mark Karmelich (head of band IT) said "If such streaming services really exists, please send us the contract with carbon copies to all band members immediately, harumph, harumph, harumph."
Project Barley serves the best beer in Lomita, and the Virtual Campfire sounds better after the 4th brew. We're gonna sing, laugh, and have fun for once. Let's do this.
Album Release Party and Singalong!
It's almost here! Virtual Campfire is finally releasing its long-awaited (and much-anticipated) second album, "In Defense of Campfire Music" Sunday afternoon 1/29, 2pm to 5pm at Project Barley in Lomita, CA. The band will attempt a complete run-through of the album - without a net. Come witness the agony and the ecstacy! There will be fun games and prizes and, of course, CDs and vinyl for sale. So come on out to a terrific brewery and enjoy a wide selection of beers, some of the best pizza around and the unique vibe that is the VC!
