The pic above finds the guys posing with the label's David Massey and Eric Wong just after performing their new album, This House Is Not for Sale, in its entirety at the Count Basie Theater. Later, Gov. Chris Christie offered to sell the band a "premium bridge access" package. The band performs at the Barrymore Theater in Times Square on 11/21 as part of a Tidal X series in historic venues.
