Was anyone in here around in 98?
Kind of a busy month. We have lots of shows coming up, including one with Only Crime tonight and a trip to Seattle next weekend. The biggest show for us is getting to play with Bomf! on Feb 10th at the Tonic Lounge. For those who haven’t know us for very long Bomf! was probably our favorite band to play with between ’97 and ’99. Great band, great guys and great memories. This is their reunion show and to cap it off Lopez will be playing as well. Total trip down memory lane. Can’t wait to throw beer at Brent and reminisce about monster burger at EJ’s. On another topic what you probably don’t know is that we actually did some recording this month. We went down to Eugene for two days to record demos with our friend Sam at Take92 studios. We actually did tracks for 18 new songs. We haven’t really done the demo thing before so hopefully it’ll help us get a solid album. We’re hoping to book the studio time for the “real” recording at some point during the month so stay tuned.
Everything must go
We’re just about sold out of almost all of our merch. What do we have on hand? Copies of Rise Again and some devil girl posters. Everything else is offically gone even including ‘The Return’. Good news is that means it’s time for some new merchandise which is long overdue. That should be coming a few months into 2007 so stay tuned. Since it’s the end of the year thanks again for everyone who stuck with us in 2006. We wouldn’t still be doing this if it wasn’t for you. Well, ok maybe we would. Everyone have a good holiday!
The Living End
If you are planning on going to The Living End show you might get a move on buying tickets in advance. With the addition of The Briggs to the bill this is turning out to be a killer show!
The Return is almost gone
So it seems we are down to the last twenty copies of ‘The Return’. If you want one directly from us you’ll want to order that soon. Check the merchandise page for details!
The Independents are rad dudes
Our three shows with The Independents were a blast. If you got to check one out then pat yourself on the back. In an unusual twist we actually don’t have a proper Halloween show lined up this year due to vacations. We will be playing in Eugene on Oct 30th w/ Left Alone. Still not sure if any blood will make an appearance for that show but it should be fun. To get in the spirit check out our MySpace page as we have a special song of the month available for your listening pleasure.
Back from the NSR Mini-Tour
We’re home from the “tour” and despite being short it was a blast. Special props to Mourningstar and Top Of The Fair for being cool as hell. Got a few weeks and then we have three shows in the NW with The Independents. Check one out if you can!
Is it really a tour if you can sleep at home?
Twin Falls was awesome, Missoula was cool, Seattle/Tacoma sucked huge sweaty balls. If you can try to check one of the three remaining shows. Do it because you like our band, but also do it because Mourningstar and Top Of The Fair are both 2000 miles from home and both are having major van troubles. Last nights 10 hour drive to a cancelled show didn’t help. Every person through the door and every cd/shirt purchase helps more than you’d ever know.
Some record labels actually do things.
Well, we’re getting ready to leave to play the NW dates of the New School Records tour. Should be cool and we’re stoked to meet the other bands. If you are in the NW try and check out a show!
Shows outside of Portland?
Not much new here. Played a few shows last week so thanks to those who checked them out. Next shows should be in September for a few dates on the still evolving New School Records tour.
