last minute

Halloween. I wasnt going to do anything but screw it lets have some fun.

cool

someone actually made a comment on the last post's link about loving us and glad Andy Langer played our song. That could easily have been one of us faking it but it was totally someone else. The only post on the entry.

Apparently they are airing us again this Sunday evening. I will NOT miss it this time. My friend wrote me and said she heard us. He opened the show with our song and she said that she heard him say some complimentary things about our potential.

Getting on this show has been a small dream of mine for some time.

Our next target goal... SXSW baby. SXMFSW

we were on the radio...

We killed it last night. A few screw ups but overall we crushed the hell out of this one.

Yin/Yang

Its weird because these days I feel my life is in equal part shambles and equal part awesome.

We'll just put aside the shambles for today.

We were just contacted by the general manager of do512.com. She said we come highly recommended and offered us a show.

This is cool on different levels. The show itself is going to be massively promoted on do512.com. BUT having the relationship with them is far more valuable to us. In fact its a game changer kind of thing. They have the power to really shine a spotlight on our shows, pulling in reviews and outside exposure we really need. Particularly in November with the "official" CD release.

Its way to early to tell how it will play out but everyone is pretty excited.

this is why i want a dog

amazing...

good weekend

Kevin came down, had a great show, went out and had good times. I know I'm going to regret not documenting it a little more thoroughly but I'm tired.

The Epic Fail of a show

Dallas was a travesty. (okay thats being a bit melodramatic)

My mom came which was cool.

BUT...

The monitor mix was probably the worst we have ever had. I told the guys that this weekend can be summed up with one sentence...

"Bonnaroo sound guys... my balls.."

Here are a few things that made it awful...

1. No Sound check - We were told we are going to play another bands drum set. They didnt show up until it was too late for us to do a proper sound check. The drum set was also a piece of crap. Lesson learned there.

2. Bad weather - It drizzled a lot and finally poured. We were the only band that played before the whole show was canceled. Which didn't matter anyway because...

3. No one was there - We were playing to a HUGE empty field. Maybe 15 people TOPS. This would have sucked in a smaller venue but was just ridiculous in this vast wide open plot of land. Funny actually.

I told the guys we are just taking our knocks. Every show after this will be a better one. Man this show blew.

But we sold some shirts and 3 EPs. That was seriously a HUGE percentage of the people there.
