Who'd a thunk?

So the last few months I've been a bit tied down with the whole band business, so I'm sorry if I've seemed anti-social or inaccesible ( Read more... )

Good job sir. That feeling is a good one. It's why I do photography even though I'm spending way more on it than I make. To get that reaction, to push some buttons and have people moved by it in some way, is special.

Do you by chance have any video for those of us who aren't anywhere near and couldn't make it?

I think that's one thing that separates the type of artist some people are. You'd do it regardless of any financial reward, it's the reward from the audience that makes it worth it.

There is a video, I'll see it this weekend and then figure out what I can do to make it available and at least post some of it online

We really need to make it out to one of your shows. Don't take it personally because we haven't yet. We really don't leave the city we live in much less venture an hour away. Shannon and I have talked about it and we plan to get out a little more in the future. I'll make sure one of your shows is one of those times. I love the stuff you played for us and I'm sure it's even better live.

Yeah Howell is a bit of a trip. The good thing is that we're being asked to do a lot of shows, so there ought to be plenty of opportunities.

Remember, you don't have to go out as much when you throw awesome parties at your house and bring the people to you;)

Thanks for your feedback, it lets me know that despite being a bit mad, at least it's not futile.

I am honored to have such a talented bloke as a roomie and am happy to hear about your many successes. Keep up the good work!

We may call upon they video wizardry in the near future. You know I'm retarded at understanding anything that has a plug... or boobs.

really sad I missed it. if i know of your next show in advance, maybe a vacation is called for. btw i've been having great luck recording shows with a zoom h2 digital recorder. a little eq and some compression and it like i was there all over again. hope to catch the next one.

We're actually doing quite a few shows, and they sort of keep lining up for us.

We have gigs Feb, 27th March 7th and 28th, and April 11th so far. We're going to see about the DEMF as well as Land of NOD in Jackson MI

I'd be honored if you came all the way from WI for a show.

Dirty show performance was a bang-up job. Where will you all be next?

FYI: I never let creepy men store drums and/or bicycles at my house...therefore you aren't creepy.

Were you there? Why didn't you throw me a slap in the mouth and say "hallo"?

Lol, that bike is still there isn't it?

We'll be at Luna Feb 27th (short 20 minute set) The Works in Detroit March 7th and 28th, and the Ritz in Warren Aprill 11th. We've been getting a lot of offers to play as well.

Thanks for coming out!!!
