Saturday night redemption
So, our last bar show was literally attended by about 6 people. We’ve set the bar (no pun intended) pretty high and are shooting to double that total tomorrow night at Dante’s. Be part of the cool crowd and show up early to rock. Even more reason to attend are the two headliners, Visqueen and Kleveland. Both are stellar bands and will rock your face. Aside from the music you have drinks, pizza and doughnuts all within a 300 yard radius. Good times. Remember, we’re up first so arrive early!
Uhhhm, never mind
So we got an e-mail late this afternoon to tell us the show tonight is canceled. There’s some long excuse about city inspectors and building changes. The good news is we no longer have to endure a 7 band set. The bad news is there is no makeup date in sight. Ughhh.
Tonight Reid’s, tomorrow the world
Tonight we’re playing at Reid’s Pit Stop in Longview, WA with Accidental Gun Death and 5 other bands which you can see on the flyer below. Hard to believe it’s been over a year since we’ve been back. Scarier still is that this will be our 20th show there. Hopefully it will not suck. Also, for the first time in a long time we’ll have new shirts at this show. Check it out if you live in the area!
Wednesday is rock night, part two.
Tonight we’re playing at the Ash Street in Portland with No Secrets Between Sailors and our longtime friends Creepsville 666 who is on tour and based in Phoenix, AZ. A few of the members used to play in a band called Coldsnap 9. If you’ve followed us for a while you may recognize the name as we’ve played quite a few shows with back in the day. In fact you can even see Justin rocking one of their shirts inside ‘The Return’. If you have the means and the time come check it out.
More ways to spend your hard earned money
Our label New School Records has a new web store. They are about as DIY as you can get so check it out. Also, we finally added some shows in Longview and Bend. It’s like 1998 all over again.
Your new favorite internet radio show
There’s a cool internet radio show called Punk Rock Demo that’s been playing our music periodically over the past year. This is a long overdue plug for their show. Check them out as they have a great variety of the new and old, as well as the big and small.
Cram it up your ass. Ass, ass, ass.
Come one, come all as we are playing with Guttermouth and The Bullies tonight in Portland at the Hawthorne Theater. It’s hard to believe the first time we opened for Guttermouth was 8 years ago. I think this will be our 4th show with them which is kind of cool. If you do make it to the show be sure to ask about the box of “free stuff” which contains lots of “stuff” that is “free”. We also call it the “box of old comps, bad demos, lame DVD’s and other shit that was can’t sell”.
Happy new year. Again.
Every new year we joke with ourselves that there’s no way we’ll still be playing at the following new year. Amazingly, we’ve said that fourteen years in a row now. To start off the new year we got some good news and will be playing with Guttermouth in Portland. It’s on Jan 24th and tickets are available at TicketsWest. Needless to say, things are starting off well. Hope everyone has a good 2009!
Worst flyer ever?
We were browsing through some old flyers and found this gem to promote one of our shows w/ Thirty3 a few years ago. Sometimes being wrong just feels so right.
