Please join us tonight for an escapade at Chicago's famous Empty Bottle.  The show begins at 10 and we headline at 12.  Your presence is required to ensure a great evening with good people music, and drinks.

See you tonight,
All Thins Lucid

P.S. For those of you who know the mastermind behind the EP Theater, Jason Ewers, we will be celebrating his day of birth tonight at the bottle. Come out and buy the good ol' boy a drink!

Tonight is no ordinary show.  PechaKucha Night brings prominent and emerging creative minds together for an evening of lightning-fast presentations, networking and fun. The PechaKucha format, where a dozen or so presenters are given 20 slides each shown for 20 seconds to reveal their passions, work and inspirations, is now held in over 190 cities around the world. Chicago events are among the most popular, with over 250 people in attendance at each event. Now a staple on the Chicago creative calendar, PechaKucha Night has made its home at Martyrs' club on the city's North Lincoln Avenue.

All Things Lucid has been asked to be the first band to present for the Chicago event.  We'll be breaking down our process of writing a song as individuals, and as a band.

After all the presentations we'll be doing an encore set to kick off our great June schedule.  We recommend either getting tickets in advance or arriving early as the event normally sells out.  8:00PM $10

We need you this summer because it just got hot and you keep us cool. It all starts June 2nd. On that date we will be performing in Pecha Kucha Night at the very cool Martyrs' in Chicago. We are one of the presenters along with other passionate artists ranging from graphic designers to gardeners. Our presentation will let you in on the secret method of our song writing and then you can hear the songs for yourself when we play a set at the end of the night.

Also, we shot a short film this past winter and we'll be pre-releasing it/giving it away at Pecha Kucha Night. You won't have another chance to score the film until the new album comes out. Which brings me to the next point:

The new album is done and in the mastering/pressing phase!
We've released two unmastered tracks on our myspace. Let It Begin and Antibiotics. Make sure to check them out! Lasty, June 13th we will be playing The Empty Bottle and to top off the awesome month, we will be playing Schubas on June 30th!

OK, let's re-cap:


-Listen to some new tracks from the upcoming album here

-Come to Pecha Kucha on June 2nd, check out our presentation, and get an early release of our new short film

-Rock with us at the Empty Bottle on Saturday June 13th

Slide on over to Schubas on June 30th for a monumental Tuesday night


Lets pour champagne on this summer!

THE WEEK : Kostal & Paste : The Monk Whistles : Lucid In The Kitchen
------------------------------------------------------------------

We here at Kilo Records understand that this past winter in Chicago was, well long, brutal, frigid, and just straight up cold. So to help you shake off those memories of freezing your ass off while waiting for another late CTA bus, we give you THE WEEK. Pretentious? Yes, of course. THE WEEK shall be spiced, sliced, and diced up with design, music, and enough dancing room to go around. It's a full course meal, so we hope you're hungry:

  • 4/4 - Michael Kostal will be taking part in the biggest annual design competition in Chicago, Cut&Paste. Doors start at 7PM tomorrow night at the Congress theater.

  • 4/6 - The Loneliest Monk returns to the Whistler in Logan Square. An intimate evening with one the most talked about two piece bands in Chicago right now. Opening at 9PM for Brooklyn's Asa Ransom. No Cover.

  • 4/9 - All Things Lucid will be kicking some summer into you this Thursday at the Beat Kitchen. We say this a lot, but you really don't want to miss this show. Opening at 9PM for Chicago's own REGO. Pick up your tickets here.


Kilo Records!

XOXO

Due to the city trying to pull a fast one on the venue were scheduled to play at, our two upcoming shows were canceled. HOWEVER, we have been graciously asked to open up for REGO at the Beat Kitchen on April 9th, and we could not be more excited! So mark your calenders, dust off your Spring clothes, and come enjoy an evening of live music and tomfoolery. Check out this fantastic poster Joelle (Jeff's lovely wife) put together for the event.



See you there!

We have been feverishly and intensely working out the final bits and parts to our next LP (which means Long Play, which was oddly enough Jeff's nickname in college). We are extremely excited for you to hear this album. I mean look at our nipples. Definitely excited! You will be in for a treat with this album. It will be released on vinyl but along with the vinyl purchase you will get a CD of the album; Not to mention a short video featuring All Things Lucid and some great art work for your visual pleasure too!

We have some exciting shows lining up for the spring and summer (dates to be released soon). These dates include shows at Schubas, Empty Bottle, Kryptonite and EP Theater to name a few, and we are playing a last minute performance at Quenchers on March 5th with a very cool band out of Austin, TX called The Frontier Brothers.

Here is a current personal insight into the members of All Things Lucid:

Miles-He is currently getting shorter and trying to change his name to Serial Number 73526578

Kostal-He is currently thinking of something and mastering the fine art of Sleeping.

Jeff-He is currently building mass and gazing upon his two second runner up Paper Boy awards.

Paul-He is currently.....well we can't really say.

See you at the next show!

The new year is here and we couldn't be more excited to spend the first Friday of it at the Hideout. A special night indeed. Tonight we release the new EP "Don't Put The Record On". A three song digital release of some tracks we laid down about a year ago at Studio Chicago. Tonight will be the only evening the EP will be available in physical form. There are only 20 available so make sure to grab one early on.

Also it's not too late to pre-order your tickets tonight and get a free All Things Lucid shirt at the door! Tickets are $8. Order em here.

Doors are at 9:30 and Tell Your Friends open at 10:00. If you haven't heard their song 'Dance If You're With Us', I highly recommend you check it out.

We have more exciting news to unveil shortly. Stay tuned and we'll see you tonight,

All Things Lucid
