sup yall!

anyways, how often? it's that time of year again, when the empress splits up and goes there seperate ways for a week in order to have some fun in the sun!

here's what everyone is going to be doing!

paul and marc: well AS YOU ALL KNOW these lads fancy the cayman islands when the springtime arrives. I expect paul and marc to BOTH makes some GREAT dives this year. I want more pictures of paul hanging out in his trunks with that big burly beard glistening with sun-lit water droplets! i'm sure old marc will be posting pics of him himself climbing the highest coconut trees, as always! the empress as a whole wishes them well on their journeys to the caribean sea! look out for pirates boys!

zackary: zack will be spending his time down in lovely marco island, where old jewish people go to die. no really though, it's a great time! while down on the beach i'm sure he will a)finish up raymond e feist's "the riftwar saga", b) play and finish all of his unplayed gameboy games (lunar nights, final fantasy VI advance, etc) and c) get a very nice tan! shalom zackary, may your eyes shine in the sun for all eternity!

emile: Emile, diligant and steadfast as always, will be cooking delish! meals for everyone at the cedar beige. the fellow has been working ever hard lately, saving money up to get his own place. i'm sure whilst the vacation is in effect, many wonderful times will be had with drink and friendly company alike! cheers brother emile!

mike: old mike will no doubt be kicking it free, with his lady from the west coming in for a visit. expect mike to be doing the following: practicing his drums, not getting arrested, not taming his mane hair. eastborough is a good enough destination as any when it comes to this time of the year. god speed good micheal, on all of your sexual endeavors!

what a great show we had last night. drink was had by all. rock was shared by many.

so until the 26th, when the empress returns to its burden of rocking souls loose, may everyone have a merry spring break!

come to the barbeque and buy our cd on the 27th of april, its going to be a hot jam!

thats right its done and we are oh so very proud of the time and effort we put forth on this bitch.

it's got a really long title, but shortened the title is "upon the rotting sea", 9 songs long.

record release (all ages, plus a bar show with our friends) will be in early to mid april.

Nail in the Coffin is putting this one out. JT did the art and it is sick as fuck.

Sara catpantalones Hewlitt masterson is doing packaging and layout with Jeff eaton of pride of gumbo doing printing.

We recorded, mixed, and mastered it at planet paul with the almighty archangel gabriel at the console. he is a gentleman and a scholar AND an artist.

produced by us gay dudes, torin "the rodd" andersen and archangel gabriel.

old lovely georgia sutton, master of keys, tickles the ivories for us.

songs range in length from 2 to 15 minutes.

the whole shebang clocks in at 66 minutes.

can wait for you all to hear it, posting songs right after i post this blog, yall.
