P.S. Our sound:

Dear Logfaces,

When last we spoke… Wait, when did we last speak??

Sorry, friends, our blog-love has been a long time comin'.  It's been slow at Logjam HQ since our ace axeman, EC "Ed", left town for the blustery climes of the Windy City last winter.  However, we once again have old new news to report!

We are proud to tell you that on June 27^th, 2008, our dearly belogged skin-pounder, S. Foxx Fitzgerald, got hitched to his dearly beloved fiancée Lisa (AKA- Sexy Lady Voice 2 on the Logjam hit "Blame it on Rio" [available on CD and cassingle]) at Bubby's in Brooklyn.  It was a fun and lovely night despite Logjam reuniting for the first time since the last time we played (Sometime last year).

Here are some highlights from this magical event:

DJ Amy turns it out on the 1's and 0's

The Playboys of The Western World  - Wedding Rock Doctors!

Rabbi Schmelvis has entered the building!

"Dearly beloved, we are gathered here today to join this hounddog and this hot chick in holy moly matrimony."

Congratulations Matt and Lisa!!!

After a series of heated negotiations with parent company Del Monte Pet Foods, LOGJAM put its paw print on the dotted line and provided the music for a urine-themed interweb game for Meaty Bone® dog biscuits.

You can play "Mark Your Territory" at meatybone.com/markyourterritory.htm right now.

Logfans will recognize the soundtrack as a bastardized, semi-instrumental re-mix of "The South Will Rise Again." (The original track is still available for purchase on itunes and on Logjam's hit album "STUMPED!" available at Target apparently - who knew?)

Commenting on the deal, Sno-Time at the Apollo said, "Logjam did not sell out. I've always appreciated the bold, meaty satisfaction of Meaty Bone® dog biscuits. One time while participating in the Iditarod, my team ran out of regular food and we fed the dogs Meaty Bone® dog biscuits exclusively for the last 400 miles. We lost the race, but they really enjoyed the bold, meaty satisfaction of Meaty Bone® dog biscuits."

P.S. Thanks to Trax and all the Loggers who showed up in San Francisco. You weren't sorry for long.

And now a word from our sponsor...
The bold, meaty satisfaction of Meaty Bone® dog biscuits beats BOREdinary dry biscuits any time. Find them in your local grocer's dog snack section. Tell them Logjam sent you.

...They're Klaus Dinger's!

After a long and arduous search, Logjam is deliriously pleased to announce that we have finally found a replacement for Ol' Whatsisface, the guy that used to play trombone and guitar for us. (No hard feelings, SV68... traitor).

Miracles and magic and dreams come true cannot describe our joy.
With radiant smiles and sparkling hearts we welcome our little boy.

Yes mein damen und herren, Klaus Dinger our new keyboard meister comes to us all the way from Düsseldorf, Germany where he used to be a male model and dancer. His biggest claim to fame is having starred in a music video for the influential electro-punk outfit, D.A.F.


We are thrilled and excited to have him in the family and we invite you to witness his Logjam debut this Thursday when we play in celebration of our drummer, S. Foxx Fitzgerald's, 30th birthday!

Dear Dino DeLaurentis,

We fired up the Logjam bus two weekends ago for a special one day only appearance on Mike's Alternate Reality show on CTV ("It's Yours!") in Staten Island, New York. We even hog-tied SV68 and made him wear his Abe Lincoln beard. It was a gas. The video evidence is viewable below, and there's even more evidence
RIGHT HERE!!!

Good day sir,

P.S. Stay away from the sauerbraten at Killmeyer's. Try the jagerschnitzel instead.

BLOGJAMMERS,

Ever since we began our musical journey, people told us that Logjam was a bad idea.  When we decided to record an album, they said things like "No!" and "Sit!" and "Bad Logjam!"  Then they would hit us across the nose with a newspaper.

Well to these naysayers, Logjam sez: IN YOUR NAYSAYING FACE!

 Check out these TOTALLY AWESOME reviews for the "Stumped!" CD (Logjam's full length debut available on Logclam Records).

 This one is from Razorcake Magazine outta L.A.
(written by venerable, punk rock legend Reverend Nørb!):

And then there's this killer diller from Lollipop Magazine outta Boston:

FINALLY, we get the respect that we sort of deserve!

Thanks to the fans and lovers who believed in us even when they were told by their parents that Logjam, like Santa, the Tooth Fairy and Efrem Zimbalist Jr., didn't really exist.  One log, y'all.

IN OTHER NEWS… Next week Logjam will be recording our first ever television appearance for Staten Island cable access!

Stay tuned for further deets! 

Fondledly yours,
Sno-Time

Hello Ladies and Gentleblogs-

This Saturday is Logjam's last show with SV68.  Our hearts are filled with sadness as Logjam gets ready to say goodbye to "The World's Sexiest Robot" and his rusty golden horn.

Several embarrassing (and completely unfounded) rumors have been spread as to his reasons for his departure.  I'd like to take some time to dispel a few of the nastier rumours:

"Creative differences"
NOT TRUE:
Logjam was never creative.

"He couldn't hack the busy tour schedule we keep (at least one show every two months!) or the physical rigors of being in Logjam."
NOT TRUE:
SV68, who wrote the hit "Back on the Bike," was the most athletic member of the band.  In fact, he once bench pressed a 50 lb. park bench- while the rest of us were sitting on it!

"He made the rest of the band look short."
NOT TRUE:
S. Foxx, EC and I intentionally stand on our knees whenever appearing in public so as to make SV feel more comfortable about being so diminutive (The poor guy is barely over 6 feet tall while the remaining members stand well over 7'5")

"Saggy diapers that leak."
ONLY PARTIALLY TRUE:
While it is true that SV68 has an adult baby fetish, Logjam has always maintained a hiring policy that is strictly free of racial, religious, or sexual discrimination.   Logjam discourages the flow of pee pee and poo poo on stage.  However, we fully support SV68's freedom to do (doo) whatever he wants in the privacy of his own pants.  We are an equal opportunity employer (See below for further details*).  But I regress...

The truth of the matter is that our split is completely amicable. 

However... for those of you who must know "the reason", well, it's hard to say.  I guess it's because SV68 has other, more serious projects he wants to concentrate on. 

Also, he doesn't believe in the American Dream.  And furthermore, he has several impending court cases following his arrest for consorting with a 13 year old boy named Hector.  These charges are, of course, unsubstantiated, and Logjam firmly believes in his innocence despite the fact that Hector sat on his lap an awful lot for our comfort.

In any case, we love SV68 and will miss rockin' out with him!  Come on out to the Knitting Factory on Saturday and help us send him off in style!!

Signing Off Key,
Sno-Time

SNO-TIME & SV68 BEFORE:

SNO-TIME & SV68 AFTER:

*Logjam is looking for a new trombone/guitar god, or, since that's an unlikely combo, somebody who can play either of these.  Holla at us if you or anybody you know is interested!

Dear Doggery,

You can pick your friends and you can pick your nose, but you can't always pick your bandmates. First, SV68 tried to quit, so we demoted him to permanent special guest status in Logjam. Now, we've finally accepted his resignation. But, we are going to squeeze one last huzzah from his tromboney fingers with a farewell to SV68 show on the Knitting Factory main stage next Saturday. A fitting end, as the Knitting Factory is where Logjam began with our first show many moons ago. It's sad day for Logjam, and a happy day for SV68, who has been waiting years for this. If you know any guitarists and/or trombonists, let us know. Seriously, we're looking.

Sadly,
S. Foxx
