Hey Everyone...
I just got a job with JUICE MAGAZINE and will be moving to California in a few weeks. In my not so humble opinion Juice is the best skate mag on the planet and also covers a good amount of surfing and punk rock. It focuses on in depth interviews and great photography covering the roots and history of skating, surfing and music as well as the best of the current crop. Serious dudes like Jay Adams, Tony Alva and Christian Hosoi have graced recent covers. Everyone who knows me knows I love my skateboard...so if you would be so kind to support my future endeavors PLEASE ADD JUICE TO YOUR FRIENDS LIST...And tell 'em Jeff sent you!

Issue 64 just came out and features Jason Jessee on the cover and a killer interview with Dave Alvin of The Blasters! Their song "Marie, Marie" was often playing over the speakers before we took the stage in the last few years.


Check out their website and you can see a few pages of the new issue and if you dig it....subscribe! If you work at a skateshop or record store and want to carry Juice...send a message my way and we will get it worked out!

Side Door

We built a wall inside so there is a divider from the back and front doors. Also built a shelf for the side door section. Great for a band especially, but the dividers can be taken out easily.

Pictures coming soon.

Iowa People: you can get tickets at these fine locations:

SUB CITY on Main Street in Marshalltown
MOHAIR PEAR on College St. in Cedar Falls

You can buy them here.  We are doing tickets to encourage people to travel to our hometown and have fun with us that night.  Please keep in mind that we are playing a hall...it's not very big and there is a chance that this could sell out.  If you are planning on coming i would buy a ticket right away. 

On that note...if you are flying from overseas we will try to help you out as much as possible with rides, a spot to sleep, etc. so send us a message.

Hey everyone.  I am accepting interviews from now until March 15th. 
here are the rules of the game...

1. send all interviews to MLIWinterviews@gmail.com 
2. If it's not submitted by March 15th it probably won't get done. 
3. Please don't ask me questions that I have answered a hundred times.  There is a lot of information on this band out there already! 
4. I am all about taking the time to do interviews for small DIY zines and publications as well as webzines or blogs...but PLEASE send me a physical copy or link when it comes out!  And don't send me an interview if it's never actually gonna see the light of day! 

Lastly...sorry to those that have been waiting on my response for an interview for a while now.  Please resend questions to the email at the top. 

Looking forward to hearing from you and discussing some good shit!
-Jeff
