i read somewhere that when it gets cold enough, your breath will freeze 
as you exhale and fall to the ground as ice. it's not quite that cold 
here in north carolina, but single-digit temperatures make the 
difference seem academic.
the holidays are over, the new year's been rung in (it was definitely a 
major key-- E, i'm pretty sure), and oh-nine, as it will be known, is 
underway-- kemper thinks next year should be known as "oh-ten", and i 
concur.
things aren't what they used to be, which is wholly good, but they 
aren't quite what they're going to be, either, which is also kind of good.
hope springs infernal in the human stressed.

rolling stone had a feature on ambien tripping. they also made me want 
to buy the new pavement and rem reissues.
this after britney on the cover and an article praising kanye as 'this 
generation's prince.'
are they huffing kerosene? do they think kanye can even approach 'let's 
pretend we're married'?
i only read it because cassi left it on the counter at work and there's 
no more david sedaris that i haven't read and i didn't feel like plowing 
the rest of the way through american tragedy even though wendy won't 
leave me alone until i do.
and, for some reason, i can only focus on this andrew jackson biography 
in the middle of the night in bed-- never at work.

'i am a waterfall', a song off our upcoming record, is available on the 
innerwebs. jason hall's e-bow is now a worldwide institution. space, even.
dreamed i was drinking ny-quil and when i woke up, i was asleep.
i know that owsley's gone to queensland to make wearable art, but you'd 
think someone woulda stepped in to fill the void. pun intended.


lunge at it with sticks and always take your eye off the ball.

I am very happy to say that the new Western Civ album, produced and engineered by Mitch Easter is fully mixed and ready to go to mastering and replication!!

I am extremely happy with the results and can't wait to share it!! That said, we are not going to officially release it until Jan. 2009, at the suggestion of our PR folks. I'm going to have a hard time waiting that long, but they seem to know what they are doing, so I guess I'll have to contain myself! I'm going to attempt to leak a track or two before then and we are taking pre-orders right now! If you want to put your name on the list drop me an e-mail at:

mistydawn(at)westerncivrock.com

BTW...thanks again for all the pre-orders, the list is really getting a lot bigger than I expected! You guys ROCK!!! :)

I'll have more info and details soon!

Till Then,
Misty Dawn
