hey everyone!

our song "On the Wagon" was featured on WXRT last night on Local Anesthetic with Richard Milne.  The show will re-air tomorrow (Tuesday 10/7) at 7:30PM and Thursday (10/9) at 10:45PM.  If you're in the Chicago area, you can tune your dial to 93.1FM.  If not, check out www.wxrt.com to stream the show online.

ALSO, our Reggie's show that was cancelled has now been uncancelled. I'm turning 26 at midnight. Cheap beer & tasty eats.  If you play in a cool band & would like to join the bill, send us an e-mail (wallydogger@gmail.com).

so i'm super bummed we haven't received ANY responses to our music video contest.  maybe you're a little intimated..."pauly, i don't know how to make a music video!  how could i possibly submit something for your silly little contest?" 

well, we're not expecting the next Thriller or anything.  we're looking for simple fan/friend-made videos for our song "Tramp Stamp" - you can download for free on our profile.  it doesn't have to be fancy, it doesn't even have to make sense.  our friend Anna made one for Rock & Roll is Back featuring pics of the bass player from Marilyn Manson...

see?  you don't even need a camcorder, you can use random pics online.  so make a music video, post it to YouTube and please take this $100 & merch pack we're trying to give away.  so far the competition is fierce (there's 0 people you're competing against!).  you've obviously got some time on your hands if you're reading this blog.

in other news, I saw an interview with a dude name Christian Lander on Carson Daily last night.  he wrote a book called "The Definitive Guide to Stuff White People Like."   He also has a hilarious blog about the same thing.  Here's an entry I found especially funny...

61: Bicycles:

hey everybody!

wow, it seems like forever since I last wrote.  the summer will do that I guess, which a good thing (no one should spend 80 degree days in front of a computer).  so maybe I should fill you in on our happenings?

Donehoo is the proud father of a baby boy named Liam.  he has a onesie that says, "I'm big in Japan."  it's pretty awesome.  I wish they made onesies for adults, I'd wear one everyday. 

Swerve moved down the street from me.  he lives next door to a frozen custard shop called Scooter's.  they make something called The Elvis, which is Vanilla Custard, Reese's Peanut Butter Cup & Bananas...it's probably the best thing you've ever tasted.

my hair is getting really long (more out of laziness than a fashion statement).  I lost my iPod, which really stinks because I was having a lot of fun doing those podcasts for you guys.  I've become obsessed with videos of people doing pranks on YouTube.  I can only imagine the dumb shit I would've broadcasted if I had this YouTube thing when I was in high school.  I especially love the penny prankster, have you seen this dude yet?

our latest record is all printed up and can be delivered to your door (CD Baby) or through cyberspace (iTunes).  or you can buy it at one of our shows...we'll even take your pennies!

we're headed back on the road for some shows this week & this later this fall.  here's what we've got booked for far...

wed. 9/3 - silvie's (chicago)
thurs. 9/4 - iowa city yacht club (iowa city, IA)
fri. 9/5 - box awesome (lincoln, NE)
