Current mood:  morose

Hey everybody!

Recording Status!
So as of right now, all of the drums, bass, and guitar are done! Most of the vocals are done (with the exception of three songs, all belonging to me >_<) and as soon as that's done, it's on to horns and then all of the extra stuff (the "icing on top of the cake", if you will)

Artwork Status!
I'd say this is about half-way done, but who knows?! We're pretty lazy. As of now, you can still expect plenty of gummy bears. And for the hell of it, we've been playing around with light grafitti:

..

Member Status!
Probably the biggest news of all here is the announcement of the biopic based around one of our very own members, Brian Reinhard. The title you ask? Live Free or Rein-HARD: The Story of Brian Reinhard. Expect it around 2010. Support it if you have a facebook.

Tracklisting Status!
So we've finally decided on the FINAL TRACKLISTING. It looks something like this:
   1.   This Isn't Where...*
   2.   The Sausage Fest!**

   3.   No Nudes is Good Nudes**
   4.   Internet Girl**
   5.   E.Q.E*
   6.   Nick's Crazy Robo Trip!**
   7.   Ska Girls*
   8.   40oz Slurpee To Freedom*
   9.   Russian Girl**
   10.  Zoning Out**
* You've never heard.
**You've probably heard, but 10x more awesome.  

That's all for now, go read Harry Potter, see Westbound Train this Saturday (I'll be there), and stay cool. I'm outtie 5000. Ciao.

UPDATES:

2. Once finished recording, we're planning on pressing cds, complete with inlays and album art. We're ALSO going to have them SUPER CHEAP! 4U! AMAZING!

3. On that note, about half of the album art has been completed. But you can't see it now.

4. Tracking of the bass on four songs have been completed. BUT! ITS BROKEN. BASS-ICALLY. Don't worry, we're getting it fixed, then it's ONTO VOX!

Here's a pic of Cogan laying down those sick lines:

5. New profile picture. Bunnies+Toy Car+Rainbow>Chow Chow+Rainbow?!?! Give me your opinion.

That's all for now. Stay cool. Cause, you know, it's pretty hot out.

HEY BEST FANBASE EVER!

First of all, last night's show was ballin. That's about all. It was probably our best show, so if you missed it, that's a shame I guess.

Down to bidness: We're sick of our current Top 12. We want the best of you to be there (and rightfully so). Here's the scoop. The first 12 of you to put a sweet-ass Skankin' With Steve! quote as your MySpace name & message us about it will be victorious.

good luck.

Shows
So tommorow is a show we've been looking forward to for a while, as we are sharing the stage with one of my personal favorite bands, Bomb the Music Industry, along with other awesome bands, Patent Pending and 10 Cents Short. We go on early (around 6:50-7:20), but you might as well get there early and hear alllll of the bands.

Music
After this, we plan to record some new songs, rerecord some old ones, and put them in one neat package. Hopefully it will be something awesome (get it?) that we can shop around to the major labels.

Members

Stephen Yoon (Left)

This handsome Asian musical mercenary(-dave), currently attending Rutgers along with members Cogan Noll and Evan Roth, is a true virtuoso of the saxophone. Say hi to him at some point.


News
Anyways, to wrap all this up, you could look forward to new music, more shows, and probably more pictures of dogs superimposed upon rainbows in following weeks (at this rate, maybe even
cats). See ya later!

Don't you love how all of myspace is getting spammed by these comments? I do.  Thanks for all of the comments (that don't involve penis size and iPhones). Don't be afraid to send us an email or myspace message!

PS. Hope everyone is getting excited for the summer!

    Hey Everybody!!!!

I can't wait to be back in NJ to play another show and I hope that everyone can make it! We are now playing second to last, right behind The Nerd Who Ate St. Louis, so we're pumped! Anyways, I just created a site at GetTheDoIt.com (weird name) that will help us get future shows/more fans so if you would, take the link over there and rate "The Sausage Fest" and "Internet Girl" (I'm not saying rate it a 10, but it'd be really great if you did ).

Here's the link

40oz Slurpee To Freedom

Wrote this song, but never finished it completely. There are two different versions of this song, one with trombone and synth as you hear right now and the other with Dipika's vocals and a sax take that was shit. Wanted to originally add a lot of instruments to the end of it, but never got to. I remember writing the end of this song (pretty much already written by Evan) in Dave's backyard on a sunny day with our shoes off, each with a 40oz slurpee and an acoustic guitar.
