Hey, we haven't been as active on here as normal, because I (Eric) am trying to wind up grad school, because Max's place of work (Sleepy Hollow Sports Park in Des Moines) keeps him stupid busy with a renaissance faire and all sorts of Halloween stuff, and because Nick is laying in some laboratory being injected with dangerous new drugs in exchange for money.

But that doesn't mean the good times have to stop!

Our new album, "Get Confident, Stupid!" is now on iTunes, and I think you should go check it out. Why? I really think you'll like it. I don't care who is reading this, you will like it. The lyrics are more meaningful, the music is crafted way more intricately, the production is top-notch, and you're just going to want to sing along. So go to iTunes and let us know what you think!

Also, Max and I played an acoustic set this past Saturday for our friend Brent Houzenga to celebrate the opening of his exhibit at the Des Moines Social Club. If you're in the area, go to 1408 Locust and check it out.

Speaking of acoustic sets, we're doing it again 8:30 p.m. THIS THURSDAY at Iowa Central Community College in Fort Dodge, Iowa. And we're gonna play for almost TWO HOURS! Holy crap! Come here songs you haven't heard since Shep was a pup.

So pretty soon I'll have my master's degree, Max will have a weekend off, and Nick will have a third penis. Until then, keep checking us out, keep letting us know what you like (or don't like), and we'll see you sooooooon!!!

Hearts and stars and moons-
Eric (HFS)
