hey folks
the 'so proudly we fail forever' tour's all booked, and we're packing our layers to cross this coldass country once again! this time around its our own tour, and the shows are mostly at bars, which is a good thing cuz (a) the stages are lower (so no re-breaking of ms. failure's foot, jumping off 7-ft stages!), and (b) we get to hang out with y'all...so some good times shall be had! the list is final, so if we're not coming to your city, we apologize, but hey, we're making a roadtrip across the country, so if the closest one is a few hours away, why not make a roadtrip too? fun for all! for some cities we're not hitting, we'll be doing more canadian stuff in the new year, so hold tight....also, when possible, we booked all ages/licensed shows, cuz the underagers gotta have some fun too!
we're also finally gonna break our MuchOnDemand virginity! well, they interviewed care last tour, but this time round, we're playing some toons! its gonna be on December 9th in the afternoon, before we play milton that nite...exact time and details will be posted closer to the date...and rush-hour commuters beware! we'll be shutting down queen street that day!....just kidding....
so its time for our second single/video, which, as i mentioned last time, is gonna be 'dead honey'...it'll be getting play on the good radio station in yer area any time soon..we filmed the video for it this week, which is gonna look great...i can't say too much though, so not to give away the premise...well, ok...so there's a happy family of worker bees (me, care, daz and stacy) working on making honey, when suddenly, a pack of killer bees (some shitty emo band) with H1N1 attack! they lay waste to us and our honey factory with the pig-flu, whining lyrics and annoying angular haircuts! ok, thats a lie....you'll have to just wait and see the video, but till then, here's a couple pix taken by our friend mikey sin...the shoot was a longass day/nite as usual, but with the help of a great NYC director, Moh Azima, and an amazing crew, it's gonna be a fine piece of work, so thanks to all who worked on it...
lastly, its worth mentioning, we've officially released 'Unicorn Steak' in Japan! there's already been a bunch of interviews and radio promo for the release and we'll do our first tour over there in the new year...so domo arigato, mr roboto! chances are we'll go there with a band that already do well there, Fake Shark-Real Zombie, from vancouver, who are also the newest kids born to the Shull Management family! welcome, doods...check out their myspace, they're amazing....
well, guess thats it for now...looking forward to seeing/hanging with y'all out on the road...and just a reminder, with the release of 'dead honey' to radio/muchmusic, make it your duty to harass the hell out of them with requests till your fingers bleed! keep spreading the disease that is die mannequin....
thanks, and take care..
