Bad news first:
We have canceled the East Coast tour with [syndika:zero] set for October. This cancellation includes Gothtoberfest in Chicago. Our ability to participate in the festival hinged upon a tour being booked around it. When it became impossible for us to go on the tour it then became impossible for us to do the festival. I do not know if [syndika:zero] will still be playing the festival or not, last I heard, they were going to try and still make it. Please check their sites for updates on what they will now be doing in lieu of the "Still Alive" tour.
Good news next:
C/A/T is now accepting bookings for one off events between now and the end of 2009. If you or anyone in your area has leads to promoters who'd be interested in bringing us in for a show or adding us to an existing event, please get in contact with us via: cat@crunchpod.com
C/A/T is, as of today, self-represented, meaning all booking request go directly to ME and promoters and event planners will be dealing with me directly which should hopefully make things a bit easier than they have been.
Due to my car accident last week, I am housebound until further notice. This means that I'm basically stuck where my studio is 24/7 right now. So, unless I get completely lazy and play XBox until I pass out each day... the release schedule for C/A/T and Captive Six may bump up a few months as I have nothing but time to write at the moment.
Thanks to everyone who has already put us in contact with promoters for one offs. My goal is get a least 3 or 4 more gigs before the end of 2009 and then start planning for next year's tour in the next month or two.
Be well,
-Ben
