Current mood:  determined

Happy New Year to everyone.  I hope it was grand.  Just a quick update.  We've been working on a bunch of new songs and plan to record another ep sometime around April/May.  We also have tentative plans to schedule a west coast tour sometime early this summer from San Diego up to Canada.  This is pending some schedule openings and isn't set in stone, but it's what we are planning so if anyone knows of good venues let us know.  I will be updating as the days go by.  All the best.

-Big Japan

Thanks for the update. First of all happy new year to you and the guys! Can I just tell you how excited i am for the next ep...thats so awesome :)  and then to add to the excitement is the tentative west coast tour....how great would that be going up the coast like that!? haha I end school in May so I'm thinking a BJ road trip might be in store...haha now that would be a fun time for my friends and I :) We'll see!  Anyways I'm definitely looking forward to any and all future shows though and the new ep of course, so this is a great update.  i know of a lot of good venues (and i second the chain reaction as well haha its just 10 min from my house) so if in the future there are any cities you are looking at in particular for venues in let me know and i'll help ya out if i can. anyways take care guys and again happy new year

Come to Toronto - I don't care where as long as it isn't ages 19+ because then I can't go. I would suggest the KoolHaus or however it's spelled.

Happy New Year!

A pretty cool place is Hogue Barmichaels (all ages) www.hoguebarmichaels.com . It's in Newport Beach (haha i bet that sounds familiar) and it's a pretty cool place for bands to play at. I've seen a few shows there :)

Hey thanks for adding me back! Your band is awesome. If you DO come to Vancouver to play you should try the Commodore, Richards on Richards, Buffalo Club or the Media Club...all awesome venues...Commodore being the biggest one...If you're looking for all ages the Commodore sometimes does those and another place called the Croatian Cultural Centre.

Hope that helps!

Take care.

halieee.

 

if you're thinking of coming to Canada, you can't just stay in the west coast...
you've got to hit up Toronto for sure! hah :]

Kool Haus, The Docks, or even the Underground in Hamilton would be awesome places for a show.
you'd get a great turn out for sure.

hope to see you!

You definitely should come to Canada - more specifically Halifax, NS!! What better place to visit in Canada than the Maritimes  I recommend that if you do come this way, check out the Marquee Club in downtown Halifax. Lots of great bands have played there like The Trews, Trebble Charger, David Usher, Sum41, Matthew Good, etc etc. Check it out: http://www.themarqueeclub.ca/

ya i agree with everybody i want you to come to my hometown... vancouver. a pretty cool venue in van. is the plaza, i just saw album leaf there it was really good. also there is the mesa luna. it is my favourite, it is a little small, but it is dear to my heart. richard's on richard's is decent as well. let me know if there is anything else you would like to know, i am more than happy to help.

also there is the croatian cultural centre, a lot of bands play there. if you take my advice, don't play there it's not the best venue. you guys need a venue that is somewhat representative to your music. and the ccc is stale and boring.
