we are playing in brooklyn on Aug 2nd, Arlington on Aug 3rd.

on August 23 we are playing an all ages show at the Rock and Roll hotel in NE


My girlfriend and I ran into a number of friends on 18th street the other day. It was a good day. I picked her up from the airport and showed her some demos. She objects to a particular line because it's (she wouldn't put it this way) too bourg-ie. it probably won't make it in because it's distant from what i felt at the time, and of course i've got some better ones up my sleeves anyways.

Mike's been a little stressed lately so we've been drinking more at practice which is fine by me. i actually picked up a bottle of patron and we had a great productive practice today. really. they can go together

we are going into the studio for a third session in a sprawling rock and roll thing we're getting together for whatever reason. it really sounds like us and the tones are raw and mr. tones is super raw, himself. his cardigan caught on fire last night.

so keep an eye out for the shows and hopefully the new tunes when we do start leaking them to people in order of rank and privilege. they're really important, live and a very straight forward and confident version of what we've been trying to do all along and only realized now.

peace,
