all good things to those who wait.  ladies and gents, sometimes things take a long time..  like really long.  but let's not dwell on the past, this is a positive entry.  The Films sophomore effort "Oh, Scorpio" has a release date!  well, a digital one at least.  JUNE 23rd the record will be released on itunes.  yes, we have plans to print hard copies (and vinyl!) in the not too distant future as well, but digital will have to do for now.  besides let's face it, most of you just put that cd in your computer one time and then lose it, or it becomes good looking garbage cluttering up your desk.

april something.. home from the road. the Butch Walker tour was sweet till the last drop. thanks Butch, the MMM's, the crew, and the fans for making us feel welcome.

i have 3 things to tell you about (i work best in 3's)....

album title: our new album has a title. it's called "OH, SCORPIO"

OH, SCORPIO is out in japan!!
to the wonderful people of japan: (you'll have to excuse me, my japanese is a little rusty) 私達の新記録は日本の記憶装置に今ある! それはオハイオ州の蠍座生まれの人に問い合わせ、それを点検したら私達はそれを非常に好む。 ありがとう!!

and thirdly, we will be playing a show this saturday, april 11th at the Paradiso club in Amsterdam. come check it out!!




PS: i will break my rule of 3 to let you know that our dear friends from charleston "LESLIE" have a new EP out. give em a listen - myspace.com/leslierock

THIS has been an unrivaled tour so far.. dare i say the best yet?? the shows have been great. the crowds have been amazing. Butch Walker and his band of musical melody makers have been laying waste to the stage on a nightly basis. the graffiti is slowly coming off of our trailer (more on that later). all is well.

here's a little video of us in our hotel room.

Hope to see you there!

well folks, its about that time again. time to trade in our soft beds and daily routines for cramped vans, dirty hotels and fast food. yes, let's close our eyes for a moment and imagine this magical place that we so lovingly refer to as 'the road'. picture, if you will, a place where a tea tree flavored toothpick can be called "toothbrush".. a place where the sink at the motel 6 can be called "washing machine".. and where a 12 oz red and white can with a blue ribbon on it can be called "breakfast and lunch".. our soul mission being to play music for great people in a different city every single night! we have lived in this beautiful world for quite a while, and after taking some time off this passed year to make a new record, we could not be more thrilled to get back out there!

our new dear friend (who also happens to be an amazing artist/performer/producer) Butch Walker has invited lil ol' us to go on tour with him in march. thanks Butch! check out the tourdates link to see where the tour is headed - FYI - if you don't see your city on there, try to refrain from getting angry and sending us a 'what about f***ing (your city here)????' email, and KNOW that with the release of the new record there will be a hell of a lot more touring for us in the coming months. we WANT to play your town!
