HEY GUYS AND GALS! The Outfit is back in the game. We are armed with a new drummer, old friend Eric Hurd drummer of band Ru'ach. Check them out too!. We have a couple new songs being prepared, that will be played on our first show back with Mason Proper, The Architects, The Ultrasounds, and Plan B. I have posted a few songs from the cd up again since Myspace has changed their policy. There's also a basement show with The Architects, and The Runners Up at my place tommorow night, Weds, April 11 at 9 o'clock. If you want to come contact us via Myspace and i will send u the info.

Thanks to all for the support and keep on the look out for shows and new material. :) -Zach

A recent change to the myspace term of service agreement has led me to pull our songs.

The revised agreement, which gives Myspace the right to "non exclusive, fully paid, and royalty-free worldwide license... to use, copy, modify, adapt, translate, publicly display, store, reproduce, transmit, and distribute" just kind of rubs me the wrong way.

In short, Myspace could take any form of media that has been uploaded to a Myspace page, and then use it, without giving the creator any royalties. They don't even have to ask permission to do it.

This means that not only is our music, and everyone else's music/art/whathaveyou up for grabs for anyone with Rupert Murdoch's News Corp., but artists may not even know about it until a friend tells them that it was plastered all over their tv.

Myspace has provided many opportunities for unsigned bands to get the word out there. It has helped us in many ways that we could never have imagined prior to its conception. However, there has to be a line drawn as to what the price can be for this type of help, and exposure.

This means that if myspace was bought by Coca-cola, they could use a Bauhaus song in a Fanta commercial. Those poor gothic fucks wouldn't even know it until they were watching the Worlds Most Haunted Places on the travel channel, and the show cut to commercial.

Yeah.

So, adios myspace.

Our music is still available online at purevolume.com/theoutfitmi

Thank you for your support,

Dear All,

We have gone away on myspace a little. This is true.

But let this be known that we are not dead.

We have a bunch of shows coming up soon.

I'm thinking that it wouldn't be rediculous to expect a little sampler from our cd on here in somewhere between one week and two weeks. Or on March 12th.

The CD is going well.

We're throwing down. We've got some pretty sweet guest appearances.

In case you didn't know, the cd is around 40 minutes long. It plays like it's one track... but it isn't, its more like 12.

It's like Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon... but with more distortion. And DSOTM didn't have a ------- on it.

Sorry, gotta save that surprise for the first listen.

We we're on 88.3's blackbox radio last saturday. It was pretty sweet. Elly said "shit" on the radio.

Thank you to everyone who came out to support us at the battle of the bands at lincoln high school. The event was a big success for WATT, and everyone should definately check them out and get involved. All of the other bands that played were pretty sweet. I was impressed. Let it be known that we were not there to compete, so, those who were bitter with our win... sorry. We just wanted to play a free show to cool people... and some people weren't down with the groove that the O-fit was layin down. Again... sorry... didn't mean to ruin your night. A big thanks to our fans and other fans who had the courtesy to be kind to others. Ru'ach definately should have placed. They ruled.

Thank you for checking this.

Leave us some comments.

March 12th.
