Scribble Jam

August 07, 2005

Scribble Jam is upon us. That’s where we’ll be all weekend. We play on Friday, but other than that we’ll just be bumming around. If you are planning on being in Cincinnati, stop by our booth and we’ll make you a hat out of a newspaper.

Cancelation

July 27, 2005

Our apologies to anyone that came out to Loring Park last night. The show was cancelled due to rain. That was one crazy storm though, and if you actually went to the park during that shit you are one crazy dude/lady. Props.

As for the rest of the week, it seems our only show will be Mictlan at the Dinkytowner on Sunday the 31st. Also down for dinkytown: Ernie Rhodes of DEC, Big Quarters, and Jimmy2Times. It’s been dubbed “The Jam …

Robot Love One Year Anniversary

July 20, 2005

Steamy steel-on-steel action! Tomorrow (Thursday) evening we will join our friends at Robot Love in celebrating their one year anniversary. It seems like only yesterday that they opened their doors to offer a huge selection of totally awesome, utterly useless collectibles. Joining us in our swaying, drunken toast of “for he’s a jolly-good fellow” will be Mel Gibson and the Pants and Vox Vermillion. Gimme a Robot! Gimme a Love! Now that I’ve finally got the two things that Santa …

Duluth & Madison

July 14, 2005

This past weekend in Duluth was something pretty special. Mictlan started celebrating his birthday there on Friday, and is still going strong. Today is day seven, so come out this evening to wish him the best before the whole thing starts getting silly. Where will you be going? The Annex, friend, the Annex. Dessa and Sims are doing a show there with Heiruspecs, Carnage, and Jimmy2times. It’s at 9:00, and it’ll run you 8 bucks. No reason not to.

Eyes and Hands Festival

July 04, 2005

It would probably be worth your while to join us in Duluth this weekend for the Eyes and Hands Festival. Friday and Saturday will boast some sick twin cities and local acts at the NorShor Theater, including Digitata, Building Better Bombs, the Swiss Army, the Cardinal Sin, and a buncha others. We’ll be headlining on Saturday night, and have some top secret special-type shit up our sleeves. Yes, that’s right: shit up our sleeves. Nasty.

Thanks

June 28, 2005

Massive thanks to everyone that came out on Saturday. We had an amazing evening, and it’s all because of you. Thanks also to the Triple Rock staff, who continue to put up with our shit for no good reason.

If you couldn’t make it or didn’t pick up a copy of the record, Lights Out Paris is now available at the Fifth Element, Cheapo, Electric Fetus, and other fine mom and pop shops.

The future’s so bright I gotta wear shades.
