I know I keep mentioning the weather in these parts, but have I mentioned that the weather is REALLY splendid here down south? In Athens we got the treat of a lifetime-- Kate and Fred from The B52s!!! were dancin’ their ever-lovin’ faces off at our Athens show, to which I can only say FUCK YEAH!! Athens was the last we saw of the Apollo Sunshine crew, godbless’em-- perhaps we’ll run into them on the avenue at SXSW. Speaking of said gathering, my band--along with the Texas sun-- is going to MELT BRAINS in Austin next week, and I’m deadly serious.
Last night in Gainseville, FLA was pretty sweet… The Common Grounds, where we played, had a sound system that liked us bands loud and proud, thankyaverymuch-- local band Averkiou laid out some pretty THIIIIK riffs-- made me think of a raunchy-weezer, dare I say a smidge heavier?… Then fellow travelers Dirty On Purpose ended the night with their luscious shoegazer pop… YUM YUM all around!
I think today might bring our second foray to the beach, cuz why not? We have the day off, so we’re thinking of catching DOP in St. Augustine with fellow Brooklyners The Big Sleep, since we haven’t had the pleasure of meeting those cats yet… I’ll let you know how it goes, dear blog…
Love

The Big Sleep are tight. Definitely go check them out.
Have fun melting faces and wrecking skulls in Austin. Wish I could be there.
