I've always been a sucker for a brown eyed punk rock girl.

So an awesome weekend has come and passed. Although, I realized that I don't have to many weekends that aren't really awesome in someway or another. So Friday was a blast because we (the roomies + other crazies) went to a sketch comedy show. This is the flicker page of the girl in the middle she was one of the actors in the group. Look at Dave and I being touchy feely ;).
If you keep scrollin through there are more pictures that Dave and I snuck in, as well as, ones with Jen and some other people we went with. It was a lot of fun basically it was a bunch of sketches with drinking games in between.

Then on Saturday we took it kind of easy, except for going to Chuck E. Cheese and ripping the place off. It turns out that Lago still has the keys to the coins so we just stole a ton of tokens and then won 2000 tickets. Which we traded in for 2000 tickets worth of air heads...best fucking deal in the world.

Then Sunday was our show at PRP, which I think went really well. We made like forty bucks and brought the most people to the show and I think we are starting to get fans. There was this girl that was at the Clearwater Show and then she came to this show and she told us she'd keep coming because we were awesome. See Myspace comments.

Then we have a show this Friday in Morris Illinois, which is roughly an hour and a half from Chicago. We are taking car loads of people from the 'burbs, as well as, from the city, so if you want a ride let us know. We are playing with a pretty big band called Coventry; its going to be awesome.

Anyway, overall pretty fun weekend. But today I had to say goodbye to Jim and Anthony because they are going to SXSW the rest of this week...which I of course will NOT be going to. I don't want to talk about it. Stupid AP made me really sad because they sent me my laminate for their private party. Stupid AP....

We also got our CDs back which means that we now have CDs for sale. So Dave and I are really excited for, what I've discovered the "industry" calls, "servicing" the record. Basically, mailing it to labels and radio stations and promoters. Its going to be a lot of fun because I've learned a lot about it from Minty Fresh, so that experience will help us push this CD to the right people.

Then finally, a shameless plug.

We really want to play the Ernie Ball Stage at Warped Tour. So, if whoever reads this, could go to warpedtour.battleofthebands.com and register and the go HERE and vote that would be awesome.

I can't say that I honestly think we'll make it and be able to play Warped Tour, but it doesn't hurt to try and the worst thing that happens is we don't make it and we just did a TON of promotion for our band...

Anywho. I think thats it for now. I'm finally going to sit down and write some samples.

Later Boners
