a lot has been going on int he past two weeks, and we just wanted to check in and drop the 411. first off, last saturday (the 23rd) we played a sold out show at st. john's hamilton with some of our buds in the hint (get their new ep NOW), arden, the bigger lights and it was honestly one of our favorite shows of ALL TIME. over 400 people came out to help us celebrate our brosephs in THE APATHY EULOGY's new ep release - be sure to grab that soon if you haven't already, it's baby-makin' music deluxe! from the beginning of the night to the very end, we saw so many familiar faces, and met a ton of news ones, and it was just the thing we needed in this time of transition to reassure us that this is what we want to do. the vibe was nothing short of inspiring, and seeing everyone sing along to every word of our set sent us home with smiles three miles wide. what a night. this past weekend (29th/1st) we had us some fun shows at st. christopher's in MD and luna bean in NC. friday in MD was a blast hanging out with our man crushes in BRAVO ROMEO BRAVO. bunch of peeps came out and danced the night away. dan c from BRB had just about the worst night known to man, but he wore it well. love those guys! their new ep just hit itunes so be sure to go download it when you're done reading this. saturday night ... well, WOW! another sold out show, this time in wilson, NC. we love wilson and luna bean with all of our hearts. it's almost like a home away from home. having played there 4 times now, it gets better each time, and this topped it all. we were honored to be a part of our boys in MERCY MERCEDES' cd release party, and it was just that ... sharing the stage with those dudes was a blast, and they are without a doubt some of the coolest dudes we've met on the road, and you should all go say hey to them and tell 'em we sent you. their new ep is out now, and we all are obsessed with it. join the club and get a taste of these dudes before they're the next band that blows up! trust us ... we wouldn't lie. AHHHHHH! wilson .... luna bean ... max ..... william ..... dustin ..... everyone who bought a shirt, cd, underwear, sticker, blah blah blah ..... we love you all. can't wait to come back!!! the past two weeks have been a blast, and the response to our acoustic sets have been nothing short of amazing. we're happy everyone has been digging the acoustics while we get through this transition. brandon just bought a new acoustic ... it's pretty and black and sounds like the noise angels make after eating a reese cup. definitely stay tuned, we have been writing and can't wait to post some exciting news ... and maybe some new tunes ... very soon. come to show if we're coming near you any time soon. k? thanks. with love, thanks and all that shows we care ... -steve dropout year
