Demos are done, launched and uploaded.

What a weekend it has been already and it's only Saturday morning!

Thursday at The Tote was a good warmup for last nights show at Gertrudes Brown Couch. And what a show it was, we packed a ton of people into that little band room and it seems everyone had a ripper time. We got rid of a bunch of our demos and allegedly had a radio personality singing along to our cover of No Secrets by The Angels. I (Sean) even managed to worm my way into Anchors to play guitar for a song.

In other news, our demo is now available for download from Mediafire. Click here to get it RIGHT NOW!

Now get outside, it's beautiful out there!

Busy week

The calendar this week looks great, jamming Monday, Tuesday, working a show Wednesday and playing shows Thursday and Friday. That's 4 nights of Union Pacific this week and that makes me a super happy dude. Being a new band is all about stage legs, they say a gig is worth 4 practices so by using my skills of basic arithmetic, we're jamming 10 times this week.

Get down to the Tote on Thursday and Gertrudes Brown Couch on Friday, our first ever headlining show! We'll have demos and possibly stickers at both shows. Holy shit, things are rollin'.

Keep it unreal.

I'm so alt.....

I'm so alt I ride my fixie one handed through North Fitzroy with a vinyl record in a brown paper bag under my arm.

I'm so alt I sit in the park across the road from my house loading live Bon Iver videos on YouTube and drinking cider.

I'm so alt I walk to shows drinking longnecks of Coopers Green while postering for my bands' upcoming show.

I'm so alt I sit at work at my mixing console and post blogs in between bands.

I did all these things.

We're not slack I promise! We have evidence!

The demo production line + the posters for the 26th, coming soon to a lamp post near you.

So looking at that last post is a bummer, a month between posts? How lazy is that?!

Sunday day jam planned for today went awry when Jim woke up thoroughly partied out. Just a 2 piece band but we still got a bit done, new songs getting lyrics and another new one started, super good times tune. I'd love to have it on an EP in time for summer, the mood is just perfect!

4 shows coming up in the next little bit.
- The Tote on the 25th with Foxtrot, Kill The Matador and everyones new favourite band (by name only) Keggin!
- Gertrudes on the 26th is our first ever headlining show(!) with Ben Searle and the Quiet Contenders, Mikey Mitchard and the Party Vibez and Josh Whoman and the Foxtrots (for the second day running), check out the poster above.
- Public Bar on the 9th of September is shaping up to be an absolute ripper of a show with Thomy and the Tanks and all round top blokes Freedumb Nation. It's home ground show for those dudes and we're all pretty confident they can put together a kickass party.
Stay posted for a details on a Public Bar show on the 30th of September too.
Time to get some more songs finished because a headlining band can't make do with 4 originals and 2 covers....

Demo covers were delivered today by Nicko and they're looking good. Sitting here folding them I'm super glad we got them printed properly and didn't try and DIY it, what a nightmare that would have been. Tomorrow's mission, order a rubber stamp and 200 plain white blank CD's.

Going to watch Sling Blade now.
Peace,
