We've been out of the loop for a while, sorry kids. We played the Asheville show after our last post. The venue was way to classy but the people got into it well enough. A zoology grad student bought the last thirty of our old buttons with the slide of the tapeworm on it. Thanks Maureen! Then we talked about beer and food - there are bunches of breweries in Asheville and the guys that put us up are avid gardeners.
Woke up. Golfed. Realized the camera was missing/stolen. :(
Sauntered on towards Knoxville via the scenic route. Also known as the ten mile an hour roller coaster. Fucking rock slides. But we got hella good super cheap food at a deli in Newport. The Knoxville punk house was a veritable mansion. Used to be a store, got converted into residential. Very nicely decorated and the show room was almost sound proof - no cops in two and a half years! Hell yeah! We played with Clan of the Cave Bear, Dude Fucking Whatever, and Odd Order. Everyone was awesome, be sure to check Clan of the Cave Bear in Carbondale on Friday the 11th. Some dude crashed into our shit during our set and then passed out and slept through the last band, waking only long enough to vomit. Even though our camera was stolen, a friend of Clan of the Cave Bear took bunches of pictures and gave them to us. I'll post them later - my laptop doesn't wanna read them.
We woke up in predawn light and loaded out to cut to Zeke's studio. We spent Monday laying instruments and Tuesday we redid some shit and did overdubs and extra stuff and vocals and got really exhausted and tired and Boogie chewed up my contact case and Alex got really drunk and Joseph played ringmaster for the three ring circus flying around this tiny cabin. We worked about twelve hours a day and smelled really bad while we were at it. P - U! But we got a lot recorded. Phew! We might have some rufff mixes of a Gnarly XXXMas and Roller Derby Girl to give away when you buy our bombass shirt or drinks for us on Thursday. Preferably the shirt. Or the drinks.
Tonight we're playing with Daikaju in Huntsville. Looks like it'll be insane. Gotta hit the road!
