yo everyone! we just returned home from our five day mini-tour. five days, four shows, two car accidents, one barrel of cat poop, and one tire blow-out later: we're back in new jersey.big ups to cenk and ben at the charleston, dire wolf, geoff/isolation/defiant hearts, max and koopa troopa beach, lisa from allston massachusetts, cobra lung, v-boys, dennis and the terrordome, tyler/ghosting, josh and amelia from burlington vermont, rob/brain shivers, juice and the providence rhode island kids, and everyone else i am forgetting. we had a radically hellacious time because of you. thank you so much.
our good friend and 'manager' GG wrote a country song on the road entitled "when the bucks go stompin' in the meadow." more information on this will be available soon.
the Stressed Out/Rip it Up split 7" made a Top 10 list in the January 2010 issue #320 of MAXIMUMROCKNROLL. cool! make george googa proud and check it here: http://maximumrocknroll.com/top-tens/our next show right now is saturday, january 23, 2010 in new jersey. it is with our friends TORCHBEARER, CHAMBERS, and BANQUETS. this show is a benefit for three members of the hchc community who recently went to court and received over $1300 in fines for noise violation tickets that they received over the summer. bring $5 to support kids who are doing shows so that these shows can keep happening.
