Grindhouse

Yesterday we had a day off from recording so John and me went and saw Grindhouse and now I urge you to go see it.
Today we tracked some vocals and tomorrow we will start tracking guitars. I'm excited I finally get to record for real.

Tour & Recording

Thanx to everybody who came out and made our last tour a blast. Especially Milwaukee and Brooklyn were beyond ridiculous.
Today we started day 3 of recording at the magpie cage and things are going way fast. We're laying down drums and bass the next couple days before moving on to guitars next week. To bad we're hold up in the studio pretty much 12 hours a day so we haven't really gotten the chance to check out Baltimore. Tomorrow Girl Talk is playing The Ottobar and it looks like I don't get to go which is kind of a bum out. Oh well.

When we're done recording we will head out on a tour with Boston's Death Before Dishonour and Iowa's Brooks Straus. This is def the most interesting package we done in a while.
