Not that we had any doubt...

But, here is farther proof that Ben Noethe is important.

Yeah, he drew that on his pants.

It's official...

We have the album title.

We've been working on our moves (updated)



John's hair finally grew back out.


And Chris has been working on this move for jumping off of the stage.



Don't act like you aren't impressed...



Here's Chance with a wicked drum solo.





And I've been working on learning guitar to fill in here and there. I like to be versatile.






And here we have Hananel warming up at the piano for one of the slower songs in our set.

Is it April?

So...updates...

Show on May 4th at The Submarine...us and Heath Mcnease. It'll pretty much change your life.

We're trying to book more shows for May/June/July...we'd like to play some more out of town shows...nothing too far...Probably from Gainesville to Macon, Dothan to Waycross...that's our area of interest right now. If anyone has venue info for any cities in that radius, let us know.

We'll be returning to Ohio in May to finish tracking for the album. We're hoping to have the album out in early to mid June...much has to happen...artwork, song sequence, title, etc...so let's make lists (herndon). How about some suggestions? Even if we don't use any of them, should be funny to kick around some album titles.

Seth and I were just kicking around the idea of doing a weekly band Podcast. I don't really know what that is, and I don't think any of us own Ipods or Macs, but we're gonna do it anyway. I'm not sure what it'll contain...a bit of rock, some stories, other music we like, new songs we're working on, theories, ramblings, Aqua Teen quotes, and most likely some John Herndon sentences. Look for it soon.

In other news, we need to hire a hype coordinator. Anyone wanna apply?

The Ums and Kid Hart are playing Big Daddy's Saturday nite. Since we didn't get to see them last weekend, I'm pretty sure we'll be in attendance for that...as you should be also.

Speaking of those bands...we're gonna try and have them up at The Sub real soon. I'll keep you posted.

I would also like to take this opportunity to thank the Tallahassee Police department for stopping the rock Friday nite. We were one song away from melting the faces off of everyone in attendance...and that could have gotten messy.

All for now.

Authoritah.

I wonder if The Police ever got shut down by the police. I wonder, in such a case, if that would be considered Police on police violence. I wonder if the rap song "#*%@ the Police" was talking about cops or the band, The Police. In the case of the latter, that would disgrace the name of The Police, which is "The Police"...
We should change our name to The Cops. That would be cool, because then when uptight baby-boomers call The Cops, we would could show up at their house and read them their rights with our amps turned up to 11. And they couldn't complain, because, "hey music-scrooges, you're the ones who called The Cops. I'm sorry we interrupted your American Idle, but we just wanted to let you know that you have the right to remain silent--use it, or we'll use it for ya..."

The Police

We seem to have a problem with authority...
So far, here's the score.
John Moss vs. Carvin Guitar Strap
John: 0
Carvin Guitar Strap: 1.

Seth Golden with straw vs. Strawberry within a Strawberry Milkshake
Seth: 0
Strawberry: 1










Hananel Mavity with two straws vs. Strawberry in Strawberry Milkshake
Hananel: 1
Strawberry: 0










Chance Holt vs. any pair of drumsticks for more than 30 minutes at a time
Chance: 1
Drumsticks: 0










Chris Hall vs. Steak & Shake (or, really, any restaurant)
Chris: 0
Steak & Shake: 1












And finally...
Icarus Aquanaut vs. Tallahassee's finest
IA: 0
Police: 1



















But from what I hear, you aren't really a rockstar until you've gotten shut down by the police.
To be fair for our band, we did play for about 3 songs longer than the police wanted us to. We ended on a cover of Radiohead's "Fake Plastic Trees." I think that was worth it.

Stay tuned. May 4th will be awesome.

Ana took photos on Sunday, and those photos are good.
Chris continues to fight with the city of cincinnati, which, in turn, continues to prove that it is the most ridiculous city ever.
come to our show in Tallahassee next weekend.
that's all for now.
