I've suggested many times that you go to the All Tomorrow's Parties festival, and I've mentioned that there are tickets available for next weekend's version. Well, good fucking shit, go! The first weekend was perfect, and I have no doubt the second weekend will be as good or better. Tickets are available; if you can rustle up $1,000, maybe less, maybe like $750, and now I know that's alot of money, I know it is! But if you can rustle up some money, and rustle Friday and Monday off of work, you would not regret going, and of course you would not regret at all not going, as you will have gone. As it is, you can only regret.

I know that you and I share similar values. Therefore, I know that those funny little thing that appear at the bottom of your screen when you roll your little pointer over a link are #1 in your heart. Well, nut-fuckers! Now you can make 'em yourself! Check out the message board! It's totally new fangled.
We'd better see you in England next week. We're practicing, lots. Which means we will be very, very good. There are other good bands on the bill, too. They are practicing, too! We are all expecting to see you there. There are still tickets for the second weekend available, and there are still steamers 'cross the ocean to be hopped. Tell me you haven't lost your sense of adventure! Come back, baby! Rock n' Roll never fergits! Look at fucking Mission of Burma! They're older than you are! Hell, they're older than me, and I'm fucking old! GO TO THE FUCKING FESTIVAL!!!

I know I have more to talk about... but for now, know that you can scroll down to the bottom of this page and see links that will let you look at EVERYTHING I HAVE EVER WRITTEN IN MY LIFE. This is the MOST IMPORTANT THING EVER.
I should also tell you: we're playing some shows, coming up pretty quick. I think some of you know about this. We're playing at All Tomorrow's Parties at Camber Sands Holiday Center (it's like Switzerland there) in East Sussex, UK. We're playing there twice: on Stage 1, Sunday April 21st at 8:30 PM; and on Stage 2, Saturday April 27th at 4:45 PM.
And not only that: we're also playing on Thursday, April 25th, at the Garage in London with Mission of Burma and Versus.
I don't think there's anything else to report... but... maybe... no. Nothing else. Chicago is proving to be not so bad as I'd expected. I thought I was going to be bobbing in the lake by now, but it's going alright.
Much more later. I'll try to keep up while we're at the festival, but God knows I am going to be a mess the whole week, so don't hold me to it.

Yet another reminder, and then I shut up until something interesting happens:
Fri 22 Mar / Chicago, IL / Schuba's w/Mates of State and The Swords Project
Sat 23 Mar / Indianapolis, IN / Radio Radio w/The Swords Project
Sun 24 Mar / Wayne, MI / Michigan Fest w/a thousand other bands
Did I say the new record is coming out in June? I think it's happening around the 3rd of June.
I will try to have some actual news next time. I hope you like the new pictures, I'll keep 'em coming.

I thought it wouldn't work, but I think The Musical Correctness Calulator is actually working now - and I just fixed the comment problem so you can make all the comments you want. I know I'm making much too big a deal out of this, but we all need or pacifiers. It's like my own little quilting bee.
Don't forget the shows, this weekend and next:
Sat 16 Mar / Dubuque, IA / 4H Fairgrounds (early show--about 3pm) w/Slakjawd, Taskmaster, Unhinged, and, I believe, lots of skater kids! Righteous! This is what I moved to the fucking midwest for! You'd damn well better show up!
Fri 22 Mar / Chicago, IL / Schuba's w/Mates of State and The Swords Project
Sat 23 Mar / Indianapolis, IN / Radio Radio w/The Swords Project
Sun 24 Mar / Wayne, MI / Michigan Fest w/a thousand other bands
