Woken in Half

April 18, 2009

the steam comes in to rip apart the quiet of a lonely midnight sleep and a dream I thought I held onto flew past me like a secret I can’t keep and somewhere out there somebody’s got somebody else to fall asleep next to and somewhere out there somebody else is waking up alone again […]

Hexagon, April 2 2009

April 4, 2009

So we played the Hexagon.  It was really fun and everyone was super cool from the bar staff down to the crowd.  I was really looking forward to sharing a bill with Bouncer Fighter in particular, and to seeing Telepathos play their usual set (they had two members missing for the Beat show.)  Everybody was […]

Nothing to Protect

March 16, 2009

warn yourself don’t take away your hell I’ll stay far away until the polish fades and you back up outta my face don’t you think there’s something that you missed? I’ll accept the challenge, but no funny stuff once we hit the ground you’ll have to watch your back won’t you? I’m quite comfortable between […]

The Beat, Mar. 14 2009

March 15, 2009

With Telepathos and Ghostband.  We were all psyched for this gig, and then once we started setting up, we were informed by the sound guy that we had until 10 pm to play.  It was already 9:30.  Oh well.  We skipped the soundcheck and went right into the first four songs on our setlist.  It’s […]

Postbook: A mail art zine project

March 2, 2009

I’ve been wanting to do another zine lately, but I have far too many avenues for the control freak in me as it is.  So I’m starting a project called “Postbook” which will use the postal system to gather contributions for a collaborative art zine, using an add-and-pass traveling hard copy. Each person contributes their […]

Fort Awesome, Feb. 28 2009

March 1, 2009

What better way to test out a new band then to put together a basement show?  We’re now a trio, with me, Sarah, and our new drummer Chris Pappas.  We played at Fort Awesome, which is Chris’s house.  The tap on the keg stopped working, and of course it was cold out.  We followed the […]

Just Friends

February 28, 2009

One of those songs where I pretty much get all of the music down before I finish the lyrics. But that’s what I love about recording to a computer. You can work backwards if you want. You had nothing to do, I had nothing to say I had nothing on you when you took it […]
