Yo, Josh is sick, Mike just recovered, Mitch played an electric standup and Ryan is making curry. Meanwhile, Willie and Ayana prove they’re the most attractive couple known to man.
So… There’s that.
We had a rambunctious weekend with shows Thursday – Saturday and the Super Bowl. While Team: “Why Not Us?” Beat Team: “Yo, this quarterback is really good.”, we we’re finalizing our live performance videos to quietly launch a campaign of recordings from this past summer’s SpringBoard South festival in Houston, and our own event, Purple and Gold Bash II, from November. Anywhere from six to ten total videos will bet released over the course of the next few months. A constant point of criticism we’ve received has pointed out our incredible lack of Live footage of performances, and how our current music video, as awesome as it is – and it IS, doesn’t properly demonstrate how many faces we rock during a show. In an effort to fully prepare a potential attendee, and truly warn them of so much potential face rocking, we have humbly obliged. So, be on the lookout for that.
This past Thursday we played Smoky Row in Houma, Luna in Lake Charles Friday, and the Foundation Room at The House of Blues New Orleans on Saturday night. An interesting travel situation left us needing gear on Friday, and Luna came through. Also, we we’re interviewed by Louisiana Indie Radio upon arrival. Notice the cool setup photos and interview photos in the gallery.
Saturday’s experience was incredible. The Foundation room has years of history and prestige. To play the room for the night of the 20th Anniversary for The House of Blues was brilliant.
Okay, here’s our weekend ahead:
Thursday, Austin
The Blackheart – our friends in the Austin based band Roxy Roca hooked us up with this gig. These guys absolutely rock, I’ve seen them out here at Gasa Gasa down the street and BBG, so click on that and check them out. So much soul. This will be their regular gig but we’ve been asked to fill in for em this week, we’re really looking forward to playing this show.
Friday, Downtown Bryan
FIRST FRIDAY! In downtown Bryan, the first Friday of every month is a big festival-esque day. Live music, art, food… It’s got everything and it’s always great to play with our good friends in Larynx music. This will be the third time we’ve played with our boys in Larynx and twice at The Stafford. The Stafford kicks ass, the bands kick ass…. There’s some ass kicking to be had on Friday night.
Saturday, College Station
The Republic 1836. Where it all started.
Sunday, Downtown Bryan
The Village – Ryan, Josh, Alan, and I played this gig two Sundays ago and it was fantastic. Cool vibes, amazing people and food, it’s a pleasant acoustic experience.
Again, keep your eyes out for the video. Next weekend we’re playing more shows, eh, just stay in touch.
