It's been a minute...

We know...



We're thinking...

We truely are slackers...

Just last week we did shows at Swing State & at the Racine County Fairgrounds. We spent the night in WI staying up way to late and getting up way too early the next day.

The shows went well and had some positive feedback from the select few that saw us.

Tomorrow, Friday August 28th we'll be playing at Kinetic Playground with a whole bunch of amazing artists! This one you won't want to miss. Sure, lots of bands say that, "you don't want to miss this one," but I don't think we use it too often and when we do, we mean it!

The Infrasonics are headlining the night and DJ crew The FoR. will be keeping the floor moving 'til 4am!

Fabian Guerra & Gary Rogers

With out going in to too much detail. I just wanted to give my thanks and praise to Fabian & Gary. If you haven't heard yet, Chicago lost both of these men this past week, in separate occasions.

When I was in my first band, I was lucky enough to meet both of them. If it weren't for Fabian I would have never gotten my foot in the door at Beat Kitchen or Subterranean.

Gary did sound at many local venues around Chicago. He did sound for us the numerous times we played at Gunther Murphy's.

Both will be missed.

Please have them and their families in your thoughts.

Beat Kitchen

Thank you to everyone who made it out to Beat Kitchen to see us this past Sunday! It was our first time playing the venue and we had a blast! The staff was amazing!

We were lucky enough to play with Loom, from UT, and Exotic Animal Petting Zoo, from the greater Chicago-land area.

Beat Kitchen thought we did a great job and said they would keep us posted on future shows.

We are hoping to go back in to Blam Studios some time in June.

Sightings, the scene, and other randomness...

Yesterday I [Hex], went to Beat Kitchen with Shlee from Chicago Music Project. Our main goal was to check out The Poison Arrows. Shlee had heard about them from a friend and Radio One just had them at Blam! Studios, you can catch their performance this Wednesday at WLUW.

We also ran in to a few of our friends from Enchufate! Sandra and Luis host E>N>E, which we [CANYON] were lucky enough to be a part of. We also ran in to Rebecca from REGO and her friend Wendy. They are always a pleasure to run in to. Rego will be playing at LaSalle Power Co on Thursday night and at Schuba's next week.

Speaking of Beat Kitchen, we will be playing there this Sunday!! May 17th at 8pm, we'll be doing a +17 show with Loom who hails from Salt Lake City, UT. It should be an exciting show!

In Ursula news, she is somewhere in Canada... apparently it's cold there, so she has told us.
