Hi everyone! So it certainly can be argued at this point that we are the worst band in the world when it comes to updating our blogs and websites. We can't really make any excuses for this, except to say that when there is no real exciting news to report it seems silly to update. But now we're thinking to hell with it, there's got to be something worth writing. After reading through this you may or may not agree. So first of all the real band-orientated news. As we have been saying forever, we are still working on our new album. It gets old saying that, and it probably gets old hearing it, but one thing we can say is that we really have made some tremendous headway with the recordings, and things are sounding great! While we still can't tell you when it will be released, we can say with some confidence that it is the best stuff we have ever done. So please remain patient, I say that to myself as much as anyone else. We are still playing shows as often as we can, please continue to come see us live and tell us what you think of the new material. A big thanks to everyone who came recently to see us play with Veruca Salt, and so see us play last weekend at Outlaws. So what else? Well, why not blab on about other things that we're interested in? You wanna have some good times, go see Jackass 2, The Departed, or, if nothing else, Borat. Borat is probably that funniest movie that has ever been made. Many of you already know this. What else are we into? Stephan is now obsessed with boxing to an almost creepy degree. If you want to talk about boxing, Stephan will be more than happy to talk about it. Forever. I'm not gonna say that his betting record is particularly impressive so far, but he does have a passion for it. Last night we all went to the Westside Comedy Club to see Craig Gass do standup. The man is an absolute riot and a northwest native, you've got to check him out when he comes through town again. He is probably best known for doing impressions on the Howard Stern show, he does (among others) Sam Kinison, Christopher Walken, Al Pacino, Paul Stanley, Gene Simmons, Adam Sandler, Yoda, all spot-on amazing impressions. It was a great time. OK, that's probably enough blabbing for now, we'll write some more random shit soon. Feel free to respond to any of this with your own opinions. -Ben, Cory, Stephan, Eric
