April 2011 Update

by dave • Uncategorized

Spring is here, celebrated with a new shower curtain with yellow flowers. Indulgent I know but that’s the way these things roll sometimes. While we’ve been waiting for this great revelation of spring to occur, we’ve been camped out in a dark moldy practice room writing some new songs and booking some upcoming shows:

May 7, Saturday – Hamburg, Germany – FSK Benefit @ Westwerk w/ Ludger
May 28, Saturday – Leipzig, Germany @ Liwi w/ Oiro
July 2, Satuday – Bremen, Germany @ Schlachthof – Endless Grind Skateboard Festival w/ Oiro
August 26, Friday – Hamburg, Germany @ Størte w/ Oiro

There should be a few more dates announced soon…

In other kind-of-band-related news, Tim’s other band, Sweet Cobra, recently released a new record that is mind-shatteringly good. Take a listen here: myspace.com/sweetcobra. // Also, Manuel’s other band, Honigbomber, is gearing up for a release of their long overdue first record. They have a release show at Rote Flora on April 29th but whether they will have their records in time is up in the air. Take a listen to a few of the songs here: myspace.com/honigbomber. // Also, Dave’s other band (am I allowed to write about myself in third-person? weird…), Bee Control, finally released it’s first s/t 7″ in a joint-label affair. You can take a listen to one of the songs here. I think another song is up there on Soundcloud too. 300 copies were made and are available in the USA from Past/Futures records, and in Europe from Bis Auf Messer (Berlin), Dingleberry Records (Gießen), and Revolution Summer (Czech). // Pete recently found out that the street he lives on will soon become a dynamite blast site for major road reconstruction. Warnings were sent out to him that the blasting will commence at 7am and finish at 7pm for several weeks, during which his house will periodically shake from the blasting. He’s afraid that his cats and dog will not be excited. // And finally, Flo’s bike is fixed and apparently “rides itself”. So full circle back to spring time. Get on your bike and enjoy the weather!

Over the last few months a few people have sent me a few links. The video of Tim playing solo with his banjo is especially worth taking a look at. I’ll leave you with these. Cheers!
