First of all, here are our upcoming dates:
April 18th at Hymie's Vintage Records Block Party. We play at 4:00 PM with a ton of other great bands. There's food, beer, and free records!
April 25th at Ed's No Name Bar in Winona. This is part of Midwest Music Festival. Again, there are too many amazing bands playing this Fest to list, but it's going to be incredible. We are closing the night at Midnight. We're planning to bring the pain, then party all night. After the party it's the hotel lobby.
May 16th at The Anchor Fish and Chips. This is part of the Northeast Minneapolis madness that is Art-a-Whirl! We loved this gig last year, in no small part because we each got a free food ticket and it was soooo good.
May 23rd at Memory Lanes Block Party. This festival gets better every year. This time, we get to share a bill with Rupert Angeleyes, Tickle Torture, Black Audience, Hardcore Crayons, Fort Wilson Riot and more. It's free, and Trevor will be in the dunk tank.
There will be more to follow in the summer. What a magical time for listening to great music outside.
In other news, Marvel and Trevor had their baby! In the end of November, little Julian came screaming into the world. He's a rad little redhead. Happily, his wonderful Grandma Liz lives two blocks from our practice space, and she loves to babysit.

Also, and this is exciting: Piñata Records, the record label we started to release our music, and then blossomed with other great bands like Black Diet, Mystery Date and Narco States, was named Best Local Label by Minneapolis' City Pages. This is a wonderful honor. So we're doing what any business would do; we're having a sale.
