Unknown + Lies

Big thanks to everyone who made it out to EASTER's first show. Jon and I had lots of fun and I hope you all did as well. Thanks to everyone who took pictures, bought drinks, smiled, laughed, shouted, gave opinions and compliments (our favorite!). You made our transition from a period of not-performing to performing again very easy and comfortable and we had great fun. Here's pics!

I got so amped for this show that exen though I was completely exhausted afterwards, I couldn't get any sleep. And note on having a two-piece band: it's bad for my back. One less person to help lug my big cabinet around. I broke a sweat a lot yesterday and it occurs to me now that I'm going have to practice a lot of heavy lifting if I'm to continue my "Active Maturity" which it would say on my bag of cat food. If I were a cat.

If worst comes to worst, I'm going to need to wear one of those heavy lifting belts; You know, one of those like reverse-WWF Champion belts that those guys wear. THOSE guys.

This Thursday March 1, Stinking Lizaveta and Weedeater are playing Club Midway. I plan to check it out and hand out flyers to Easter's show there on Monday, March 5th at 10pm. A lot of people seemed to dig hanging out on a Monday night last night. We're doing it again next Monday! Come on by!!

Here's my favorite new artist, Nora, the piano playing cat! She's brilliant! Also, here's pictures from the birthday party me and my friends had for me and my friends. It kicked ASS. But I partied too hard and now I have a nasty cold and some kind of fucked up sore under my tongue. Bleah!

But anyway, thanks to all the lovely people who joined us. And an extra special thanks to Nick and Sherine for making this wonderful and HUMONGOUS cake!

Slayer was awesome, as usual. But it's made me realize how much I don't like fat, sweaty, bald men rubbing up against me. Eww!! I also saw a crowd of people there that could only be New York Times jounalists (like, one of them was a menopause-age woman with puppies on her pink sweater) and HELLO.

Okay, here we go again - THIS Monday, February 26th is EASTER's first show. Easter is the Jon Gill/Don Puglisi experience, and what an experience it is! Think of a two-man Black Sabbath meets two-man Bad Brains. And those two men are Jon and me! Awesome! Details:

Sorry about the Monday shows, we are nobodies after all. But if you show up, then we'll be somebody! And maybe then somebody will give us a better night to play! Mondays ROCK!!

Watch this video and just try and tell me you're not totally fucking amped to see Slayer at Hammerstein tonight! Woo!

ALSO - I'll be handing out 200+ flyers at the Slayer show tonight for the EASTER show on February 26th at Lit Lounge. A limited number of these flyers are RED. If you get a red flyer and bring it to the show on the 26th, you will get a FREE EASTER T-SHIRT!!! They're perfect if you have no shirt!

Yes!! My first hairbrained promotional scheme! I'm getting choked up (sniff).

What makes a Superbowl Spectacular?
just look at these pics! The Snap Powers crew put on a party with grace and eloquence as always, or that's what I always assume b/c I never remember them. But this film should sum up everything.

SLAYER at Hammerstein Ballroom, February 15th w/ who really cares? It's SLAYER!!
be there or be not-satanic. I'm going with my gang. Fuck with us and you DIE.

EASTER at Lit Lounge, February, 26w/ Javelina, Chapel Perilous, Maegashira

Yeah!! Please come if you can, I'll buy drinks for as many people as I can and Easter promises to RULE.

RWAKE at Club Midway, April 16th

Rwake makes me insanely jealous of them. Now I have to go to this show so I can hate them even more.
