New Years Tour

We are lucky to be ringing in the new year with a tour to the American South with our friend and accomplice Warren Franklin.

Plz & Thanksgiving Weekend

As 2010 wraps up and we take our second to last step towards Judgment Day, we would like to thank everyone who has supported us and given us hope this year. We rounded out last year by getting our equipment stolen and sitting on our record. This year, we had the fortune of having Ice Age Records releasing the album on cassette, and the added fortune of being one of Death To False Hope Records' early releases. And upon its release, we didn't catch wind of a single negative review. The people behind the scenes of our band were instrumental in us being able to book our first major legs of touring, and even some incredible weekends on the road. So thank you to Kris, Scotty, Sloane, C French, all the new friends we have made, and all you people who let us invade your headpiece and living space. And thank you to all the people at the Hipster House, Dingus House, The Hexagon and The Showzin for putting on those awesome shows. Every single band we played with was incredible! Probably even the ones we had to miss because we were behind schedule

 Bumfilter @ The Dingus House, Minneapolis, MN

2010: A Pictorial Odyssey

The year's coming to a close, and it's one that gave us a taste of some success. At least the way we measure it. We released an album, witnessed the tearing down of a Frank Lloyd Wright house, got to see NYC, Denver, Pittsburgh, Columbus, drove straight through Nebraska, made a ton of friends, and pretty much broke even. Hopefully we don't get jinxed 2011

November

First off, thanks to Waterworks and everyone who came out to their first show. Chicago is very lucky to have a DIY venue in the loop. Everyone there was stoked on not only that but the show itself.

Awesome line up, BFFs

From Here To Infirmary

This month we have a few things planned already. On Friday, November 19th, we will be going to DePaul to perform a few acoustic songs, and also to hang out and answer some questions. Then, the following weekend, after we all eat massive amounts of shit, celebrate the harvest and thank everyone a million times, we will be heading out on a mini-tour once again, this time to Rockford, Minneapolis and the Quad Cities, which are all home to some of our best friends on this planet. America.

More things might pop up, but we also go to school, and some of us even have shit-paying jobs or no job, so fuck you.

by the numbers

Finally, an accurate review.

Our City Alderman Reviewed Us LOL

This makes me want to show up to that festival in Logan Square on Sunday with a generator.

Colón to grade the musicians in his ward as well as those slated to perform this weekend.

Dude gave us a B...We get better grades in school. Guess we should stick to our day jobs.
