Spring to Summer

So, just like intro/changes, we're experiencing our seasonal transition into summer. This means three things:

1. John is playing baseball. You can follow the action here. If you're not a baseball fan, then you can follow the World Cup (Football), or the US World Team Trials in wrestling.

2. We're transitioning our spring line of gear into the summer line and knocking money off of t-shirts, closing out the sweatshirt and taking a buck off each of our 7"s at the webstore. Once this stuff is gone, we'll replace it with new stuff before our tour.

3. Our European tour dates have been finalized:

So in preparation for this, Hess is pumping iron, I'm going raw foods, Chuck is getting tattooed, John is getting a haircut and Geoff is skating every day. I think we'll be ready by July, especially since Robert at Refuse Records has been laboring tirelessly to help us put out two new releases!

Coming soon to Refuse Records:

Right Way 7": This is the 8 new songs we recorded with John D at Negative Space in January. It's a straight forward hardcore record, you know, a couple colors of vinyl and the clean layout of one John Millin's design hand/mind. It's also the first record we wrote/recorded with Geoff in the band, so you know it's good. You can still hear a new track here.

Our Way Discography CD, one easy-to-find volume of all of our recorded works including rare and b-side tracks and covers. This includes the Demo, Our World EP, the cd sampler, the Right Way record and some b-side tracks from the archives. The idea was to put all of our tracks together for kids in places where vinyl is expensive to ship, the internet doesn't make it easily downloaded, and turntables might not be super common. We hope to have this distributed worldwide, so please get in touch with Robert Refuse if you'd like to carry it in the Philippines, Malaysia, Korea, the Ukraine, South Africa, Fiji, wherever.

To get ready for all of this, we're going to be playing on Friday April 23rd at the Tower with the Basement Boys. We'll see you there. Until then, here's a video:
