 We're back. Some of us in the Van got arrested in OK for pot/pipes/open beers, who cares. It was by far the most eventful trip I've been on. There were pickles, skateboards, celebs, smashed windows, blood, peanut butter, sex, moonshine, theft, and rock. This whole trip was documented by our bud Faaj, I'll see what's up with that. Here's a nervous energy session we didn't in Birmingham.

For now you'll have to deal with phone photos until I get the film developed, son.

Bands we saw/played with you should check out.

So we're back from short travels with Bozmo. Too many blurry visions of having too much to drink, too many girls we hit on, too many people we made feel uncomfortable with our obsession of eye contact and dry irresponsible humor and hitting on too many girls. Now that we're back and year is ending I'm starting to get a little nostalgic. 

In this post I'm going to upload some pictures I took & developed during our many travels this year.  Quick shout out to people who don't read this in no specific order..... The World is a freaky place, Music Band, Band Name, Sneeze, Bozmo, Coping, Chandeliers( rip), The Living City, Black Norse (rip). Miss Tito, Ian Van Opijnen, TSK & TSS, Jack & Jeff, that kid Jeremy in Richmond(sorry about that record bro), John McCarthy & the Dark Arts Doom Crew Lifers, Brown, Grillo's Pickles, Orchard Skateshop, Eddie Andre, Ryan Greaves & Michael Guillemette, John Esquivel, Monsignor Elf, Elinora, Rally Owl and the camp hope dwellers (dang that'd be a sick band name) and Martha Vineyard Landbank Commission. I hope I forgot a lot.

 

 

Thanks for a great year. We have one show in January then we seriously need to write so stop asking us to play tight shows...

Chapter 1, OUR INTENTIONS.  

To take September off for writing then hit it hard in the streets during the following months.

Chapter 2, TO A CRAWL

Our activity took a smooth halt to the point where we started denying shows. VH1 probably would have had grim thoughts for the future of the group.
