| We almost died the other day. No big deal, we're badasses. |

| Holy shit! We flew off the goddamn highway the other day going about 75 miles an hour. It was fucking nuts!
We were driving from Seattle to Salt Lake City for a show, because apparently there's no where in Idaho to play a show. It didn't seem like the road was that bad, but this asshole was driving SO slow in front of us.... He had us Mexican roadblocked for like 10 minutes. When we finally got the chance to pass this guy, in the right lane no less (fucking dick), Tay hits the gas and we started fishtaling like a muh-fucka. We swerved around on the highway for like 200 yards and then the van ended up in the median and we were all bouncing around and shit... We thought the van was gonna flip for sure. Luckily it didn't though. The trailer full of equiptment however, flipped onto its roof. The thing got ripped open like a tine can....
So we got the trailer back onto the van, the axle was fine, and drove to the next truck stop. We bought some tarps and bungees and said fuck it. Let's go Salt Lake to play. So it took us FOREVER to get there because we had to drive 40mph the whole way. Loaded in at midnight. Played at 12:30. 90% of the mud and snow covered equiptment still worked. and we got drunk on near beer.
It was pretty crazy. The trailer is fucked though. Good thing it wasn't ours... Thanks a lot Fight Like Hell!
titties and beer,

| OCTOBER IS GONNA BE A SHIT STORM PEOPLE!!! |
| Sun, Sep. 23 2007 |
| So October is steadily approaching, and good lord do we have some shit going on...
First up, Friday October 5th, we will be playing Pueblo, CO for our first time at Smitty's Greenlight on 3rd & Santa Fe along with our boys White Fudge and S.T.O.I.C. It's gonna be a kick ass mix of Rock 'n Roll and Hip-Hop, so those of you in Southern CO with nothing to do would be wise to make it out.
The next night, Saturday the 6th, we will be providing half-time entertainment during The Rocky Mountain Roller Girls bout against The Pikes Peak Derby Dames. Come out and support the bad bitches as they give Pikes Peak a royal ass tromping and enjoy some quality, mind blowing music at a very reasonable price.
Sunday, October 7th, we are very proud to be opening for the all girl Japanese power quartet, Gito Gito Hustler at Bender's Tavern. Anyone who saw them last time they were in town will testify, they are the shit. Period.
Wednesday, October 10th marks the return of the legendary Hudson Falcons from New Jersey. Mark Linsky is a very old friend of ours (in both ways) and we're always stoked to open for them when they come to town. This will also be our first all ages show in quite some time, so I don't give a rat's ass if it's a school night, get the fuck to the show kids. Also on the bill will be Denver Punk Rock mainstay's Total Annihilation and The First Wave who is on tour with Hudson Falcons and quite frankly, bad-ass.
Friday October 12th, We head out to Grand Junction, CO to the Spotlight Lounge with Hudson Falcons and The First Wave to spread a little unclean love to our brothers and sisters on the western slope.
Saturday October 20th, we head back out to Salina, KS for our homegirl Brandy's birthday bash at The Blue Goat with White Fudge. Every time we go to Salina, shit gets out of control. So those of you in the area who've missed out in the past, be sure you're there. This is going to be the biggest drinking day of the decade.
Saturday October 27th, we return to Casper Wyoming at the Central Wyoming Fairgrounds along with White Fudge and Under The Drone, also from Denver. Casper is another place where the shit goes down, surprising I know, but true none the less.
And Finally, our southeast tour begins on Halloween at The Menaul Tavern in Albuquerque along with Hudson Falcons, The First Wave and White Fudge. I'm still trying to decide whether I should go as a pumpkin or a sexy kitty. What do you think?

All for now
