When in doubt…

Well, well, well.  June’s almost over and we had 2 awesome shows.  Thanks to Rob & Brandy for opening up their home for another show.  Eunuch was rad. The trek up to Milwaukee last week was a success.  Fugitive Kind blew me away.  We all expressed nerdy admiration to them.  We totally nerded out on them, actually.  Hope we didn’t scare them.  Looking forward to the Mary’s Place show a ton.  Daylight Robbery!  The Paver!  Proles!  What more could you ask for?

p.s.   We had to turn off the comments because we were getting spammed, and we don’t know how to stop it!  If you have a comment, email us!  Or even better send us a postcard!

I love Birthdays.

Thanks to everyone who played, or helped make the Midwest Consent Fest a success.  It is great to play shows & take a stand on important issues, especially ones that aren’t usually in the forefront.  Making good consent a priority will help ensure everyone’s happiness, health, and safety.  A good read to check out is Learning Good Consent, by Cindy Crabb.  This is available at microcosmpublishing.com.   xoxomeg

Awesome bands to check out:  Easy Prey from Chicago.  La URSS from Spain.

Generator shows are the BEST shows!

This past weekend was a blast!  We love playing with our Chicago friends, old and new.  Big thanks to The Bloody Rag Collective,  Everything is Ruined, Daylight Robbery, and the Ovens! We don’t have any shows confirmed yet, but there are a few in the works.  When we know more, we shall post it!   xoxo, meg

p.s. Check out the band, Manipulation. (manipulation.bandcamp.com) They’re from Chicago & they are AWESOME! (members of Chronic Seizure, This is My Fist, Cardiac Arrest, No Slogan, and Pedestrians)
