Our adventure in the cave



plague vendor kindly asked us on wednesday(?) to play with them on saturday at LA CAVEEE IN COSTA MESA,
when we arrived, we felt as if we were about to enter the restaurant/salsa club that Ricky Ricardo worked at in I love Lucy.
we figured it was owned by a cuban mafioso man with a large belly and greased hair

-dark rooms
-21& over
-getting X'ed up &bullied by the security guards
-classy music & older couples
-"i feel like we should cover some frank sinatra.."
-laughing hard at the situation
-the homies plague vendor
-setting up, buzzed guy "we're ready for you guys to play!"
-dead
-"lets just make this fun.."
-out of step, out of place
-first time with adrian back!
-"is anyone else sweating as much as me?..YES!"
-rude humans who had too much to drink
-pleasant crossing towards bro "i liked you guys man! what are you guys called?..you play a mean bass!"
-"if i catch you with a drink in there..i'm beating your a**"
-great freeway feelings

we learn and learn as we go on,
hahahaahaaaa

thank you plague vendor

do you remember this night?
where we played the last west covina high school "battle of the bands" that we'd experience, being a part of the school?
with all the homies-buster brown, Tijuanasaurus rex, the dares, cubby & the bears, campfire classic, cityscape theatre,etc.
and we ended up winning! and they gave us a hundred dollars to the west covina mall!

well, we've still got those hundred dollars and we were thinking. we want to celebrate this exciting win with all of our friends, with all of the people who have helped out alot, who like or support us in anyway, or with people who want to celebrate summer along with us!

so we got the idea to buy everyone a scoop of ice cream! either at baskin robbins, (that's about two dollars per person right?)
or mcdonalds vanilla ice cream in a cone(one dollar i think?)
and since Andy works at Redwood box in the mall, he has made friends with many mall-rats (employees) & he passes out demos to people who order coffees & lotto tickets, and chocolate bars and everything they sell there. so the manager of Hot Topic asked us to play in the store

EPIPHANY!
we'll play the show, every friend comes, watches, summer celebrates, then we walk down the mall to get ice cream!

hopefully everyone can make it because the more friends, the more fun the whole night will be
if a billion people end up showing up for the show and ice cream, we'll have to do a stamped hands, first come first served 'til we run out of the hundred dollars, but hopefully everyone can get ice cream

let us know if you plan on coming so we can semi calculate
bring a friend!

get wild!

Donkey Patches



our first piece of merch!
these donkey patches took long to make, plus i'm amateur, but andy was pro, a true paintbrush in the lines guy!
watch out artist institute, donkeys are unloved most of the time
set aside for the greater animals, like the beautiful horses that they look up to.
we decided it was their time to shine

Let us know if you want one!
they're only 50 cents, that's what you're left with once you buy


and hand the cashier $2
it's worth it, you can sew it onto your favorite pair of jeans, your moms beach bag, your old jacket cardigan or clown suit.
who am i to dictate what to do with it,
get wild!

Mental Constitution

There's one thing you should know about
There's one thing you should know about
There's one thing you should know about

Re-peeling the same orange, take it from me
you'll get stuck with sticky fingers, citrus redundancy
Different worlds of flavors, climb a different tree
it's all mind games, clever words & repeated looks

Nothing new through this progression
now take the bait they've lured you in
follow the stream towards...
strap the drum onto your waist if noise is so absurd
Loud enough to be heard! Loud enough to be heard!

Dwight...here
George...here
Samuel...here
Abraham...here
Franklin...here
John...here

you claim you're being fooled
but if you really read into what's in front of you
the fog grows thin, the fog grows thin
the fog grows thin, the fog grows thin
human flesh human skin human breath human sin
human flesh human skin human breath human sin

Nothing new through this progression
now take the bait they've lured you in
follow the stream towards...
strap the drum onto your waist if noise is so absurd
Loud enough to be heard! Loud enough to be heard!



we finished recording this song at phillips this week, listen & tell us what you think!
thank you phillip, three beers & a back rub was well worth all of our A.D.D moments and constant pokemon distractions?
get wild!

4+ 1 Members

about a week ago, andy, adrian and I were walking into




in Baldwin Park, we're just about to enter when adrian says "...hey guys.....i can be in the band again."
this means


PARTY TIME FOR EVERYONE!




adrian was pretty much the reason why we wrote a four song demo in one month, he's got extremely catchy and creative ideas swinging around in his playground of a mind, he quotes too many movies, always has his pokemon deck with him, knows every blink 182 song on bass, writes stories, has nervous ticks and side glance conversations and all in all is a great friend and musician!

so to say the least...yeah.
we're excited.

expect along with us, new music. good new music
along with the three new songs we already have
1. $
2. Mental Constitution
3. Utopia

...once we get about five more songs we'll record again with felipe


we wanted to share this big change with you
no longer a four piece...a five piece!
two guitars
we're thinking this will add greatness to the adventure, it's still not final but it's getting there
GET WILD!


p.s.:listen to Moldar's new music
http://www.myspace.com/moldaro
it's too good

"but if i help an elder i can become a wilderness explorer..."

this will be our online adventure book. It will help our memories in the future and remind us of all the past fun, and keep things updated. If you haven't seen the movie UP yet, you should, it rules!

thank you to Kitten for asking us to play last minute; they are official hawmies now.

Aside from the cholo homeless guy telling me "WHATAREYOULOOKINGAT!?" at subway, everything went great.
we really wanted to play on the ground, but we wanted to be together(like a happy family) and the drums were already mic'ed on the stage
