We leave for tour tomorrow. It will be an exciting and interesting time. We can't wait to sleep on the floor of a van and not shower for days on end. If you want to keep up with the tour, we'll be posting videos to our YouTube page (HERE).
We hope to see you on tour! Remember that our album Blueprints will be available for purchase at our shows for $12. See you soon.

Sean and I had the great privelage of being interviewed on a local Minneapolis podcast called "Flak Radio". Taylor Carik and James Norton were nice enough to let us into their abode and subject us to questioning of the musical type. Our interview with Flak Radio is now up on their website. Head over HERE to listen to it!

Tracking for Blueprints is done. A week from today we get it mastered and in two months you will be able to purchase on store shelves. How exciting. Be on the look out for new tracks to show up somewhere... like HERE.

Last Update: August 23rd, 2008 (12:30am)
Wow. It has been quite a while since our last update. But we have been busy in the studio tracking for Blueprints. So the wait has not been in vain. We finish tracking this weekend and head over to get it mastered shortly after Labor Day. So things are going smoothly. Hopefully we can keep our confidence up.
Take care.

So we've spent a few days in the studio. And we are really satisfied with how comfortable the whole transition has been from the stage to the studio. For your interest, we have been keeping a video log of our adventures. You can view all of the new videos HERE or HERE.
Also, we have been taking lots of photos for the nostalgia. Feel free to participate HERE.
