I can get a show in Duluth sometime this winter if we can manage a set that's between 30 minutes and an hour. We'd be playing with my brother's band probably at some place like Pizza Luce or Dose Quarters.
So when are you guys available this winter? I think if we just practice sometime this winter we can book a show on a weekend sometime and we don't necessarily have to play during winter break, however that would be ideal.
My brother also gave my number to a friend he knows in Rochester who has a band to see if he can get us any gigs in that area.
And while we're looking into gigs, it's time to make a press kit. If we pick the best four or five live recordings from BOTB that were just posted a while back, that would be a satisfactory demo for most low-end gigs which is what we'd be looking at for this winter.
So what we need is four of those live songs for a demo, a few photos, and background info. I realize that pretty much all of these things are on the site already, but we should put it all together and figure out what songs, photos, etc. we want in the press kit. It wouldn't really be any work at all except printing things off and mailing them. And picking them.
Alright. We need five things:
1. Would you be interested in a show in Duluth?
2. When are you guys available?
3. What songs go in our demo? (Fans should sound in on this one too.)
4. What pictures go in the press kit?
5. What do we want for background info?
GOD DAMN IT I WANT TO PLAY WITH YOU GUYS AT THIS WINTER THING SO BADLY BUT I WON'T BE ABLE TO. Have fun...
Posted by: Taylor at September 14, 2005 01:50 AMI'll be gone from the 23rd to the 29th.
Posted by: Nate at September 14, 2005 11:20 AMAll: I should be more or less available between December 21st and January 17th. I think our demo songs should be Justin's Pants, Rhyming Dictionary, Peter's Calves, and Pizza Day. Possibly España.
Nate: So are you available after Dec. 29th and before Feb. 6th? If so, we should probably plan for something in January.
Taylor: Is there ANY way to get back for just a few days in January?
Posted by: Andrew Richner at September 14, 2005 01:55 PMI don't know when J term starts here, but earlier rather than later would be good.
Taylor, you should learn to teleport. Not kidding.
Sounds good on demos ongs, give it a shot, I'd be in. I'll drive, I'll suck someone's cock (maybe), I just want this to happen.
Posted by: Michael A. Harms Esq. at September 14, 2005 02:13 PMI will be here because I am not in college yet. The songs sound good to me. Um... ALL WHO WANDER ARE NOT LOST!
Posted by: Justin Bunke at September 14, 2005 03:27 PMTHANK YOU BUMPER STICKER
Posted by: Michael A. Harms Esq. at September 14, 2005 04:35 PMI'm sorry, but I really don't want to play in Duluth. Too far away for my drums, I think...
START SEEING MOTORCYCLES
Posted by: Nate at September 14, 2005 11:15 PMWow.
So does Love Ugly still exist Mark?
i saw a motorcycle yesterday
The guy on it was wearing headphones. Big ones. Like Nates. That seemed unsafe.
Posted by: Michael A. Harms Esq. at September 15, 2005 06:14 PMKERRY '04
You know, playing someplace other than Rochester is probably the best idea anyone has had. Get this thing rolling, take it somewhere. Heck, I'll go get Taylor, no blow job needed.
GIVE PEACE A CHANCE!
Posted by: Einstein at September 15, 2005 08:29 PMWell, if we play, we do need Nate. And I don't know if Love Ugly exists still, I have one more person to ask to find out though. Duluth would be fun to play in, however. I agree with the song choice also. And I suppose I could take one for the team and sucka dick or two.
WELCOME TO THE LIQUID JUNGLE
Posted by: The Reverend Doctor M. Flash at September 15, 2005 09:51 PMI am just wondering how the distance will affect the drums in any way.
Posted by: Justin Bunke at September 16, 2005 07:12 AMi'm more wondering what's up with
THESE AT THE END OF POSTS
not to say they aren't great, just curious.
SAWED OFF SHOTGUNS ARE A DOUBLE BARREL O' LAUGHS i guess
Posted by: Michael A. Harms Esq. at September 16, 2005 07:40 AMYou started it.
I HAVE THE PERFECT BODY, IT'S IN THE TRUNK AND STARTING TO SMELL.
(You always notice it's the ugly girls with that one??????)
What color is mauve?
A moderate grayish violet to moderate reddish purple.
Anyhow, I'm not sure on Love Ugly yet, but, I got an email back from the guy who books Ultra Lounge. We'll see what can happen with that. I'll keep everyone posted, I told him that a show in mid to late-mid December would be best. So, could you all please get me dates that you cannot play, that would help.

Posted by: Nate at September 17, 2005 12:18 AMWho cares? Out of sight, out of mind, says us.
Posted by: Michael A. Harms, Esq. at September 17, 2005 01:59 AMI saw Beck yeterday, and it was really sweet.
If anyone has any idea who that awesome dude was who opened for him, i'd like to know.
Posted by: Michael Harms at September 20, 2005 01:06 PMThat dude ruled, just say yes and do it.
Posted by: The Reverend Doctor M. Flash at September 20, 2005 05:20 PMHaha. Yes the first guy was amazingly awesome. Beck, however, was just plain kick ass. Best show I will ever see.
Posted by: Justin Bunke at September 20, 2005 07:57 PMwww.mcrorie.net
videos and songs
oh god
When Beck did Hollywood freaks out of no where, I pretty much partied.
Then again, every song he did was super cool.
Posted by: Michael Harms at September 21, 2005 09:27 AMassholes

Actually planning on it this Friday/Saturday. Just talk to me if you want to set something up.

Posted by: Nate at September 22, 2005 03:53 PMTake a guess.
Posted by: EMAIL ADDRESS at September 22, 2005 04:08 PMAdam Rindone?
Posted by: Nate at September 22, 2005 06:47 PMYour close. Think of someone at our high school with that last name. I think you'll be able to get it from there.
Posted by: Einstein at September 22, 2005 07:58 PMI miss you guys. Come back from college.. please?
Posted by: Bottle at September 22, 2005 08:40 PMCould you give me some more hints? I'm not Einstein, after all lol.
Posted by: Nate at September 22, 2005 09:17 PMMan Einstein ... your EMAIL ADDRESS sure does seem to resemble someone else's EMAIL ADDRESS. Are you like related or something?

Posted by: Hannah at September 27, 2005 02:54 PMIs it me or is this message board not the best place to decide things?
Posted by: Einstein at September 27, 2005 03:35 PMGood point ben.
I'M COMING AND EVERYONE TELL ANDREW TO COME TOO
yes we should practice.
Posted by: Michael Harms at September 27, 2005 06:37 PMI think I've convinced him to come home.
Posted by: Andrew at September 28, 2005 02:07 PMHEY!
HEY GUYS!
WHO WANTS TO PRACTICE ON SUNDAY?!?!?!?!
MIKE AND I DO!
COME ON NATE AND JUSTIN AND RICHNER AND...... WANG!
Posted by: The Reverend Doctor M. Flash at September 28, 2005 09:59 PMSorry, but I'm returning to St. Olaf on Saturday night (gotta sing Sunday morning).
I'm coming back Friday. Should be in Rochester around 6.
Posted by: Nate at September 28, 2005 10:58 PMIs anybody else secretly laughing at this psuedo-"Three Stooges" little event going on. You guys want to practice, but no one is ever in Rochester at the same time. And nobody can find David, unless I missed something. This is giving me a good chuckle and perhaps a chortle too. Thanks.
Posted by: Einstein at September 29, 2005 12:53 PMMoe is their leader.
Posted by: Nate at September 29, 2005 01:28 PMCHORTLE, I CHOOSE YOU!!
Posted by: Ash at September 29, 2005 02:15 PMWhat? Chortle is evolving!
Chortle has evolved into Warchortle!
Posted by: Brock at September 29, 2005 03:55 PMWarchortle: A jabberwocky type pokémon.
Posted by: Pokédex at September 29, 2005 06:19 PMFREE CHIPOTLE BURRITO ON YOUR BIRTHDAY!
Posted by: Burrito God at September 29, 2005 09:28 PMokay I'm honestly starting to get worried about David
Posted by: Michael A. Harms, Esq. at September 30, 2005 05:49 PMMy friend's mom works with David, I think. I could ask her to get in touch with him, if you guys want.
Posted by: Derek Britson at October 1, 2005 10:22 AMI will get you for this Ash Ketchum!!!!
Posted by: Einstein at October 1, 2005 10:45 AMOKAY IN THE INTERESTS OF SHIT GETTING DONE
WHat is the start and end of everyone's winter breaks?
I think I'm here from Dec 15-Jan 3rd
Posted by: Michael Harms at October 4, 2005 05:12 PMDAVID IS ALIVE! AND HE IS WORKING AT THE NORTH PANERA!
Posted by: The Reverend Doctor M. Flash at October 4, 2005 05:12 PMI should be more or less available between December 21st and January 17th.
Posted by: Andrew Richner at October 4, 2005 06:50 PMHave a good time, all the time.
Posted by: Tanner at October 4, 2005 07:55 PMI dedicate this post to David Wang.
Posted by: Justin Bunke at October 5, 2005 07:12 AMhi tanner
hi justin
I'm going to go see david sometime
I had an awesome dream that we were at some function of some sorts, and David and Mr. Larson were passing around a handpipe and smokin' weeeeed.
It rocked.
Posted by: Justin Bunke at October 6, 2005 07:02 AMI'm guessing the whole "let's call David" thing hasn't worked out, but can't Bunke or someone whos in Rochester just go talk to him? He doesn't bite, at least last time I saw him.
