Every Wednesday in February@Momo’s, kids:

Since we’ve had to kinda hang around Austin and not hit the road for an extended period of time as we put the finishing touches on the new record, we thought we’d do a residency rather than just sitting around on Wednesday nights – every Wednesday in February at Midnight, at Momo’s…these won’t be ordinary shows, we’re going to try and mix it up every week – play lost and forgotten songs, special guest appearances, etc. and we get to share the bill with not only good friends but also some of the most talented folks in town, like Drew Smith’s new band TED, Suzanna Choffel, and a host of others…mark your calendars folks, Momo’s is the place to be on Wednesdays…

We’ve also got some cool shows later this week – we’re opening for English alternative legends Gene Loves Jezebel on Thursday at 8:30pm at Momo’s, and then Saturday we hit the road with our comrade Jeremy Nail to share a bill in Lubbock at Bash Riprocks…see you out there~

There’s a great article in the latest issue of the Nation:

In this article we hear from various contributors on what they believe were the highs and lows of Obama’s first year in office…among the contributors is Howard Zinn, who passed away today at 87, a gadfly whose insights will be sorely missed…Check it out HERE, a lot of differing viewpoints, worth reading.

In other news, we picked up a last minute show tomorrow, Friday Jan 29, at Revolution Cafe in Bryan TX – hope you Bryan folks can make it, should be fun…and of course don’t miss the rock extravaganza on Saturday night at Momo’s with the Greyhounds, Dertybird, and more, we go on early at 9 sharp, don’t miss…all for now, the new record is in the mastering stage, we can’t wait for you all to hear this thing, oh man oh man~

Thanks to Coffee Sergeants, Guy Forsyth, and T-Bird and the Breaks for making this event a success…we got a pair of shows at Momo’s in Austin this week–a stripped down, mellow affair on Wednesday Jan 27th at 11pm, after our buddies in TED; then on Saturday Jan 30th, we’re doing our full-tilt rock show at Momo’s at 9PM SHARP, this will be a good one, Dertybird, Greyhounds, and many more…more later, cool stuff to announce next week, until then~
