spring tour update #3

Let's see where were we when I last wrote...right, Lawrence!

We rolled into town and hung out with our Texas friends Kim and Andrew and then found out our Portland friend Laura Gibson was in town playing with Colin Meloy down the street. We soon found her and exchanged wild tour stories (I can't repeat those here.) The show was swell, Jim Button Band and Mursik were great. We got up the next morning and took these photos:

Then we drove to Clear Lake Iowa home of the Surf Ballroom and Buddy Holly's final show. It was pretty amazing. The place was huge and we didn't even make a dent in it with our audience, but they were fun and energetic and the Poison Control Center brought down the house with a killer set.






pretty amazing.

Then tonight we played in milwaukee at the Borg Ward. Fun times...I'm really too tired to write a great entry right now....but soon....you'll see

last night (spring tour update #2)

We played an awesome show with That's My Daughter and Wooden Kites at the Way Out Club in St. Louis. but wait wait....before that, the day started at 8am when we woke up at Matt from Jacob Enwoods house in Fayetteville. He had to go to work so we cleared out and hung out at chickfila for a while before making the trek up to St. Louis. On the way, we stopped at Carthage, Mo where we went to the precious moments cathedral (see pictures in last post.) This place is essential a chaple, a gift shop and a couple different gardens with giant Precious Moments statues everywhere. It was amazing. The chapel was painted like...well the Sistene Chapel if all the characters has giant heads and droopy eyes. After that, we headed up to St. Louis, grabbed some dinner and hung out until the show. Afterwards we went to Marios where he showed us an amazing video of the man we shared a stage with last time in St. Louis: Satan's God.


We've been making some good videos so hopefully something will come out of that once this whole trip is over.

tonight! lawrence with the Jim Button Band!

We leave for an east coast tour in two weeks! I haven't had time to put the dates on our proper website but they are over at our myspace page for now. Once a couple of those north east dates get settled I'll be sending out some "please repost these and tell your friends" type emails. So be on the look out for that one!

in the mean time here is a nice video for you:

I think probably


If some one on American Idol sang either "Never Gonna Give You Up" or "Chocolate Rain" the entire internet would vote that person as the next american idol. Here are some related videos and images.
