Flier for this Saturday's show

R.I.P. Bobby Charles, co-author of the song New Mexicoe is named after (we use the Rick Danko spelling).

Upcoming shows

We have a couple of shows happening in the next month or so, both of which should be great:

1/30 at Braur Falls: New Mexicoe & Uninhabitable Mansions!!!

2/13 at The Local 269... this one is going to be interesting. We've booked three hours (9, 10 and 11pm) at the bar under three different band names. Each "band" will be meeting up earlier that day for the first time, writing as many songs as they can and then, a few hours later, debuting them live on stage. Promises to be a refreshingly amateur gig and a ton of fun. Plus, the other two groups on the bill (at 8pm and midnight) are totally professional, serious acts, who will no doubt be bemused by our shenanigans. BE THERE!!

Feel free to get in touch if you want to be involved, by the way. You don't have to be a musician to be in one of these groups, just interested in having fun and rolling with what is certain to be a strange situation. The more the merrier!

I had to leave early and didn't catch their set. Were you there? How was it??

Hello and Happy New Year!

Sorry for the disappearing act recently! It's been a busy time indeed.

Movie Night: The Band finished its EP, which should be out in a matter of days. Also out in the immediate future: Pet Cemetery's "Summer" EP. Nothing but hits on that one. New 7" for Pet C. in the works, too.

Also, New Mexicoe got together to rehearse and celebrate our drummer's birthday-- HAPPY BIRTHDAY, KYLE!

Bay Ridgers at practice:

Also, I've fallen in love with a Maths patch that our pal Navs cooked up. There's been some discussion of it in the forums, and I thought I'd chime in with my own take on it as well. Maths is controlling everything in this, including itself via some truly clever patching:

Happy New Year, dear readers! I'll post up an MP3-heavy "Best Of" list in a day or two. Clear the decks!!
