We agree with the guy below, though with not as many fancy words. Great set at the boat. Perhaps we can play again in the future.

That was an excellent set at The Boat, a swirling post-rock spectacle, straddling guitar chimes and atmospheric dissonance. A flawless rock flight that takes you somewhere a little left of heaven. Keep to your musical vision.

Love to help any indie groups looking for CD or DVD manufacturing. We have a great fall special on right now. Get your next project ready in time for X-mas... paul@dmadiscs.com

2 great songs you got there boys, one hell of a mean lick in "problem solving". The vocals are mixed in there perfectly not too outfront kind of somewhere between the back and middle, whilst singing through a sewer grate, dirty and distant, I love it. I finish work between 9-10 than I'll be heading down to the show. Awesome job guys

chow for now

THIS SATURDAY APRIL 7th




hey guys !

so i've got some good news. due to the volume of people the last little while the owner has caved into my constant request for another server to be put on during my nights.

On that note, i'd like to extend my thanks to everyone who shows for these nights, your support continues to amaze me and constantly reminds me of how lucky i am to have such great friends.

AND

Saturday May 5th the patio will be open, weather permitting, for you guys and we'll have a dedicated server to that said patio.

PLUS

i've got two other speakers that i can use for the patio while still maintaining the two Behringer speakers i have for the bar. SOUNDS good.

haha oh man i'm good.


I will finally get around to giving out those mastered dj mixes. It's been far too busy the last couple nights but THIS saturday i promise, so when you receive a drink make sure you get a drink TICKET. if you don't just pipe up and tell one of the servers!
