3/16/09 - we have posted a new song, layout, photos, shirt in the merch store, and video pertaining to how we hand make said shirts with love! It has been a long time coming, we're terrible about staying current but it was time for some CHANGE. we're in the midst of recording a song called "Pick a Day" you may see that pop up here soon. we're also writing and recording a handful of songs to be compiled in a disc format for official release sometime in the fall perhaps... more on this later. If you're in baltimore we have shows coming up that you don't want to miss, especially if you enjoy drink specials and ear pleasure : l - trevor
fun fact: replaced was the first brighter shades song ever.
Hey Everyone!
Welcome back to What The Blog?! This is your chance to get to know us, Brighter Shades, at our most intimate, raw and uncensored!
I (Matt) have never been one for internet dating. In fact, I always found it a bit ridiculous and somewhat creepy. But with its growing popularity, and the constant bombardment of e-Harmony and Match.com commercials during my favorite TV shows, I have to admit I got a little bit curious.
One boring afternoon I decided to sign up for e-Harmony just to see who they thought would be right for me (I wasn’t actually planning on meeting anybody…of course). Little did I know I would be sitting at my computer for the next 2 hours and 23 minutes filling out the incredibly lengthy questionnaire. Upon completing the form, I went to bed with what I now realize was a false sense of accomplishment.
The next night I checked my email, and to my delight, I had received a message from e-Harmony. I quickly opened the message to find that it was nothing less than a f***ing rejection letter. That’s right… of all of the millions of people on e-Harmony, they were unable to find ANYONE to suit me! FML.
Anyway, this experience, in addition to the fact that I am flat broke, gave me a GREAT idea! Starting today, I will be available through the Brighter Shades Merch Store for a romantic evening out on the town!
Oh so tired, i don't think going to bed at 4:00am every night is considered healthy. It was nice meeting you also! I'm getting a ticket whenever i run into you guys or the everlove, hopefully I won't haft to pay in coins...
