Hi there Batteries first of all we'd like to say thanks for being our myspace pal. We wanted to make sure you knew the reason incase we suddenly vanish off of your friends list. The movement we've started for indie artists has grown significantly and consumes all of our time these days. We seldom sign into our myspace account and this is making several people believe that we are ignoring them. We are not ignoring anyone, we wanted everyone to know that. What we're doing has become so busy we just don't have the time for myspace any longer, so in all honesty we are probably going to just close our myspace account.
Many people wanted to use us in the future so if you were one of those people make sure you bookmark the link below so that in the event that we do close our myspace account you won't lose contact with us. I wish you the best of luck in your music career. Thanks again for being our myspace pal.
We have also built a pretty big music community which you are welcome to join if you want to meet new artists like yourself!
hey! sorry i couldn't make it to the show a couple days ago, my car decided to overheat and almost catch on fire on...thursday?? so i couldn't make it over there. i am sure it went well though. any other shows in the works?
You guys played a great set tonight, even if the sound people didn't know what they were doing! Any idea when the next show will be? The new songs sound amazing!
hey so i saw some pictures that my friend took of you guys, so i decided to check out your music, and im really glad i did :) because i realllly like your music.
Yeah I was pretty late so I only saw you guys play and that cookie monster band that played before you. Agreed though. Hanging and flyering would be most excellent.
