The Shape Of Us To Come
hey everybody.
i'm back from my visit to the fatherland and it was great to see my family and friends over there...we are actually playing 2 shows (for the first time in many years) with my old band MY HERO DIED TODAY in Munich and some other German city to celebrate the release of a MHDT discography on DANCING IN THE DARK records (of old BSF roadie and friend Oise Ronsberger) in December...if you live around the Munich area come to the show on the 27th of December! i keep you posted where the other show will be...
other than that Chad and Nathaniel are on their way to bring Lou Giordano our songs/babies to mix and i can't tell you how much it means, that Lou is doing the mix. He is not only a great and humble guy, but truly one of my favourite producers (i mean, come on...he was the Husker Du sound guy for christ's sake!!!) and he supported us strongly ever since we first met him a while ago...this filthy and corrupt music world doesn't have many people like him in it.
i wanted to take this poourtunity to thank Lou for all he's done for us...
soon we'll get started getting together to rehearse for the upcoming shows and the FATA tour...it'll be nice to see our crazy brothers from strong island again...
ben also promised me to sing on a couple of ryan adams-esque songs i have laying around...we'll see how that goes. he's really the only one who loves mr. adams as much as me : )
(as far as i know anyways...)
so life is good and we're all grateful we were able to make this record and have Lou mix it and so on,,,
be safe and i talk to you soon.
Haribol. Smile.

Ryan Adams is amazing.

I agree. I especially love everything I do (I do it for you) from Robin Hood and when you love a woman.

hey, what's going on here?
where's this stupid COWBOYS-picture, that was on this page yesterday?
i mean i write a somehow critical comment on this item about professwional sports on one day and the other day, the picture and the comment dissappear.
i hope this has any reason but censorship. if i'm not allowed to post critical comments, than farewell, favourite band.
i didn't mean to blame you for being sports-fans, i mean everyone is in some kind of way(for me it's touring car-racing).

Andy, rest assured that BSF did not censor you. C'mon now, do you really think that? This band is all about freedom of speech.
I am sure it was a technical problem. The publishing platform (movable type) was having some issues yesterday so we upgraded this blog to the latest version and everything seems to be working smoothly. Let us know if there are any further problems.

okay, i just hoped for some answer like that. i didn't really believe that they censored it, but i just wanted to be assured.

I hear Lady Liberty is such a slut. She is french after all.

Hey Robert, Welcome Back!!! Hope everything is going good, haven't talked to you since last Halloween. Good Luck w/ everything. Hope everyone in the band is doing well. Talk to you soon.

Hey! What was that about the gig in Munich in December? Yes, please post about it. Honestly I've never seen MHTD live, but if you return to Munich I think I will have to fill the gap.
