chilling, shows coming up, you know

Sorry it’s been a while since we have had an update but it has been somewhat quiet around these parts. we find ourselves in the unlikely situation of simply chilling around the house waiting for the record to come out so we can start the touring cycle again. nathan is doing interviews, mostly making up stories about his redneck past.

Chad and i are in the basement fixing computers so we can finish recording the full length record for the Look Machine. Special thanks to Jack who drove down from New Jersey to help us. Thanks Jack! Jack also gave us a demo for his band one win choice that is pretty darn good.

Robert is exploring baltimore and becoming a ravens fan and matt is playing in a new band with our friends called piss and vinegar (the friends are lee and pete) who are playing at the east end this friday night with blackthroat and clobbersaurus.

we are actually playing some shows in this next month the soonest being at montclair state university in new jersey. its a free show and should be fun. we are also playing at rex’s on february 25 and at the north street bar in philly in early march more details coming! talk to you soon.....j

a fun game we all can play together

so i am an official “office” freak.
for those of you who don’t know (and i pity you!) the office is a brilliant mockumentary that allows us a tiny view into the lives of people working in a paper company. the american one is of course based on the british one which i fell in love with on one of our first transatlantic flight. i was laughing like a loon, ensconced in headphones, drawing the bemused looks of pity mixed with derision from my fellow passengers who to be honest really have no room to speak because they are probably watching the son of the mask or some crap. whatever. both versions of the office work because they have a great cast led by ricky gervais in england and the incomparable steven correl is the usa. but i really didn’t want to discuss the office today.

the reason i bored you with my love of the office (by the way, if you are counting, this is officially the third (((at least))) “this is gonna be big” prediction to come true. first was green day (not bad!) then came muse, (noone knew them in america), and then came the office. i am amazing!!))) is that in a recent episode entitled the fire the rag tag ruffians had a day free where they were extra bored. so they played a couple games to pass the time.
the first they played was “who would you do?” which we aren’t gonna play because i dont wanna offend your mom. then they played “desert island” which is were everyone named the five books and five dvds they would take if they were stranded on a desert island. because i like music we will add cds to the mix.
books
1. redneck manifesto- you gotta read this!
2. the communist manifesto- mmmmm...you thought i was gonna ring that dumb o’rielly book?
3. confederacy of the dunces- one of the best books ever.
4. witch- a really clever take on the wizard of oz.
5. the kite runners- i actually cried when this book ended. fuh real
dvds
1. farhenheit 9-11. duh
2. the godfather
3. batman begins
4. battlestar galactica
5. uh...forty year old virgin. i couldn’t think of anything awesome.
cds
1. refused- shape of punk to come
2. the clash- london calling
3. the smiths- the queen is dead
4. u2- october
5. samiam- soar
you know what? i have excellent taste! beat this. \

diary

dear diary,

sorry for not writing in oh so long, but the holiday's have been extra relaxing and i couldn't get myself to turn on the digital typewriter...munich is just too pretty to sit inside in the wintertime. i love my city!!!

speaking of cool cities...

...we have the new european tourdates on here under THE STREET...check it out and come by if you have a chance!!! these shows should be extremely fun, since the new record will be out and we're just overall stoked to be alive and touring at the very moment...noise, sweat and no tears!

after this european tour is over we'll hit the street in the US, so stay tuned for further news and dates on that...and then we pretty much won't stop playing out for quiet some time...so look out!!!

what can i say?! thank you all for hanging in there with us and a good start into the new year from your german friend.

holidays are over, thank god

hey all,
i hope you all had a wonderful holiday season replete with sugary plums dancing around your head and the thought of aught 6 making your little wiggly bodies wiggle with excitement because this is the year we put out our fourth full-length record, our joshua tree so to speak. i hope at the very least your holiday season was better than mine because mine was horrid. anyway, that new record with the long-ass title “the misery index; notes from the plague years” (i just realized that that title is literally one letter away from being a dentistal statement. huh, funny! (notes from the plaque years, much better!) anyway, i know it is far away, but we got our tour initial schedule for europe all done and the us one coming soon. check it out.
