Keep on Keepin' On...

so, yes. it IS true. it's officially been over a month since either one of us has updated the blog. it's not that we didn't want to, it's just that we've been busy doing the not-so-exciting things that have to be done in preparation for the record to be released. this includes going over contracts, creating a bio and press release, doing interviews, having press photos taken, making final decisions on the masters and the artwork, etc. oh, and i think we managed to squeeze a show or two in between all of those activities.


i realize this is old news by now, but i do feel it's appropriate to mention the fact we elected an excellent new leader for our country. HOORAY! here's a photo i took of a painting in some art gallery in Manhattan during CMJ this past October:

and here's a photo i took at the final rally before the election, under the arch, in St. Louis, MO.

pretty epic, right?


oh, we hope you had a good Thanksgiving, too.

Awesome, guys. I hope you're pleased with the end result of all that meta-work, the press releases and photos and all. Did you get any creative control/input on the marketing they're doing?

See you in Nashville!
