BIG POST: IfIHadAHiFi Summer Tour 2009!

[starcastic]

Hey everyone! Just thought I'd drop some info on my band's upcoming tour just in case anyone would want to come out and show support and/or join in on the madness.

We're called IfIHadAHiFi and we're from Milwaukee, WI. Here's a stupid picture of us stumbling onto the birthplace of the typewriter:

<-- That's me- oblivious to the birthplace of the typewriter.

We're heading out in less than a week playing shows all the way to the west coast and back for 16 days. Here's where we'll be:



8.21.09 Madison, WI: Willy St. Pub (The Wisco) w/Self-Evident, The Suit
8.22.09 Minneapolis, MN: Sauce w/Self-Evident, Speed's the Name
8.23.09 Bismarck, ND: Project Noise
8.25.09 Missoula, MT: The Badlander w/Arrested Adolescence
8.26.09 Bellingham, WA: The Old Foundry
8.27.09 Seattle, WA: The Funhouse w/Police Teeth, The Bismarck
8.28.09 Portland, OR: The Know w/Rapids
8.29.09 San Francisco, CA: Hemlock Tavern w/Mount Vicious (CD RELEASE), Pegataur
8.30.09 San Francisco, CA: Second SF show TBD
9.01.09 Denver, CO: Curtis Street Tavern
9.02.09 Wichita, KS: Kirby’s Beer Store
9.03.09 Warrensburg, MO: Bottomfeeder Bay w/Them Damned Young Livers
9.04.09 St. Louis, MO: Lemp Arts Center w/The Conformists
9.05.09 Des Moines, IA: The Haunted Basement w/Beati Paoli, Wolves in the Attic

We're loud/noisy, but fun/danceable. We're sometimes compared to bands like Brainiac, Six Finger Satellite, and Sonic Youth. We occasionally frighten the elderly and the occasional soundguy, but we're really just big ol' cuddly teddy bears. Here you can hear us AND see our teddy bear asses...

All music videos are from our latest album Fame By Proxy:

sounds cool

[Ghost Hip]

But I don't live in any of those places.

Oh well, i shall wait!

[jrmy]

No New England?

Me am saddened.

Have a great tour, though...

[Nychthemeron]

I have to leave the SF Area tomorrow. Bummed that I can't make it! Oh well, have fun rocking out guys.

It's going to be so much fun. Two weeks is the perfect amount of time away from home. Can't wait!

But I don't live in any of those places.

Oh well, i shall wait!

Soon-ish! We're long overdue to hit up Michigan again.

No New England?

Me am saddened.

Thanks, jrmy! We did a few dates in New England last year and it was a lot of fun... I think this coming year we'll be going back. New England is one of my favorite regions to play, hands down.

I have to leave the SF Area tomorrow. Bummed that I can't make it! Oh well, have fun rocking out guys.

Can't wait to visit your city! I've heard so many great things and we have some awesome friends there. San Fran is going to be a ridiculous party!

[Scruffie]

Well I certainly dig the tracks... but for some reason you aren't playing in the U.K... this saddens Scruffie

[Nychthemeron]

While you're in the Bay Area, you should hit up BART to Downtown Berkeley (about a $5 round trip back to SF). Lots of cool stuff there. The Starving Musician is a few blocks away from the station and has a lot of cool gear.

[starcastic]

Excellent! Thanks for the heads up!

[V0id]

What about an european tour?

[starcastic]

What about an european tour?

That's a possibility in the future. We have friends who have done it and had good times. I'm sure it'll happen someday!
