I'm reminded of a phrase involving asses and cheques.

Thursday, May 15th, The Parlour, 1119 North Main Street Providence, RI 02904. Doors at 8, we go on at 9.

Bring it.





And by "bring it," I mean come on down and I will buy the first 5 ILFers I meet beers, because I don't know if The Parlour will give us that many drink tickets, and I need to be able to afford to buy myself at least one beer of decent quality.

Play more shows. I'll make it out to one of them, at least.

Note to self: do not break up band after first show.

Check!

Seriously, though - we've been really happy how rehearsals have been going, and definitely want to keep gigging out. Hopefully we'll be able to buy at least one ILFer a beer every show (worse comes to worse, I guess Decibill and I can buy each other beers and that will count).

It's official: our one and only Dr. Sherman Sticks is helping out with a short run of sizzurp-purple cassettes. Get at me if you want one. I will definitely post photos when they arrive...

Thanks man! It was great seeing you and getting to hang out. Thanks as well for taking that footage. I can't bear to watch more than a few seconds at a time, but mostly because I think I look like a spastic monkey onstage. But hey - I've been doing it for decades now... apparently that's "my thing."

Also, if any of you have the chance to catch either Small Apartments or Divining Rod play (or Coma Coma, for that matter - but that's only likely if you're in the RI area), by all means do it. Small Apartments: excellent tight indie-rock with a krautrock-influenced motorik chug. Divining Rod: absolutely amazing driving psych rock explorations, like if Hawkwind were influenced by Neu! and Can. The Divining Rod single that's out there is quite good, but the arrangements are way pared down and more "proper song-ish." But I'm ok with that, personally.

I don't think you look like a spastic monkey at all. If you did, it'd be trending.

If you've been trying to look like a spastic monkey for decades, you need to try harder. It doesn't seem to be working.

This is a very good point.

Next show, I'm playing in a gorilla suit.

And passing out from heatstroke halfway through the first song.
