Southern States are lifelong friends Cletus(ex-Cursive Youth), Charlton (ex-Dianogah(the original)), Marshall (ex-Trotsky Ate My Baby), and Ringo (ex-The Blastards). All instrumental, songs about birds or fish, they are breaking up FOR GOOD. This is the only chance to see them on the East Coast, and the last chance.
The Radio Silence is from the Triangle area. I don't know anything about them other Thurston assuring me that they are really great. Quiet, but great.
(Not Pictured) are a bunch of guys who like the Cure. We kicked their ass in the primaries. If you don't know them, you should; they're ultra sweet guys. Rothgar does not like them.
Maple Stave is us. As the future goes, Matt C. and Chris H. are presumably staying up here to attend school, Matt B. is traveling to Europe to do many great things, and Chris Z. is going to Chapel Hill to play music and maybe teach or something. If Maple Stave is around a year from now, the latter Chris will probably be its sole member, so come out now because we all know how much those solo shows suck.

Sing me softly to sleep...

Recorded a bunch of songs tonight for the tape. Came out really raw sounding, guitars sound distorted as all shit, but you can actually distinguish that there are two guitars (even though there was only one mike).
If we decides to keeps, we might have pretty much the whole sh-bang done with, with the exception of a song or two.
And we thank our honorary fifth member, Jason Roberts, for rocking out the low end noise, and honorary sixth member, Sam Summers, for sitting there and humoring us (and for telling us that "Lullaby" reminds him of when you get to smear butter and jelly on toast at the Huddle House; which apparently is a good thing).

Off to bed? should be.
