friday's show was awesome. we ended up playing an hour later than we'd planned (we went on at about 8:30pm... not too shabby) and we had a great time. we love our new songs and we couldn't wait to play 'em for you guys (and by you guys we mean everyone who goes out to shows) and we didn't even fuck them up, so that was a relief. not that we planned on fucking them up but you never know... when you're playing live there's always opportunity to have everything go to shit. all the bands on the show were awesome, all the people came out were awesome, and of course joaquin is THE MAN.
saturday's show was cool too... we played with the main street suits, the mcgunks and bobbie peru. they're all pretty rad bands - the mcgunks are cool dudes (who we were supposed to have a drinking contest with... maybe next time, if the alcohol is cheaper, or free. hah!), and the main street suits were lookin' pretty damn spiffy, what with all their suits and ties and such - we, on the other hand, looked like we'd been attacked by toxic valentines, or something like that (we were so obnoxiously pink and red that it crossed the line from funny to just plain wrong. but when you tell the broads they're gonna be playing a valentine's show, well, that's what you get.) we scared a lot of the nice, bar-going people away with our music... i'm starting to think we're getting too crass & abrasive to be playing bar shows. the other bands were nice to listen to. the broads, not so much. oh well.

in other news, we found out that the folks from CT Scenic have got a little "crushipoo" on us, so that's cool. no, i take that back, that's awesome. we were way too excited when we found out that someone, some [insane] person (and i mean insane in the nicest possible sense of the word, only because anyone who's got a crushipoo on any of the broads has got to be out of their mind) wrote the word "crushipoo" in the same sentence as "damn broads". and not just that, mind you, but they used the word "crushipoo" to describe "damn broads". that's just crazy. and awesome. and we love it.
we wanna thank joaquin, javier, all the bands from friday & saturday night's shows, our bros (specifically andrew, robbie & zeke), and everyone who came out to the shows... you guys are awesome and we love you. if we could write you each a sappy & pathetic valentine's day card, we would. unfortunately we don't have your addresses or enough glitter to make all those cards so you're just gonna have to accept this written paragraph in our blog as your thanks.
so, thanks.
