The promise of mutiny..........

is a promise no more. We just officially sold our last available public copy of our first release, The Promise of Mutiny. But fear not, just as the last one was being sent to James MacDonald of Mobile, Alabama, our newest CD, Theories of Sun and Rain, was being shipped to Portland. The new CD will be available through our website as early as next week. We are all very proud of the production, performance and packaging of the thing. It will be available for $11, including shipping and handling with a paypal account. We will also be placing it on CD Baby, as well as the better record stores around town.

can we play there every day?

Last night we played at Mississippi Studios, a fine establishment just north of our frequent hauntings at the pizza pub. We were met on entrance by Steve, their sound engineer, and to understand the importance of that, you have to know something about the sound people (should there be one) at most of the clubs we play. First off, you have the places with no sound person, which means we do our own, and that's just never good. It can be okay, but it'll never be great, and frequently it's only just shy of terrible (for example, the Show Which Shall Not Be Named). Then you have the regular sound guy or woman, who sort of knows their stuff and gets you cords for your mikes, and will test to see if all the DI's work. Ususally serviceable, and generally the bars have terrible acoustics, so they do the best they can. Then there are the standouts, big clubs with great acoustics and and sound person that knows their fucking shit. Heather at Ash Street is one such. And then there's fucking genius sound like an orchestra hall where you can hear every note the banjo plays, perfectly mixed by someone with no fear of whipping iggerant musicians into shape. Steve, sir, my hat is off to you. May we see you again, soon, cuz that show was a high like none other.
