What a hell of a weekend. Spent Saturday with the best Pop Punkers in the world, rocking out at the Break Contest all the way up in Poughkeepsie. The show itself was a blast, and it’s all thanks to you guys for coming out. If you want to check out some footage, click here. (Thanks, Anthony!)
But that’s just the thing. The Poughkeepsie crowd’s got nothing on you guys. You blew the judges away with your insanely passionate support, and I personally attribute all of our success to you guys. Thats right; we’ve made it to the Semi-Finals of the Break Contest. A show here and there, and we’ll be on the Bamboozle stage in a few months. It’s crazy to think about.
This last show really reminded us how much we loved playing music together, and it really got us going. We’ve got some great new stuff in store, including the rest of the Break Contest, a new album in the works (Anyone like “Try?”), and some shows with bands I know have a special place in your hearts and iPods.
So, moving forward, we’re looking to our fans for the support we’ve come to rely on. Things are starting to feel pretty serious, and we’d love to get our name out there more. Some of you already have, but make a Facebook Status, give us a Tweet or two, or hell, even Instagram a photo of you rocking our band tee. Honestly, get creative. Spread the word!
So that’s just about it. I wish I could give you a show date for the second round (we don’t even know yet), but this will have to do: As a thanks to everyone who’s been supporting us, we’re releasing Going Home for FREE download for the next week. If you don’t have it yet, or know some poor soul that doesn’t, send the link around. You’re the best. I love you guys.
As one last gift, enjoy this photo of me making a funny face.
