I’m sort of relieved my demo was cancelled, free time before work!
Putnam, CT was such a blast. Apart from some of the bands taking their sweet time and playing fifty minute sets of devil wears PRADA covers and me getting super frustrated. Im currently listening to Dance Gavin Dance for the first time while Jay drives the van back to Boston. Double work tomorrow!
Ive seen so many friends and so many nice people this evening, such a good feeling!
The Met is an interesting venue.
My week
-Demo today in Providence at Whole Foods University
-LONGSHOT right down the road in Pawtucket
-Show tomorrow in Putnam, CT
-Demo Sunday in Bellingham at Whole Foods in the morning
-Work all night
-Demo Monday in Hingham at Whole Foods
-Work Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday
I’ll sleep when I’m dead.
Today I tried Nutella. Today is a good day.
Apparently the emails I’ve been sending to dairy buyers at Whole Foods at two different locations haven’t been sending because they’ve had issues with their emails -_____- the Internet is annoying.
I wish I enjoyed wine because I feel like it would be great for conversation. At least that’s what I got out of Minus The Bear being a band.
pine-tree-state-dudecore asked: Dude, that split was the greatest, and I'll always love The Kids Can't Lose too. Now that I think of it, you guys shared the stage with TIA at their final show in Providence, right? May as well add that to your list hah.
pine-tree-state-dudecore asked: I think A|O covering TIA could be the greatest thing New England has heard... at least since my dudes in AL4W dropped No Sanctuary haha
The gentleman who fronts o’Brother has an unbelievably captivating voice, it’s been a long time since a band that was new to me has ensnared me as much as this band.
Boston University March 24th
Aviator
Native Wildlife
Actor|Observer
Cerce
Lan Caihe
It’s free, you just need to know someone from BU to get in. BU students, you get two guests. This venue has a capacity of 300 people. Let’s pack the venue and break everything and be punk as heck with my friends and I.
22 days until a new episode of Community
This and only this.
”WE’RE GONNA HAVE MORE FUN AND BE LESS WEIRD THAN THE FIRST TWO(AND THEN SOME) YEARS COMBINED!”
It’s a bummer when a band you’ve heard about and listened to and decided they were good has members that act dumb when you’re trying to coordinate things for a show. It makes me not like your band instantly.
Community comes back March 15th!!!!

Johnny put an Actor|Observer sticker on some parked car’s bumper. Hopefully they don’t think those guys are assholes. Johnny is a reckless child at times. I also put a sticker on the entrance to the Hiltmore…which looks really fancy. #UPTHAPUNX
This is the best thing ever
Jay Cawley is driving our van home from the show
and we are having a completely heterosexual N’SNYC sing a long. These are facts.
About a month ago I played at Northeastern with some friends of mine…and this other band. I’m not going to name names, but they are opening for the upcoming set your goals tour, they act like assholes and treat people poorly. They brought a sound crew, wouldn’t share a table for merch(the venue only had two) and demanded their gear stay on the incredibly small stage and no one...
Lo, my eager eyes will behold the truth.

I just finished adding pictures of my 7’ collection. Such a time consuming task, but it feels nice to add that extra element of ”being a giant nerd” to my life.
Here's what I have going on today:
-work until four
-take pictures of my records for my deadformat tradelist.

Now I’m about to eat a falafel, screw your night
o’Brother killed it, and I have nice friends. I wish I had a significant other to share nights like tonight with.
Completely off from work!
