Just found out one of my favorite bands in the area broke up. I won't name names, in the hopes that it's something that's not final, but damn. They were really damn good and I was looking forward to hearing new stuff from them. I'm bummed about it. If you're going out tonight, have a few drinks in memoriam.

Roy moved into the neighborhood (finally!), so now the Nexus is complete and all four Alouds live in a one-block radius. Not sure if that's cool or if it's just sad, but either way... no more out of the way trips to Watertown!

We were on Scamper's third podcast last week, Can You Hear Me Now? made it's podcast debut as did some of Jen's drunken babble. I had a few things to say to Nate's digital recorder yesterday, so let's see if that makes it in a couple of weeks. Ha!

What else... what else..

Oh yes, album artwork is all but complete. We're looking at a release for it in very early May.

What's it going to be called? What's going to be on it? How much longer are you going to lead us on, ya fucks?!

Okay okay. *ahem* Our 11-song album is going to be called Leave Your Light On. I'd also like to take a moment to dispel any rumors on the title: it has nothing to do with another record of a similar name. Most of you should know it's a lyric in Godspeed (which if you haven't heard, you should download the live version here). However, our next single is going to be called What A Frame.

Kidding. Or am I?

As for what's going to be on it:

1. Release
2. Palm of Your Hand
3. Beaches
4. Can You Hear Me Now?
5. All I Can Do
6. Slipped in Your Dream
7. Bleeding Heart
8. Love is a Beast
9. Wouldn't It Be Sweet
10. Late Last Nite
11. Godspeed

And there you have it. That's all the news that's fit to blog.

Oh wait, right, we're playing Harper's Ferry next Thursday and you all had better come! Or else. Or else what?

Exactly.

Huh?

Cheers,
Henry
