working on the third album

it seems like not finishing anything has become my style.

we got the pro tools sessions from chris cosgrove about a month ago for the seccond album, and i've almost got the mixing done, but we're already starting on a third album. the first album (fractals in heat) still hasn't been released because i stopped mixing it when we started on the 2nd album (casino economy). if i don't finish mixing the 2nd album soon, i'm pretty sure i'll lose interest and just start working on tracking the 3rd album.

i need to take some focus drugs and make lists of things to do to get these first two albums done, or i might just let them die. if you want a copy of either one, i can send you a link to a zip file of the latest mixes or something.

here's an mp3 from practice a few days ago, we're working out parts for the new songs that will be on the third album. this song is called 'shockwaves'.

we'll be playing a few kc shows this spring, and we'll probably do some regional touring in the fall. we're playing at recordBar with a pretty awesome band from vancouver called brasstronaut on march 29th.

and we're playing with a really, really awesome band from lincoln called pharmacy spirits at the riot room on tuesday may 4th.

i'm sure we'll be playing some lawrence shows this spring too.

if i can pay attention long enough, i'll try to finish up the first two albums and get the goodwillies remix of fractals in heat put on tape before these shows we have coming up.
