"Nachos, Lemonheads, My Dad's Boat..."

OK...so we have a couple shows coming up...Feb 14 (aka Valentine's Day) we're playing at my fave bar ever Finnegan's Grill in Thornwood, NY...it's 21+ but they might be cool if you're underage and respectful...it's worth a shot if you can make it...we'll be playing a longer set than last time and we're gonna try to squeeze in another band...all the info is on our myspace and facebook page...and another show we have locally in the Westchester County/NYC area is Feb 21st in Yonkers at the Haunt on Yonkers AVE...that show is a matinee(2PM)...that's gonna be fun as hell...

Don't worry though, we're working on getting on some tours that swing through your neighborhood...so keep your head up and your support is much appreciated...we like to hear your feedback...the only way this whole band thing works is word of mouth..the more you tell people about us and burn them cds and get people to hear Drive By the faster we'll be in your town...let's get this grassroots promotion army up and running...you keep talking, we'll keep playing and writing our songs...let's do work!

i had mentioned, in a past blog, that my brother and I acquired a gazillion new movies...I'm gonna start writing movie reviews...i did take a film studies class in high school...and i know a Red Herring when i see one...or a McGuffin even...i love watching movies...i even love shitty movies...i HATE shitty movies that are hyped up as good movies though...like old horror movies are meant to be bad movies...but that's why they fill the films with hot ladies losing their clothes while running from zombies, as well as little funny antics, such as,

a zombie who was just chopped up by a lawnmower hits the ground...but his intestines and colon pop up and chase the innocent man...to take it even farther, the colon is letting out farts...sooooooo classic...

i LOVE horror movies(All of them)...i love psycho thrillers(saw, se7en)...as well as comedies(Billy Madison, Super Troopers....), chickflix (the NOTEBOOK) (ha ha), I'm a huge fan of movies that make me think (Donnie Darko)...i love all movies for what they are...so now...I'll start watching and writing what i think about em..

but NEVER listen to ANY review and take it as gold...b/c everyone has different tastes in movies...i have a bunch of friends with all different tastes in music...depending on the movie, I'll pick and choose who I'll bring with me to see a movie...b/c i hate when people aren't into the movie that I'm watching and get bored and just start talking and commenting on it...there are movies you can comment on, mainly comedies...watch a comedy with Jae Hertzberg...he makes funny movies a ton more funny..."Scary Movie 2" is a shitty movie...but Jae made it so worth it and jumped it up to a movie that i STILL quote to this day (Hiawatha!!!!!!!)

I'll be back later with some reviews...

stay golden Ponyboy...

I'm Fitz

Definitely can't wait for you guys to do another tour, I know I miss you guys bunches, and I am sure other people here in Michigan feel the same.

I agree about the movies, I hate when people talk a bunch during a really good movie. Also about people making crappy movies funny.

And I will definitely try and promote you guys more here in Michigan, because I miss you all bunches!
