Banner for upcoming shows

Friday, April 30th, 2010

Got a big banner made at Kinkos for the band. They did a good job. I’d always heard it was important for a band to have a banner to people would know who you were but I never paid it much attention. Then last week Kurt and Jason took up to a bar were some bands were playing and I watched with interests a group who I thought was calling themselves the “Sober Cats”. “Not a bad name” I thought. It went well with the irony of beers in their hands and they had a killer bass player to boot. Only after I talked with the drummer did I learn they were the ”Sobriquets”. Then I decided I better get us a banner before someone mistakes us for the “Messers”, or the “Miss Murs”, or the “Masseurs”, or some such.

Subway Release Party

Friday, April 9th, 2010

Fitz playing bass at Freddie's Beach Bar

We’re very excited to announce that we’re having the Subway album release party on May 6th at Freddie’s Beach Bar in Arlington Virginia (see full details here). We’ve played there before and it’s always a great venue. Colorful, lively, and with a great crowd. The party starts at 8:00 and the band will go on for a 45-minute set at 9:00. We hope everyone can make it.
