The show Friday was lots of fun, thanks to everyone who came out and stuck around, and to Sam for drumming. We’ll be there again this Friday in the form of An Invitation to Love.
One last thing about last week though: the Autonomics were added to the bill at the last minute and were pretty great. They’re three 21-year-olds living the dream, practicing 6 nights a week and playing everywhere. And it shows. They play “Shit Luck” as well as Modest Mouse themselves do and you should see them.
What an odd looking title that is. Let me explain.
The Benbow Room is a bar inside the Heartland Cafe in West Seattle (4210 SW Admiral Way). Rock shows are now happening in that bar now, and for some reason I will have played there three Fridays in a row.
My first show was last week, and Sam joined me on drums. We only played a few songs as it was a 5-band bill, but it was a fun night.
Tonight I’ll be playing longer, and hopefully Sam will be able to join me again. I’m opening for Andrew Norsworthy and James Germain and the Grey Gray Days. Here’s a flyer:
Then next week An Invitation to Love will be there, with Rosyvelt and the Chasers. I got a flyer for that one too:
That’s band news, not bad news. The opposite, actually: our EP is finished, and posted up on Bandcamp and on our website, and boom! Right here:

It’s free, so go download it and blast it in your car stereo. There are still some things to do, like pick a cover image, and send copies to press and radio, and plan a release show. Those are just details. We already got some press, from the not-at-all-conflicted ball of wax blog. Thanks Levi!
