NORTH VAN BOYS!

Nothing new to report on our end, We played with devotion a couple weeks ago. Headbanging ensued, it was great. When asked: "If you were a giant and everything was really really really big, How could you tell you were a giant" Matt Jolliffe replied by saying "Obviously your pants would be size XXXXXXL" clearly Matt is a genius.

The top image is the fantastic Vancouver Canucks shirt and below is Hunter wearing the cat shirt. Isn't it cool? Here's a testimonial from him regarding the shirt:
‎"Before owning a set to go cat shirt girls never used to pay attention to me. but since getting a set to go cat shirt for one easy payment of $10.00(plus s/h) girls know briefly glance at my shirt before deciding to not pay attention to me. THANKS SET TO GO! you have changed my life!" - Hunter Stephen


I don't actually have a real image of someone wearing this shirt, but I just wanted everyone to know how awesome it is. It really really is amazing. I think you want one. The font was changed. It's in comic sans for extra awesomeness. Sorry for promoting my other band on one of my bands "blogs". I guess that makes me lame...or incredibly cool. STG is going to record a 7" this fall. Will you buy it? I hope so.

This band has been working on writing new shit so we don't have to continuously play our demo over and over again at shows. I'm happy about this. I've made a plan that Hunter vaguely knows about. I don't think Buzz or Matt do though, but now the INTERNET WILL. We're going to record sometime soon and probably do a 7". Do you want to help us put it out? We can give you sexual favours. After the record we're going to record again with our friend Sam MacDonald and do another tape. It'll be keen.

We're playing a show Friday and Saturday. You should come.

TEMPEST!


long time friends tempest have just put out a new record on their label amputated limbs and have now embarked on a canadian tour with ghostlimb. check them out if they are playing near you and buy their record. I assure you it rages hard.
I am really happy to see a band that started out as a few of my friends playing way to loud has been able to evolve into one of the most talented tight and intense sounding bands and that i am fortunate enough to get to see them quite often.
