June 13th @ The Nomad!

Holy Smokes, I think the roof came off First Ave. last night! I'm still amped from that.



We have a very special show coming up on Friday, June 13th at The Nomad! It is our "video release party" and also the debut of our new light show (hopefully, Dave).



Other great Minneapolis bands will be joining us for the evening as well!

I'll let you know more details as they occur.

After the weekend...d

Check...check... is this thing on?

Wow, what a long weekend! Well, I think my weekend started more on Thursday, though. I saw a sweet show on Saturday at one of my favorite venues in town, The Kitty Cat. Bella Koshka played their hearts out with Hilary shredding on her violin. Also, Painted Saints played after them and I was quite impressed. But I'm a sucker for stand up basses.

What am I doing today, you ask? Ryan and I are going to purchase some new lights and visuals for our future shows. Dave Eller will be our "light guy," so we're very excited about this new direction.

Other than that, I'll be working and practicing all week and looking forward to Soundset '08 this Sunday!

hello there...

This is the first post on our newly created "Inside the Illness" blog...my brother Joe and I will be posting random thoughts, news, ideas and questions, hopefully on a regular basis...we live in Minneapolis, MN, which is a great city...especially now that the snow has melted, and we see the sun fairly regularly...spring means we'll be bumming around Uptown quite a bit...other than that, we spend a lot of time at the practice space, or at home working on new music...we'll have a few more shows around town soon, we just got back from a 2-week tour out to Denver.

That's a little bit about us, so please leave us a little note and say hello...we need help getting used to the world of blogging, which seems daunting, but I'm anxious to get used to it.

Glad to be on board,
ryan and joe
