+ Refused/At the Drive-in Reunion Two of my favorite bands, At the Drive-in and Refused, are reuniting to play Coachella. Hopefully both of them will tour because I don’t want to fly to California – or pay for Coachella tickets – to see them. I go back and forth on how I feel about these [...]
Hello, internet people. It feels nice to be back home. I just returned home from a 50 day US tour with Touche Amore and Seahaven so I’m slowly adjusting to not being in constant transit. A couple things: + Arcade Fire – Sprawl II Watching this video makes me want to go back and listen to [...]
Europe has been great so far. We stayed in the punkest place on earth in Copenhagen. A squatted office building. Getting food at shows is incredible.
Bringing a video camera along on tour is bittersweet. You’re torn between capturing the performance on tape or experiencing it without a viewfinder in front of your face. Making that decision is difficult to do some times. Koji covered Wagon Wheel by Bob Dylan/Old Crow Medicine Show at a venue in South Carolina and had [...]
We’re slowly making our way down the interstate to Summerville, South Carolina for tonight’s show. Our friend Phil, singer of the band Octaves, was kind enough to let us borrow his van for the tour after our van’s transmission blew up. We’re lucky to have him along for the trip because along with being a [...]
Sorry for the sporadic updates as of late. Life is getting in the way of this blog but that’s a good thing I guess – better than the alternative of having too much free time. I’ll be on tour for the next week and a half or so but expect some good videos from The [...]
+ Pianos is streaming a new song on Absolute Punk from the split we’re releasing with The Saddest Landscape (who are currently taking pre-orders for their new album “you will not survive”!!!) + Andy was kind enough to post a short blog about what’s taking so long with the splits. We apologize to anyone who pre-ordered. + [...]
It’s nice to be back home. Yesterday was the last day of the Pianos tour. I feel like we accomplished a lot this summer and I’m excited for what’s to come this year. I’m typing this while hanging out in my air conditioned apartment, laying in a bed with clean sheets and resting my head [...]
I’m in Oklahoma City right now hanging out at our friend Leon’s apartment who we met earlier at tonight’s show. Aside from a few minor van troubles, tour has been going well. We only have 8 days left. It’s weird looking back on some of the earlier shows of tour and realizing that they weren’t [...]
