Spaceships, Lazer Juice and Two Last Shows

There comes a time in everyman's life when he must put music aside for a month, travel to San Diego and hone is craft of writing about spaceships, wormholes and lazer juice. Well ok, not every man, but if you are Dustin J. Monk a sci-fi pilgrimage is a priority at least once and we wouldn't have it any other way! What the hell are we talking about? Well Dusty got accepted to a pretty super exclusive writing conference for a month, you can read about it and follow it on his blog . That means we'll be hard at work on our new album ( which will hopefully be an LP this time around) and will be playing two final Chicago shows before the SBL show in August. Here's the info:

May 22nd - Ball Hall ( Loft Party ) 9 PM - (THIRD FLOOR!) 1621 N. Kedzie Ave. Chicago, IL 60647

June 4th - Quencher's Saloon - 9:30 PM - 2401 North Western Avenue Chicago, IL 60647

Both shows are free but they ask for $5 donations. Hope to see you there!

Spencer Bell Legacy Concert in Dallas


Wow, what an event. I suppose we should begin by thanking people, namely: Shannon Edwards, Chau, Suzy, Bill Bell, Dr. Hammer, 100 Monkeys, The Stevedores, Kissing Club, Drew and the Medicinal Pen and Evro!!


We can say, with much enthusiasm, that this was the most fun we have ever had playing music. It's not everyday friends, family and an awesome power outage can come together in such a perfect storm. Thanks everyone, can't wait for August. Happy Trails!

Don't forget to continue the much needed support for Adrenal Cancer Research. Make a donation here: https://www.kintera.org/site/c.kwKTJdNVJrF/b.4340155/k.872E/Give_Online/apps/s/custom.asp?msource=ucCode:cancer-adrenal

Recording Third EP or LP?????

Tomorrow we begin the initial stages of working on our next batch of recordings. We're taking a trip out west to Dusty's house for some very early bass n drum takes.

We have about eight songs and we really dig all of them, so hopefully the entire group will be on our next EP/LP. Two songs we've played before: Marie Antoinette and What Fireworks? The rest are all brand spanking new. Hope to get them up as soon as possible.

Also, Quencher's show in Chicago on Feb 19th, it's free. Click on HERE for a map.
