Hi,

Just wanted to thank you so much for reviewing our Best of Me + You Download comp recently. I’m Ted. I’m the guy who did all the interviews and it seriously means a lot to have plugged it on your site! We recently just had the Swedish group Wildbirds and Peacedrums in: http://blog.viva-radio.com/Post.aspx?p=841

Hi there

Would be interested to see what you think of my material. If it’s acceptable, I’ll put together cover art etc.

Hi Andy and Co. We adore your blog!

We’re having a venetian masquerade party this Wednesday (3/24) at The Crocodile with Ravenna Woods and The Horde and the Harem. There should be enough curious characters there to fill a Dickens novel – all dressed in formal attire and wearing venetian masks.

We’re releasing our new record Rotten Apples which was mixed by Steve Fisk, famed Nirvana producer and Sub Pop native. It was recorded with Kyle o Quin and Phil Peterson (Wild Orchid Children/Kay Kay and his Weathered Underground). You should check our our tunes and come out to the show, we’d love to have you cover/photograph/enjoy the ball! Hope you can make it out to the show!

thanks dude!
