We played in Sacramento at Buff Castle, a super hip clothing store. This was their first show at the store! The last time I played in Sacramento it was at another clothing store - Atelier - and it was also their first show there.

Evan:

you gene, i gene, we all gene for EUGENE

2008-08-24T21:30:00.000-07:00

upon arriving in eugene we ascended straight to the top of spencer butte.

our entourage, comprised mostly of out-of-shape musicians, was a bit shocked to discover that it was actually a pretty tough little hike.

tough enough that cupcake amputated his jeans into shorts at the summit:

nic is so regal. put that in your crown and wear it.

hashi.

we were joined on the show by our good friend bobby.

welcome to tour....

2008-08-23T11:49:00.000-07:00

let's begin by introducing a wonderful cast of characters. . .

nic "cold as ice" zwart, ringleader of the vast desolation wilderness:

the pleasureful percussionist, evan hashi:

he is in a bunch of rad bands as well, like hobby hobby and twig palace.

adam o. the man with square hands.

adam also plays in the bands LAKE and kickball.

and the multi talented cupcake himself, bandrew dorsett:

andrew is also in LAKE, -a, and about 20 million other bands.

we arrived in seattle early-ish and discovered from an acquaintance on the street that our friends karl blau and clyde peterson were performing just a few blocks from where our show was. we stopped by to check out the scene:

karl blau!

your heart breaks!

we played at dog city - the punk house formerly known as 'camp nowhere.' unfortunately this was the last show at this house - it is going to be knocked down in a few weeks and soon a condominium will arise from its' ashes.
