People have asked if it’s going to be available on vinyl and well, I don’t know. That’s the honest answer. If it does become available on vinyl it’ll be further down the road (aka probably at the end of the UFTG Project).

If you couldn’t join us for the live EP listening party last week you missed out on a great time. It was a great time because of the people who showed up and not because of anything myself or Greg did. We can’t thank you enough for being a part of this crazy experiment.

Anyway, here’s the new EP for your listening pleasure. Please share the love with your friends!

Also, drop Greg a line and tell him that his artwork is amazing.

Don’t forget! It releases on 7/28/2010.

Tomorrow (Tuesday 7/13/2010) at 9 PM EST we’ll be doing the podcast LIVE over uStream and will be discussing our favorite albums so far of this year. Here’s the deal though: we want you to be on the show. So, choose your three favorite records of the year so far and hit us up on skype and we’ll have you on the podcast.

Please join us and tell your friends. Thanks!

ALL OF THESE SHOWS WILL BE FREE! Did you hear that? FREE.

I’ll also be joined by some great local bands and artists. I’m very excited about this and grateful to the Bottletree for letting me do this. We’re going to have a great time so come out, grab a beer, bring your friends, and enjoy the music.
