February 3, 2009 Our Apologies!
To our fans
Like everyone else, we were disappointed by the disruption of our Tupelo show on the 30th by an overflow of water into the room from the kitchen, as we are now told. Needless to say, this event, coming in the middle of Black Train, was a surprise to everyone, and though everyone hated to end the show, it was the right call, given the uncertainty of what was happening at that point.
We regret that the announcement was made from the stage at our show at Tupelo Music Hall that the pipes had backed-up and sewage was filling the room... We weren't fully aware of the plumbing issue.The plumbing issue was caused by a kitchen sink being backed-up not by any backflow of raw sewage. The good news is there was never any health risk to any of the people who purchased tickets for this show. As it turns out, there was just a lot of water to be cleaned up.
We want to thank our fans for the good natured and graceful way they handled the abrupt end of a much-anticipated show; this is no surprise, because we have the best supporters on the planet. Please know that we're thinking about a way to make this up to you. In the meanwhile, kindly accept our regrets for the ways things turned out."

December 26, 2008 LA Recording Sessions
We recently flew out to Los Angeles to record a little demo for a sample of what will be on the next record. We had the pleasure of working with a great producer, Mike Daly, (Plain White T's, Grace Potter and the Nocturnals, Donavon Frankenreiter) who was also in the band Whiskey Town with Ryan Adams. Also our engineer out there, Travis Huff (Fall out Boy, Lil Jon, Yellowcard) is the man and was blowing our minds with his skills. This might have been one of the most fun recording sessions we have ever had. We recorded three new tunes which have potential to be on the next record "I Do Believe", "Reactor" and "Hard Enough To Break". Needless to say we are psyched with the way these are turning out.
We got to record in the pimpest studio we have ever seen, a place called Glenwood Studios, (which looks more like a day spa then it does a recording studio, at least on the outside…). The sounds we were getting out of this place and their sick vintage gear pumped us up quite a bit and the caliber of people we were working with was incredible.
(Mike and Travis in the control room at Glenwood)
We also got to hang out at some pretty cool places after the sessions, for example this one place the Chateau Marmont is where CSNY, The Eagles, Jerry Garcia and all the old rock stars used to stay when they were in town, and from the looks of it, it was still the place to be. When we were there we ran into Christopher Loyd, Kanye West, Jason Segel, Kim Kardashian and more of the like. Good times.
Flying out in an epic ice storm and flying into Boston during a blizzard after a 14 hour delay in Dallas was pretty nerve wracking but the band, and almost equally important our gear, is back safe and we are ready to crush some shows back on the east coast. We are pumped to be back in town and hope to see all you sexy people at some shows soon.
