We made it home yesterday on fumes... from Athens. The January tour was incredibly hard. We encountered snow and dwindling club attendance everywhere. But we are still hopeful a lot of sound guys liked us and that is encouraging.
one tour highlight:
Johnny Hickman of the band Cracker came to our show in Athens and bought a CD and vinyl and was really complimentary of the band. He was a really down to earth nice dude.
We have a short run coming up in March and then a Midwest run coming up in april. Also i will be touring acoustic in February under the aka Spider + Octopus.
A new album is just about ready for studio work. Looks like a great year for touring and stuff. Thanks for coming to shows, listening to us or just reading the blog. Feel free to write us anytime.

is the alter ego p-cola or vice versa.
The day finally has come that we oust the W's and their crooks. The future looks like it may arrive now.
We're in Cedar Falls today, we played a radio show yesterday. Today we will be fixing some stuff on the trailer and take the day off... Wednesday we'll be at Mohawk Place in Buffalo.
P-cola we'll be home soon...
We played and played and played. We're tight, we stink, we're hungry, we're tired. Touring is so surreal. We're in Minneapolis today, we played with the Get Rites and Josh Harty our north Mid-West label mates. We'll be playing again with them this evening in Madison.
Des Moines was probably the scariest moment on this whole trip. We were loading out in - degree weather and we almost froze to death. But on a side note we met the Colour Music in the parking lot in the snow they were blocking the drive way.
St Louis was a bust, we played at the strangest club called the way out club, they treated us really well. We also saw some old friends there...
Lovely Wichita treated us well as always, our friend Kali put us up for the evening, we hung out with her dogs and black kitty. We played Kirby's Beerstore under new management. New Management has done a great job only improving the place.
We're driving through snow looking forward to the radio show in Cedar Falls on Monday.
we played with jenny wood and her band last night at the springwater. very good show. we're on our way to st louis today its getting very cold. we're starting to climb into the brutal north winter. fortunately the band is starting to play well.
12 days 12 shows. i was pretty run down when we arrived in asheville. we played a last minute show at the firestorm cafe. we played really well, i can hear the band hitting its stride. the people at the firestorm were really nice.
tonight we drive to johnson city, then nashville. its starting to get cold as well, which is pretty intimidating for florida boys.
Birmingham was k... With that said i've learned a few new things about H. Faron Ainley:
- he have flaky toes
- he's a baller, not a folder
- he don't snore, apparently i do
We're on our way to Montgomery to the Head on the Door, should be great time, always has been
