Running Jokes and Holiday Shows

Season's Greetings, all!

I hope that everyone had a lovely Thanksgiving filled with both wonderful and dysfunctional family moments (because, what are the holidays without a few reminders that we all love those around us, no matter how imperfect they are!).

We are back on the road for a select few dates before Christmas, including a bill with one of our favorite bands, Ours! It promises to be a great show. That will be followed by a special Hometown Headlining Christmas Show @ Stubb's on December 19th; not to give anything away, but, you might hear a Sounds Under Radio Christmas Carol exclusive that night...so make sure to come out and celebrate with us!!

We'll also be hitting Dallas, San Antonio, Denton, Corpus Christi, Monroe (LA), and San Antonio once again before Santa jumps on his sleigh.

So, we have this running joke in the band...when, after a couple of days of being out, road fatigue sets in, all of us have moments when we tend to forget where we are, where we're going to, when we're playing, etc... So, for example, when Bradley asks Lang "ummm, where are we playing tonight?", the answer, unequivocally, is always "It's Wednesday, we're heading to Chicago, and we're opening". Even if we're in Pennsylvania. It's meant to incentivize band members to read their daily sheets (that contain all this info), but, has turned into a fantastic way to rib your colleagues in their moments of tour vertigo.

Hope to see everyone in the next couple of weeks to wish you all a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year in person!
