A weekend off will do wonders for getting stuff done around the house, and being able to catch up on weekend activities that the average band person doesn't get to do. So, with the engines recharged, we're up and ready to head off into the great wide open and have a killer weekend! August always seems to be the month where there is some time off, and we get a chance to relax a little bit, so we'll ease back into this weekend with one night, and then go all crazy next weekend! We're heading downstairs to the Front Row Sports Tavern on Friday night, and it's been a while since we've been up there. We hope that you can all come out and put on your party hats for some fun in the coolest little spot in St. J!

The following weekend, we'll be all over the map. We're hitting whips on Friday the 22nd, the anchorage in Sunapee on the 23rd, and then finishing out the weekend at the Rollins Ride on Sunday afternoon with our friends Ground Cover opening up the show at 2pm. Check out www.rollinsride.com for information on this motorcycle ride for the fallen, in memory of Newport's Justin Rollins, who was killed in Iraq in 2007. The ride leaves Newport High School at 10:30 am, and returns to the Newport High School at 2pm for BBQ, and 2 bands for some entertainment in the sun (come on sun!). This is an event we did last year, and had a great time. We should be well rested since we're at the ANK the night before, and we may even hop on and go for the ride if it all works out! Check it out and come support the scholarship fund that they are raising money for.

That should cover us for a while, we're getting ready for fall, and still looking for the person to stand in Eric's shoes, so tell your bass player friends to give a healthy gig schedule and some greenbacks a chance. Fall's looking busy, and we're getting stoked up for it!
