(very) Messy, Isn't It?

Bienvenidos al verano!

So we played a very fulfilling set at this year's Rainfest. A man named Josh Broome took this picture of what it looked like:


Thank you to all of our friendly friends up in the pacnorwest for helping us out. We know we have been touring on very old material so it was nice to still see so many of you still care about what we are doing. As has been promised numerous times, we are currently in the studio. Here is a quick little peek into what's been going on:


We are shooting for the record to be done in August and to come out officially in September. It will be 17 songs and about 35 minutes long and may or may not include a free shirt. We continue to look for new/awesome art, so send clever art-type things our way (wearedangers@gmail.com) if you think your fingers can hack it. We should also be doing some touring once the record is out and we stop boring everyone.

A quick note about current shirt/CD orders: all members of the DANGERS/Graf Orlock/Ghostlimb post office team will be out of the country from June 17 to July 17. Don't freak out if your order has not yet arrived. All orders were shipped today (June 17) for the past month. Sorry for the wait.

Will be listening to Archers of Loaf on the plane today.

Why didn't you kill yourself today?

Total Chaos

So, the show in Santa Cruz has been canceled. Turns out Cafe Pergolesi was into aiding the federales in the AETA cases. Lameski. None of the bands involved thought it was good and right to play at that venue given those circumstances. Instead, we have lined up the following show in Fresno, CA:

Saturday May 16 @ the CYC
w/ Lewd Acts, Graf Orlock (record release!), and TOTAL CHAOS.
901 F Street
Fresno, CA 93706

"Patriotic Shock" used to be on heavy rotation in my bedroom in 8th grade and I can't say I'm anything less than very over-the-top excited to be playing a show with them. Don't think they'll give two shits about our little bands invading their show, but I'll be up front railing against Nazis nonetheless.

Also playing this show, so don't forget:

Friday May 15 @ The Che Cafe in San Diego
w/ Lewd Acts and Graf Orlock (record release!)

We are halfway done with recording. "Under the Affluence" sounds pretty good. "God vs. Godmother" is coming along. Still need to get the intro to "Bottom of the 9th Ward" down. I've made some crappy video footage of the shenanigans and might post that stuff soon.

Reno was radsick. Thank you very much to Megan, Roxy, and Suzie. And DCOI. No thanks to the snow.

Berkeley was dopesick. Thank you to Devon and Conquest For Death.

Fascinated by these homes.

Earthangeles

Back home. Very well-spent weekend. Santa Cruz. Benefit for AETA2 and AETA4. Loud music, merch on the floor, so many boys still these days. Saw Run With The Hunted finally. Stickers from Swampdonkey! Ate a jalepeno burger-type-thing at Saturn Cafe. Slept at Mandy/Adrian's house with Braveyoung and saw semi-nudes on the wall. Woke up, ate a delicious sandwich from Nob Hill Grocery, drove, saw where James Dean died, drove more, was depressed by Barstow, had to tinker with the van's starter there, kept driving, arrived at Yayo's Tacos. Met Tracy and Alex, ate delicious tofu tacos, helped moved some tables and chairs, set up merch. Watched bands, got nose upset with foot-stench of lead singer. Played music. Wondered if kids there could do anything positive to change things, doubted, hoped. Loaded van, tried to start it, bemoaned the fully-fucked starter. Drove around with Alex to buy new starter parts. Stayed well out of the way while Justin, Adam, and Tim fixed the car. Experienced The Raft while the fixing was occurring. Enjoyed the great earthangel-ness of Miguel, the Yayo's Taco employee that was the man who was really responsible for getting the van fixed. Started the van. Drove awhile. Got tired. Let Tim drive the rest of the way. Went to bed in the early morning.

Thank you to those that helped, appreciated, questioned.

More live appearances in the works. Including new shows in San Diego and Reno! Those listed below to the right. A flyer, too:


Drums begin tracking on Friday. Finally.

Cocaine Tacos in Las Vegas

The Las Vegas show now has a home at a venue/taqueria that calls itself Yayo Tacos. A full-blown report will follow our visit. Get it? Until then, here is the wonderful flier as imagined by the show's tireless curator, Tracy Lopez:


As you can see, our cohorts in Ghostlimb will be sacrificing their phalangal epidermis as well. Those other bands remain a mystery to me for now, but the names invoke a midnight ravage of sorts that sounds enticing.

Please keep in mind the upcoming Santa Cruz show and the upcoming 924 Gilman show we will be playing. Further live performances will accompany cities such as San Francisco, Reno, and Sacramento with some luck. We'll be posting some recording updates soon as well.

This was the feeling we were having but weren't diligent enough to keep tabs on. You can't expect too much from a man with so many large backs to scratch.

With all due respect,
Al / DANGERS
