white hot snot


10/15/2008

GOOD wednesday to you %USERNAME% : hope you're well. you're not still hanging out with old whats-his-name are you? alright, cool. he was ridiculous.

ANYWAY, it seems we've seen the light at the end of the long tunnel and, turns out, it's the bright lights of the Arena Rock Recording Company, a label that's released many bands that you, %USERNAME%, really love, now including the Life and Times. we're so stoked to be moving forward with this whole thing and are ready to bring our filthy grindcore to the masses via Arena Rock.

AND because, of the glacially-paced machinations of the "biz" and the time it takes to set up a record in said biz, it'll unfortunately be after the new year before Tragic Boogie can dance on your soul. i know, me too. in fact, more than you, trust me. we're just so stoked to be getting on with it. i'll have much more info as we get more info, and i'll pass it along to you in clever and dry-witted mass---uh, i mean personal mailings like this one.

IN the meantime, please peep these foot-functions and make every effort to attend. all in attendance will be required to purchase at least $300 worth of merch from us and to bring 35 friends along, (merch purch requirements apply to friends too). it's the cost of rock! new Magician vinyls, Lights shirts, and DVDs. go tell it on the mountain.
