Matt and Matthew hauled the ‘Shore van over to customs to get the repress of the Saxon Shore cds Four Months of Darkness, Be a Bright Blue, and Luck Will Not Save Us from a Jackpot of Nothing. I am getting up ultra early to drive Saxon Shore to the airport for their Japanese tour with Tristeza. Should be exciting for them. :::scott:::

Johnathon told me that there is going to be a children’s ballet performance re-enacting the images from Unwed Sailor’s The Marionette and the Music Box in Jackson, MS in April and May. I’ll post more details as soon as I find them out. Jakob has sent the final audio and artwork for the Isolation Years one-sided LP. Saxon Shore are flying to Japan on Friday morning. I volunteered to drive them to the airport. Little did I know they’d need to be there at 6am. :::scott:::

It was great to be in Brooklyn last night to see Saxon Shore. Keyes was in attendance and his brother’s band The Gritty MIDI band opened. It was just their fourth show and they sounded good, a bit on the upbeat synth pop/Factory Records vibe. Jeff Price made the trip up, too, which is always awesome and Matthew and I convinced him to join the btv fantasy baseball league. Nicole and her Jersey crowd made it in time for the show. The room was filled for the set at Union Pool and the sound was good. The late night ride home was a little brutal, especially when Ben Volta failed me and fell asleep. I promised I would make him look bad here. I’m getting ready for my trip to SXSW this week. I’ll be flying into Dallas, riding there with Bosque Brown, and staying with my friend Brian. I can’t wait to go. :::scott:::
