We’re rewinding to 1999 with & Bloomington Fest today. Previously unreleased footage just went up on YouTube, and surprise: we dropped “Nothing New” and “So This Is How It Is” on Bandcamp for you campheads. Do with that info what you will.

Apparently we have been depriving the artist roster of the appropriate amount of syrup. Here’s a non-sequitur that did not make the initial cut. Part 2 coming soon.

3. To The Stars - Jobber
4. Welcome To My Blue Sky - Momma

Caught Fight Dice in Chicago over the weekend. Snagged one of only two existing Fight Dice classroom packs from their cards in the AudioTrade Collectible Cardboard Milwaukee band series.

This one is headed to PSA for grading, but you can grab a pack of AudioTrade cards at Lilliput Records in Milwaukee. Fingers crossed you get your favorite member of Fight Dice.

Also snagged some of their new stickers. Next few folks who order the limited random colored vinyl LP of their debut album ‘Total Party Kill’ from our Bandcamp or Shopify pages will get one too!
