Whew, a few big things on the horizon to talk about:
* We just confirmed with Davila 666 for a show at the Earl on March 5th, if you haven't heard these guys, they are from Puerto Rico and will tear your face off! Also our pals in The Barreracudas will be playing!
* Following this we'll be leaving on a tour leading to SXSW, but first we'll be visting some of our favorite places to play like Memphis, Las Vegas, Los Angeles, and Las Cruces! We have some pretty rad SXSW shows and parties lined up too that we'll be announcing very soon....
* Our show with Ted Leo and Gentleman Jesse has been postponed, the reschedule date for Ted's tour will be up soon, we'll let you know as soon as we do!
* Lastly, The Young Fates played their second show last night at the Dashboard Third Exhibition for the Arts! It featured a new line up Dan Wakefield (Ominous Castle), Philip Frobos (Carnivores), Emily Kempf (The Back Pockets), and Frankie Broyles (Balkans). Expect to hear of more shows announced and mp3s to come of this sideshow wonder in 2011.
