Hello Gents (and the Ladies you Gents tricked into coming here!),
Seeing as half of Shinobu is now playing the rold of Tom Cruise as The Last Samurai (and, oddly enough, neither of them is Matt), I am taking the helm here at PNP. I’m still kind of learning the ropes, though, so if there’s any problems please shoot me an email at mailorder@phatnphunky.com.
Also, if anybody is into books and shit, then please check out my new blog fortuitously titled: Books and Shit!
This weekend I went to SF and recorded some new songs by CALLING ALL MONSTERS, who are pretty much the best band ever. In a few weeks I’ll also be hitting the studio with CAST IRON SONGS, Nate Kavanaugh’s new project. Also, new Shinobu album in the works…? UH OH!
By the way, Calling All Monsters’ album “The Traps That Work Best” is available in the distro section of the mailorder page, so go get it! And, of course, don’t forget to buy the new Little Mercury album. Niiiiice.
Also, I think I fixed up the site setup so that anyone can comment on the blog. Let me know if it works.
So since I’ve been writing new songs, and now have a new line-up to play them with me, I figured it was time for a change. That change has come in the form of a new project name! My cronies and I will now be playing under the pseudonym “Cast Iron Songs”. We’ll be playing at Nickel City on June 20th, along with Arcade Rebellion, Monotonous K., The Last Stand, Of the Sun, and Room For A Ghost! That’s a slew of bands, and I’m not sure at the moment where we’ll be playing in the order, but details to come. Early June we’ll be recording some songs with Bob! The new era is here.
Well, well…it looks like ol’ Beef Nate is back on his feet again! Yessir, the times of not playing shows for long amounts of time are coming to a halt for this boy.
I’ll be playing the “Grand Fanali Graduation Gala” at Nickel City, Saturday May 24th. Show starts at 7pm, and it costs $5 with a $2 cover. Accompanying me on bass and drums will be my buddy Carlo and my bro Sean, respectively. Other bands playing are “Days Into Years”, and some others to be announced.
Will also be playing the upcoming 2-day Cuddle Show/None Shall Pass Premiere in July!
