I am sure you have been sitting over there wondering, “What the hell has been going on with those Pensamplivox kids. I haven’t heard a peep out of them for a bit.” Well, we are so damn busy that I barely have time to write this and so I will give it to you in short bursts:

Century Rocket Building are working on mixes for the new 4-song EP. We went in last week to get some more work done when the tape machine at Reelsounds took a big analog crap. Once she’s fixed up nice, we’ll get back on it and post some tasty bits for you to hear.

*joesepi* has been going through some restructuring of its staff, now on an operational basis with the help Mr. James Ellis MacGregor temporarily on bass duties, and some local cats filling in on keyboards. We are still working through recent recordings with the plan of putting out an album in the Fall. We are also running the archive 4-track recordings of yesteryear through the super masterer machine for a 4CD Sack Set release, also looking like Fall. In the meantime, we are busting our ass in preparation for a possible upcoming show that could be sorta big.

Bearhawk has Killer Wails done and mastered; we are working on the graphics and then sending it off to the shipping plant. It sounds great and all will love it for sure.

Bookoos are mixing their recent recordings.

And Rang went in for a recording weekend a bit ago. I am told the end result rocks but have been deprived of knowing for sure.

A Vast Amount of Scientific Data (previously known as Dog Hospital Fragrance) has their first show on July 14, if you don’t count the wedding gigs they have lined up.

And Hesterman were on Chic-A-Go-Go. I was there and danced my ass off!

Ham and Egger is getting married and we will all make appearances: musical and otherwise.
