Showz and such

Another month is about half-way through so it's time to hit the road to play some shows! Graph will be hitting the road with our good friends in Pile for a 3-day-4-show no-sleep fest starting on Thursday. We will be playing Winooski, VT; Kittery, ME; Peterborough, NH; and Allston, MA. The Peterborough and Allston shows are the same day as our friends in Ugh God and Fat History Month are coming home from a month on the road. Allston should be a total basement shit-show with fun times had by all.

Graph/Pile August Funfest Mid-Weekend of Doom 2011:

8/18 - Winooski, VT w/ Pile & Spirit Animal @ The Monkey House
8/19 - Kittery, ME w/ Pile, Ms. Olivia Kennett & more
8/20 (early show) - Peterborough, NH w/Pile, Dave Kontak, & So Is The Tongue @ The Toadstool

Graph also has some other shows coming up in and around the Northampton, MA homebase:

8/26 - Florence, MA w/Grass Is Green, BEEK, & 2 Inch Astronaut @ The Puppy Mill
9/4 - Northampton, MA w/Fat History Month @ Feeding Tube Records

There is more wonderful stuff in the works so I will make sure to keep you posted as I find out new and intriguing ways to kill myself with music and traveling.

Ponds has been giving our new guitar player Eric a run for his money by booking as many shows as we can squeeze in. We have a series of shows coming up in September that we are elated about. We are playing a wonderful show at the Flywheel in Easthampton, MA with the mighty Bubonic Bear from Philly and the absolutely bombastic Holy Dirt who hail from the desolate wastelands of Deleware. We are very excited to hit the stage with such sterling bands who are traveling from the Mid-Atlantic region of the US to help lay waste to Western, MA with us. We will also be hitting the stage again with our wonderful friends Black Norse up in the lovely land of Portsmouth, NH the day before that show. 9 days after those shows we are slated to play with a beautiful duo who refer to themselves as Rebel Base. They hail from Greenfield, MA and play straight-up awesome, loud rock 'n' roll. We are very much looking forward to sharing the stage with them in Northampton, MA. We are also planning something special as it is the 10th anniversary of the September 11th attacks.

9/1 - Portsmouth, NH w/Black Norse, & others @ The Red Door
9/2 - Easthampton, MA w/Bubonic Bear, Holy Dirt, & 1 more TBA @ The Flywheel
9/11 - Northampton, MA w/Rebel Base, & more @ The Elevens

I think that's it for now kind readers; I will update this again when I have more concrete information about times, prices, and locations. Thanks much for reading.

Quote Of The Day

"We on Earth have just awakened to the great oceans of space and time from which we have emerged. We are the legacy of 15 billion years of cosmic evolution. We have a choice: We can enhance life and come to know the universe that made us, or we can squander our 15 billion-year heritage in meaningless self-destruction. What happens in the first second of the next cosmic year depends on what we do, here and now, with our intelligence and our knowledge of the cosmos."

Carl Sagan
