This was taken at last night’s Mercury Lounge show by Lana Winter! It was most definitely too much fun! Big thanks to Black Box Revelation! Next pILLOW live stop? Gibson Showroom, NYC June 1st!
Not too surprised but it’s more like a “lowest of low” or “last straw” situation. REGARDLESS of your opinion of him or his presidency, Obama finally put his support of gay marriage on blast! This is again a pretty historic moment and day, especially after the NC situation. However, probably the worst excuse for a ‘news’ station, FOX twists this with the stupid, BIASED, childish headline “Obama Flip Flops, Declares War On Marriage.” I don’t really expect anything of substance or close to fairness with this channel (neither do a large number of conservatives actually) and I understand it has a “reality tv” type of quality which can be humorous at times, but this is really a shame (almost as low as Hannity’s anti-Trayvon mission but I spoke about that previously). It really shouldn’t be a conservative vs. liberal issue in my opinion. This is about the rights of PEOPLE, point blank. If it’s not for you then don’t get married to a gay person but why would you want to censor the rights of other PEOPLE? Live your own life and stop trying to keep enforcing these 1864 laws against human beings. Hell the people that support the views of this channel probably wouldn’t have invited me over for dinner 30 years ago or want me to get married to ANYONE (you know where I’m going with this obviously)! I can’t see how anyone can reach for some kind of “decent reason” why FOX Nation is a credible source of unbiased, non racist, non sexist, non homophobic news. I wrote a shorter version of this on my personal page and hesitated putting this on the band page due to the political nature and/or the risk of alienating fans. Then I realized, we don’t want to have anything to do with racist, sexist or homophobic people anyway! So there you go! Sorry, yes I said it with my liberal and conservative point of view! Have a great hump day and celebrate intelligent freedom of expression!!!
It’s here! The official video for “Blipsters & Buppies”, our first single from our EP Meltdown (you should have that by now right? No? Go to iTunes or something and buy it damnit!!!). Mika Kenyah of Sugar & Spikes fame directed and Bandit23 edited the thing! We’re super proud of the result and you will be too.
Special thanks to our Kickstarter contributors who made this all possible, Stephanie Castillo for being an awesome star, Cake Shop for providing a venue for Kelsey to smash guitars and all the amazing people in the shoot.

Hey there! So Sunday night I was going back and forth between Twitter and Facebook (as well as texting) during the Grammy show. I’m not a huge Grammy or award show freak but it’s fun, light entertainment that I don’t take to seriously. I was very proud that Adele and Foo Fighters won the most awards so there’s hope! Plus, Dave gave the best speech of the night ,represented a SLAYER shirt and even mixed it up with Deadmau5! Also proud that Skrillex and Bon Iver got their props too.
