Our first album Songs About Girls & Outer Space was released fifteen years ago today. We were on the way to play a show in Raleigh NC. The album charted on what was then the CMJ 200 and the song 'Silver State' got a film placement. The band made enough money to each buy their own small microwave.

apparently there is a university crazy enough to have made one of the Sleep-ins a vice chancellor

one thing I did almost completely throughout my career as a band-former is not hesitate to get some kind of gig booked as soon as there were three or more people in the same room making something that sounded like music play as many gigs as you can because that's how you get better at playing gigs

I don't know who needs to hear this but you're allowed to be a fan of your own work

I'm also in a band, we've been working on an album (for 15 years) that will be released later this year. We've been successful on paper, you can read about it on Wikipedia if you want. The band is the Sleep-ins - @sleep-ins.bsky.social Just set up on Pixelfed - pixelfed.social/sleepins Thanks

#weirdsessions I was in Sydney working with my friend Mike Johnson, AKA kingsizemidget, on his second album. We had a track that needed a specific kind of trumpet: drunken trumpet. So I called a friend of mine who was a trumpet player I thought might work and asked him to come up to the studio.

Since we're recording an album, I'm going to talk about recording albums. And when I do, since many if not all of the recording sessions have been weird, I'm going to use #WeirdSessions.

Hate Club 1488 is the name of the group that marched through Columbus, Ohio are led by former Blood Tribe/GDL member Anthony Altick, aka Combat Carl. He murdered a black man in 2015. This is not anti-semitism alone it’s about eradicating anyone that is opposed to a white ethnostate. 🧵 below

I'm also a member of a band called the Sleep-ins (@sleep-ins.bsky.social). A thing we're trying to do amidst the increasing chaos is record another album.

if there's one thing I've learned about social media, it's that positive messages work best - even for the haters, the losers, and the dumbasses
