Mantis Teaser!

"We were flipping around the dial looking for a new cover to try out for NYE, but all we could find on the air was Mantis. Bizarre."

And we're back...

Sorry for the long delay between posts.  We've all taken these last few weeks to rest up and charge the batteries for this busy October run that is now officially upon us.  Our days have been occupied with a variety of activities from side projects and album work to good old R&R.  Kris and Jake both found themselves in the studio working on separate projects with old friends and former band mates. Brendan and Ryan hit the road for a few days for a couple of Omega Moos shows.  Joel (and Kris for that matter) spent some time in sunny California, mainly at Muscle Beach wailing on their pecs.  And Andy was busy biting his nails watching his beloved White Sox nudge their way into the post season. 

I have been plugging away in the studio trying to put the finishing touches on our upcoming studio release.  There will be a ton of info forthcoming shortly but we are very excited about our latest effort.  It has been a long time coming as we've allocated chunks of time to work on it between our hectic touring schedule.  But we feel confidant that this one will have been worth the wait.  Stay tuned for all the album banter you could possibly want coming soon!

Tonight we are finally back in Kalamazoo, MI after a long hiatus.  And while you can be sure that Ryan Stasik will be on his game tonight as he returns to his beloved hometown, I suspect another Stasik will be stealing the show.  Marsha Stasik, Ryan's mother, will be warming up the crowd tonight with a little stand up comedy to kick things off.  I can assure you that if it's anything like her usual hysteric (and often quite naughty) antics, we are all in for a treat.  Not everyday does your mom get the chance to open for the band. 

Looking forward to seeing all of you good peeps on both coasts...

It's on.

 

This definitely the closest we've ever ‘been to fine'
