| stuff is finally starting to take off for us. we did an interview with the town talk today. it turned into a vulger affair, so i'm not sure what's gonna be printed. our label (jacksmack) just sent us some cash to go record a new demo. we will be in the studio wednesday and thursday. jacksmack is booking a summer tour for us and article11. (articleeleven.com) it's gonna be for two months, starting at the beginning of june. it starts in D.C. and ends here. i don't know how much of the tour we will be playing. (we have to find a fill in for gabe, cause he can only play 2 weeks at a time. that's what happens when you have bills and a job.) oh yeah, we have a new website with our own domain name. www.revengeofdft.com i still say that this one has more heart, but oh well. see you soon, -Ben 02/21/05 not too much going on at Camp DFT. we are putting together our press kit, and practicing. we are now "officially" on JackSmack Records. we're getting ready to start booking our summer tour. we should also have merchandise soon, so let me know if you want anything specific. i think that we will soon be playing a show in Alexandria with the fucking huh and saddlefish. if anybody wants us to play anywhere (and i do mean anywhere) just ask! there aren't any places to play in alexandria, so we'll take what we can get. hope to here from you (today!) -Ben 01/29/05 we are going into the studio next week. i think that we are recording 3 or 4 new songs. this recording will sound better than our last one. (we really rushed that one.) we are trying to finalize contract negotiations with jacksmack, so we should be "officially" signed pretty soon. that will mean that we'll finally have some merchandise. (t-shirts, stickers, etc.) if anyone is interested in checking out the label's website- www.jacksmackrecords.com there it is. one more thing, thanks to bj from olivers hog leg for letting us play at his house after the cops (once again) shut us down after driving like 3 hours (that's including stopping every 15 minutes for alfred to either piss, get another beer, or both.) to play in sulphur. p.s. gabe, excuse my sentence strucure. -Ben 12/11/04 __________________________________________________________ old news __________________________________________________________ Hello to all our fans, all our beautiful, beautiful fellow children of God!! please excuse the lack of updates, but dial-up is a real bitch. (yeah, i'm poor, i mean, i am hardcore, if you're not, then find the door.) anyway, we're working real hard on a whole new set. (i think we have like 6 new songs) hopefully we'll record them soon. (anybody got about 100 bucks to spare?) they blow our old shit away. so, i expect to see at least 60 of your smiling faces at sam goody on the 17th to see us fuck that piece of shit music store up! well that's all for now. -Ben 09/09/04 we had a good show at sam goody's, even though the toy cops shut us down. that's just part of the game. we're use to it. we're playing tomorrow night at cheryl's, so we should get to play a full set. i think we took some good pictures at sam goody's, so i will upload them after i get them developed. till then, i remain, -Ben 09/17/04 if you've been here before, you've noticed that the site has been updated. i think it's starting to look like an actual web site. so check everything out, and let us know what you think. anyway, we played in kaplan this weekend at article 11's record release party. those kaplan kids know how to get down! after our set, Dan Redman from jacksmack records asked us if we wanted to sign to their label. that means a full-length cd, a tour, merchandise, and shit loads of money!! (well, except for the shitloads of money) we haven't got the contract, yet, so we don't exactly know all the details. if everything is good, we'll be signed, and if not, we're gonna hold out for something better. -Ben 09/28/04 |
