8/20/04 - Thanks to everyone who came out to our last show and to all the bands that played. You guys made it a great show to end on, with everyone going crazy, dancing, singing along... we loved it. Thanks to all who have supported us the last couple years, and especially to the ones who have stuck with us since the hamburger days. It's been fun. Thank you.

Updated by Jake
7/29/04 - Yo... ok, so our final show will be Friday, August the 13th at Liquid Recordz in Cornelius with A Closing Skyline, Ten Missing Days, The Hotness (used to be called The Residence), and Drive By Desire. We're planning on getting some new t-shirts and stickers made for the show... so hopefully we can pull that off in time. Keep checking back here for more info as it becomes available... spread the word, ok? I'll leave you guys with these words of wisdom from Gordon: "think of this, and dont wonder how it came up today in my life 'hosey donut.'"

Updated by Jake
7/19/04 - To the people who asked on the guestbook, yes we are breaking up, but we are playing 1 last show. We're planning on having the show sometime in August at either Tremont or Liquid Recordz. Keep checking back here for upcoming information.

Updated by Jake
3/26/04 - We're not going to be able to play the fundraiser at East Lincoln today. We're real sorry for the last minute cancellations of these last couple shows... we've been having some bad luck lately.

Updated by Jake
3/21/04 -
We are not going to be able to play the show today at Neighborhood Theatre, due to Will losing his voice. Fuck. Sorry to anyone who was planning on coming to see us.

Updated by Jake
3/19/04 - Ok, look. We got 2 shows this weekend. First one on Saturday at Liquid Recordz and then on Sunday at the Neighborhood Theatre. The show at Liquid is their 1 year anniversary, and there's gonna be a lot of bands there... starting at 2pm and going until 12am. Pretty sure we play last, so we'll be playing around 10 or 11 or something? Not too sure, but come out and celebrate Liquid's 1 year anniversary, it'll be righteous. Mr. Kyle Whisenant will be filling in for me again. He's a chick magnet. As some of you may or may not know, Will plays soccer for Davidson... he has a couple out-of-town games on Saturday before the show, so let's see if he shows up to the show still wearing his shin-guards and cleats... and that's all. No other articles of clothing, just his shin-guards and cleats. THAT would be gnarly. I added several more pictures to the pics page, so look at them. Also added another MP3 to our MP3 pages... it's for the song "Naked." Listen to it. Ok, that's my cue to put an end to this sorry excuse for an update. But first! Check this shit out: View the first Divisional Media trailer video for the upcoming CD/DVD comp here. Catch ya later.

2/21/04 - Thanks to everyone who came out to the show last night, it was a lot of fun. I wish I could've been able to play... but Kyle did a great job filling in for me. I've said it once, and I'll say it again... he rules.
Thanks again to Scapegoat for putting us on their CD release, those guys rule, and so does their new CD. Some news... The show scheduled for March 6th at Avondale Church has been cancelled due to renovations they're doing. I found out I have to get surgery on my wrist next week, so that sucks. We're still working on getting new t-shirts and all that stuff, so hopefully we'll get that done soon. I think that's all for now, later.

Updated by Jake with 1 1/2 hands
2/7/04 - I have some good news... we WILL be playing Scapegoat's CD release show on Feb. 20th at Tremont, and I also saved a bunch of money on my car insurance by switching to Geico. I know you're probably wondering how we're gonna be able to play, since I broke my wrist and everything. I'll tell you how... Kyle Whisenant (bassist from the band Verus) will be filling in for me. Kyle rules and we're glad to have him play with us. Our new CD Emphasis is available now... I'll copy and paste what I have from below on how to get one: If you'd like to buy one, then contact one of us and let us know or mail $8 plus $1.50 shipping and handling (WITH YOUR MAILING ADDRESS) to 15908 Davidson Concord Road Davidson, NC 28036. Checks and well concealed cash only, palease. The CD will be available at Liquid Recordz in Cornelius as well. My wrist is still stupid. PAYCE!

Updated by Jake with 1 hand
2/3/04 - Hi. Got some news for you people. First, let's go with the news that sucks... this past weekend I broke my left wrist while I was snowboarding, which means we won't be able to play any shows for the next 6 weeks or so (there's a chance we'll still be able to play the Avondale show on March 6th, we'll let you know). It couldn't have happened at a worse time... our plans for a CD release show are no longer, although we will plan on having a show to celebrate the release of our CD as soon as we can play shows again. Obviously, we are not gonna be able to play the show this Friday at Black Cat Burrito's in Boone, and Scapegoat recently asked us to play at their CD release show on Feb. 20th, but we had to decline... but we really appreciate them asking us; those guys put on an insane show... everyone go check them out Feb. 20th at Tremont and buy their CD. Now for the cool news: our CD Emphasis is finally done and on sale now for $8. If you'd like to buy one, then contact one of us and let us know or mail $8 plus $1.50 shipping and handling (WITH YOUR MAILING ADDRESS) to 15908 Davidson Concord Road Davidson, NC 28036. Checks and well concealed cash only, palease. The CD will be available at Liquid Recordz in Cornelius as well. During this down time, we're going to be designing stickers and new T-shirts, which hopefully will be out by the next show. I think that's all. I typed this all with 1 hand.

1/23/04 - Thanks to everyone who came out to our last couple shows, you guys rule. New pictures section up, so if any of you want to check out how friggin' ugly we are, go right ahead (Will is the ugliest). I wonder how many times I've said this next statement: "the CD should be out soon." Probably about 7,820 times... but this time it really should be out soon. Check back here for updates on that and for news on a CD release show and what not. The radical dudes at Divisional Media have some cool shit planned for the Divisional Media compilation... check www.divisionalmedia.com for all that info. Alright folks, I'm so gonna leave now... so I kissed him upside the cranium with an aluminum baseball bat.

12/24/03 - Old Fashioned would like to wish everyone a very happy, fun, safe, gnarly, cool holidays. Show on January 3rd, mind you... see you all there, right? Good. Keep the change, ya filthy animal... and a Happy New Year.

11/22/03 - Well, hello all. Just a reminder that we're playing tonight at Liquid Recordz in Cornelius. We're playing with Yamaha Sexxx (our favorite band that we desperately want to be friends with) and The Beer Helmets, who simply rule. Today is also Jason's birthday... he turns 4 years old! Yay for Jason... that little kid of a drummer. I also think I should mention that my birthday is tomorrow, so send me like 73,289 presents... good ones, please. ALSO, THE BEST NEWS OF ALL... one of the best TV shows ever, and definitely the funniest TV show ever... Family Guy may be returning to FOX in 2005 due to the huge sales of the series DVDs. I hope to see a lot of you tomorrow night... until then, bye bye. Face To Face - R.I.P.

10/29/03 - Hey folks, we have finished the audio portion of our album. Today I spent a full day at Studio B Mastering here in Charlotte and had our mixes cleaned up and beautified by the talented Dave Harris (www.studiobmastering.com). Have you ever heard music through $60,000 speakers? Well I did today and it's unreal. Next week we are going to finish up all the album artwork and hopefully have the CD off to the presses by the second week of November. Hopefully. Stay tuned, bastards.

Updated by Jake
10/25/03 - What it is everyone... seriously what it is? Annnnyway, we have a show tonight at Tremont, so go there and attend. Doors open at 6pm, and the show starts at 6:30pm. The show benefits the "Rockers Against Drunk Driving" awareness program. Chris writes erotic novels for children.

10/16/03 - Well, hello there you cows. New show has been added... check it out. We are wrapping up the recording process, and it shouldn't be too much longer before we release this thing, so be patient. Did you guys know that in 600 C.E., for some old queen's birthday, 60,000 ninjas wailed on their guitars and killed a country? It's true. That's it for me, but until next time, check out www.realultimatepower.net. BYE!
