Minus the Bear Announces Fall Tour Dates

Everyone’s favorite band Minus the Bear is hitting the road yet again, this time touring with The Annuals. Now I really can’t say anything about MTB that hasn’t already been said. They are truly innovative. Usually when you say “there’s no on out there that sounds like (insert innovative band here)” the band is a little hard to listen to the first couple of times through, but MTB is truly different. Everyone can find something to love about them no matter what style of music you prefer. Plus MTB live is quite the spectacle. Guitarist Dave Knutson alone is worth the price of admission. From his impeccably clean toned tapping technique to his on the fly sampling he can do it all. But enough oodling here are the dates:

You met me at a very strange time in my life.

Now Playing: The Pixies – Where is My Mind

So this song just cam on my iTunes so I had to post this. I hope you all can make the connection. If not, I won’t be mad at you, just disapointed.

The First Post

So here comes the inevitable first post. What can I say. It’s about 12:30 and I am pretty much wiped out from the week. Packing 5 days of work into 4 days isn’t too fun, but I’m sure a Friday off will make everything better. A nice sunny day, a couple of beers, and maybe a trip to the local pool. Unfortunately my day of endless possibility is severely cut down due to the fact that I live in Wisconsin. But don’t worry about me. I’ll find a way to get by. I’ll probably start getting my post on in the next few days with some things that matter. Now that I think of this, if you are still reading this I apologize for just wasted a nice little piece of time. I would recommend not reading the rest of this blog. I don’t plan on saying anything that holds any importance. In fact I should end it right here. I would say goodbye, but at this early stage of my blogging career I don’t think anyone is actually reading this.

Good Night
