Thanx to all that came to
the Parkside Tavern last
night! Thanx to Egokill
for kicking ass yet again
as well. Huge props to
Dave of G Force
Productions for making us
sound great! Also thanx to
Rich Marini, Courtney, and
anyone else who was taking
pictures, but more
importantly, thanx to
everyone that came out. We
saw a lot of people there
who've never seen Pinion
before, that's pretty
cool.
Hopefully over the next
few days we'll get photos
and maybe, if Chris' old
computer decides to work,
maybe we'll post some
video up as well.
Our next shindig on the
schedule is October 31st
at the Parkside Tavern
with Days of War and the
Laysan Rail. There's 2
more, just can't remember
them off the top of our
head. This will be a real
deal halloween show, we
are making costumes for
the show. That's right,
we're going to put effort
into it. Mostly because
we're really kids at
heart(ok, so Chris and
Dave are, I mean who runs
to the Ice Cream truck
anyway?) but we want to
have fun with this stuff,
so don't act like you're
too mature for it, go get
a costume and come out to
the show. I don't care if
you go as Crazy Newspaper
face, Buckwheat, or
Charles' funny rowdy Uncle
"Rambone", just get a
costume and come out.
Maybe we'll give prizes to
best costume? That's your
hint to get a costume!
Anyway, we're hoping to
get some stuff upstate
before the halloween show,
or maybe even a show in
Jersey, and November is
rumored to be absolutley
crazy, so keep an eye on
this page for more info on
when and where we'll be
next!

Oh and, we know we've said
it before, but we're
hoping to have the cd done
and readily available at
this show. We're going
back in the studio to
finish guitars on the
29th. Got to tell you,
it's sounding really
good.
Huge thanx to all the
people who came out to
both shows last weekend.
It was a killer trek and
it was awesome to run into
old friends and make some
new ones at the same time.
We're hoping to come back
to Monroe after the CD is
out. We might have a show
in Rockland for July,
otherwise we plan on
spending the entire month
mixing the cd (well...on
the weekends, we got day
jobs) because we so want
to get this done and out
for you!
Hey, Weasil here. Chris,
Leroy, asshole, or
whatever you want to call
me. Finished bass
yesterday for the cd.
Wowzas! Now I have more
time to concentrate on
purchasing fake neck
tattoos! It was a pretty
grueling process for me,
because, Hey I've never
been in anything that's
made it to the studio, but
somehow made it through
it. For you gear heads, I
did a majority of the
tracking on the Fender
American Deluxe Precision
bass, and only whipped out
the schecter for one song.
Everything was tracked
mic'd with a Shure Beta 52
for the lows and some
other mic (Gessler?) for
the highs, Gave it a nice
gritty sound. We also
tried out this little
magic trick for guitars
that i'm pretty sure
you'll be super impressed
with once we begin
tracking.
For those
wondering when we're
playing next right now the
only thing we have on tap
is 6/14 at Olives with
Blue Collar War, Egokill
and one more once we get
in touch with them. We're
hoping you all come out
for this one, we're trying
to make it a big one!
Don't quote me but we
might have an all ages
show in OC also in June,
and I know I'm also trying
to work on an OC show for
late summer, so that
should be cool.
Oh
yeah one more thing before
we go, you have to check
out this band Brock
Murdoch We caught them
at Olives last night, They
are amazing!
Oh and one last
thing, the past few weeks
we've been having
difficulty posting videos
on Ursession. Most of the
time we upload our videos
to youtube, rather than
re-up them, we try to just
link the youtube videos,
but Ursession doesn't
allow us to do that. But
if you really want to see
our studio videos and our
live footage, please visit
and subscribe to us on youtube.com/pin
ion211 if you subcribe
you can see the videos
before we even post them
anywhere.
