Crunch Time. Fuck.

We are super busy & the laptop I am writing this on is very tiny. Expect mega blog posts in the next couple weeks. It's all happening. Seriously. I couldn't sleep last night. I feel crazy. Ah. For now here's some painting by Steve Believe. If you want to purchase any of these to help fund a cross Canada tour send an email to stevo2404@hotmail.com and name your price.

Love,

Steve.

Hi, How Are You?

I have a personal-ish blog where I post things I do to distract myself from everything, or something.

New Zine By Sonny Bone(r)s.

Nineties Babies is stoked to release their second poetry collection. This time it's by Sonny Bones. It's called  "Hello.  We're All Going to Die Someday" and it's incredible. Unlike some poetry zines I've read where you need to pace yourself, I am able to sit down and read this zine beginning to end. I love it. You can order one from us here ($2-5), or track down an awkward blue haired kid mindlessly wandering the north end of Halifax late at night.

Busy Simliar to the Way in Which Beavers are Busy.

I haven't posted in a while. I assure you I am busy and not lazy.

Two Kids Running Away played their last show. Go here to read a incredibly personal account of the evening.

Stagnant Stars are currently recording their full length "Mumble Like You Mean It". Two songs are completely finished.

Mistake Makers have five songs recorded and Jawsh C. is working on mastering them.
They are also booking a tour to Southern Ontario for early March.

Taylor Doyle and Travesty's split record is finished. The finishing touches are being put on the artwork (By Steve Believe).

The Rumble Strips have gone electric and are currently recording songs for their cassette release. Two songs are complete, and once again Jawsh is working on the mixing and mastering. Lookout for some unique DIY packaging.

On top of all of this, Jawsh Carson is recording a solo album entitled "Killjoy" to be released on cassette.

Rosie Toes has been making DIY skirts out of vintage dress shirts that will be available for purchase online soon, along with paintings by Steve Believe. This is likely going to eventually include a wide variety of handmade art and crafts.

I am excited! seriously fucking excited. All records/art/crafts will be posted here in the coming days once they reach completion. They will also be made available for mail orders.

(Working hard or hardly working?)

Stay warm.

Love,
Steve B.

The Rumble Strips.

I just realized I forgot to post about Halifax's best new pop band. The Rumble Strips are Kelly (Whimsy and Spite) on Ukelele, Sunny Bones on the Casio, and Steve Believe on Guitar. The songs are heartbreaking and adorable. There's a bathroom recording of "Paper Crane Puke" posted on their myspace page. Check it out "Here".

Love,
Steve B

Jawsh Carson Is Releasing A Dub Step Album.

Just Kidding. I'm Bored.

Go listen to it now! Click -----> "Here".

Maritimes Shows.

Mistake Makers played a really fun set at the Paramount in Moncton on Thursday with The Fucking Gummi Bears. They are sweethearts who play a more ska-y Lawrence Arms kind of pop-punk complete with two saxaphone players.

Check Them Out "Here".

Saturday both Mistake Makers and Stagnant Stars played at Cd Heaven in Dartmouth. The venue was a lot of fun and Candace who runs the place was great. A bunch of kids made the trek across the bridge to come and dance. The bill was rounded out with Stop Motion Massacre who are super high energy noise-punk. They have a really laid back, silly approach to performing and have ridiculous singing faces.

Check Them Out "Here".

Mistake Makers Recordings Are Right "Here".

Stagnant Stars souls were captured by Rosie Toes.

NEW SONGS!

I tried my hardest to find out how to post songs on the blog, but my frustration got the best of me and I gave up... for now. Regardless, Mistake Makers have two new recordings finished and you can listen to them by clicking "here".

"Earl" is about losing yourself and attempting to find yourself in the midst of a hurricane. Complete with power outages, Blackouts, Emotional breakdowns and spraypaint.

"No Sleep Till Thunder Bay" is about touring and being silly I guess. But really it's about three people who taught me more about life than I learnt in twelve years of public education.

Love,
Steve B.

Showz.

Tell your friends. Come dance and sing and scream and feel okay.

Love,
Steve B.

Making Gold Records.

In preparation for their MINI! Maritimes tour, Mistake Makers have been doing some recording. All the tracks have been laid down for two songs, and they are currently in the mixing/mastering stage. These songs will be available for free download and posted on myspace.com/mistakemakers once they are completed. I hate recording personally, but at least Rosie took some photo's and made us look like rockstars.








Love,
Steve. B

Success.

Mistake Makers played their first show this past Saturday to a crowded kitchen. It was a blast. Stagnant Stars proved that they're still the best band on this continent (maybe all continents). It was kind of a night of celebration for all the hard work we've been doing.

Devon Jupiter took amazing photos and DIY Halifax did a great show review. Check it out!
