Joe here! How are you guys doing?!?! Well, things on our side have been grand! Last night was yet another amazing show. We were so happy to see tons of old and new faces! We love the hugs, the handshakes, and the makeout sessions.... I mean smiles. Our family is getting too big for the mug. lol.
As for you kids who are out of state, we'll be touring soon so keep your fingers crossed. make sure you keep sending up messages on our myspace or leaving comments here leting us know where you would like us to play because we're doing it for you guys, or just leave us messages saying "Hi!" because that's just as wonderful.
well, once again. we love you guys and we'll talk to you very soon.

So, things have been amazing/busy on the select start side of things. Sorry we haven't been the best at keeping this journal alive, but i'm going to change that.
We are STILL working on the record. That's right.... but it's ok, because the more we work on it the better it's going to sound. expect a late jan or early feb 06 release.
We also got sponsored! We know.... we're excited, too. The company is Revenge Clothing. We stand officially along side Let Go(militia group) Kane Hodder(fueled by ramen) Emanuel(vagrant) among others. We are the only unsigned band on board so it's pretty sweet.
We also have new merch!! you can check those out at our shows and you can check them out on our website when the new layout is up!!
here are a couple of the designs!


so many new things, so little time!!
ok. I'm tired... bed time.
I LOVE YOU ALL!
next show:

wow, the shows have been so awesome lately! i'm tellin' ya. I love all my friends! every single person that supports us and sings along and hang out with us afterwards. you guys make it worth while!
ok, so our album is coming along. We did vocals for a couple more songs recently. I figured I'd release the track list. The order might change but this is the tentative order.
1. care a little or caroline
2. middle school called; it wants its mentality back
3. leading you on (and other over-used clichés)
4. stranded on a desert island with three things: you, a knife, and a reason to use it
5. see max bleed
6. a trivial pursuit of happiness
7. i should of known she was a robot
8. what ever happened to the high five
9. rogue
10. rest your head here
11. call it a truce
12. she’s not a hottie hotty (feat. the rotary)
Chances are there might be a thirteenth song. because i'm emo and i like to write secret songs that mean a lot to me!
ok. That's enough jibber jabber.

Hey everyone! I haven't posted on our livejournal in awhile. How are you all? So if you've ever been to our website, you might have seen some of our funny short films. Well, we just added TWO new episodes to "The Adventures of Pinky Swear and Shannon" saga. In order to fully comprehend the madness, you must see them from the beginning. So go grab some popcorn, sit back, relax, and click here!
I'll write back soon with some updates on warped tour, the new CD, and everything else, Select Start! Later! -MAtt

objective two complete:
bass tracks are done for the new record. How exciting. I also did about 6 songs on guitar, it's moving along quite well. We will most likely have the guitars DONE by this friday! holy smokes! And hopefully by august 1st or 2nd well have a single up on myspace for you guys to download. that's right. download. Burn it, Give it to friends, poop on it, do whatever you want.
HUGE thanks to Josh and the boys in Tears in the Sahara. He let us use some equipment for the records and lets just say, it's sounding amazing.
next post I'll have some picture of the recording process.

We finished the drum tracks for our new Full Length CD! 12 brand new songs from the boys including a full band version of "Leading You On (and other over-used cliches)" We still don't have a title for the record yet... any ideas?!?!
We really hope you guys will like the records. We'll be throwing some videos up on the site of us recording! so keep checking!
