Things are changing quickly over at the Strictest Sense Headquarters. It's times like these that I feel spread over too many websites to keep shit straight, so here's what's going on: Strictest Sense (the website) governs 4 hydra-heads if you will. These are: Scammers, Cold House, Strictest Sense Records, & for what it's worth, a few local show-listings. There's news for all these things! Here it is!
Scammers: upcoming shows:
10/9 @ Record Bar w/ Melt Banana & Gangi (LA)
10/10 @ FOKL w/Expo '70 & Gangi (two nights in a row!!)
10/19 @ ___________ ? We're thinking Madison, Chicago, or Beloit?
10/20 @ ___________ ? Iowa City, Minneapolis, or Omaha?
10/21 @ Joe Younglove's House in Lincoln, NE w/ Nude Sunrise (CHI)
10/22 @ Cold House w/ Planets (TX)
+ we just added a super-sweet analog synth to our setup & I'm trying to figure out how to play it without ever touching it for more than 2 seconds. We'll see. It's also fair to say that Scammers is pretty much becoming a 3 piece band now, w/ Sarabeth & Jeremiah killin stages. Killer.
Cold House: The house is about to undergo some serious construction zone demolition; the end goal being Cold House becomes Warm House. Unfortunately, I have no idea how long it takes to do that, so we can't really book anything in the meantime. However, we're still on for 10/22 w/Planets, even if it means dancing around exposes pipes and drywall dust coating our lungs. It's gonna be coating our lungs anyway, so fuck it.
Strictest Sense Records: Ain't much happening here at the moment. Half a Scammers album coming soon. Someone else needs to sign on with us.
Local Shows: I oddly go to a lot of local shows and never know before the day of, so currently the one I'm really excited for is this Thursday @ Studded Bird w/ The Body, as mentioned in two previous posts. Also, any of the stuff happening at our house will be awesome :)
