Time 4 T-Shirts

Last week we decided to make some t-shirts. This was no easy task, but it's good that we're blessed with such wonderful artistic friends that are willing to help out. The design was illustrated by Sirin Thada, and Chrissy Reilly lent a hand for the printing portion.

If you wish to own one of these gems, please visit the Merch page on our website for instructions. Or better yet, come on out to our next show!

**Injury Report and upcoming shows

The great aspects of analog instruments are numerous in count. One might think that a broken down instrument is something only a "professional" should handle, when in reality, a lot of times its a simple matter of soldering something back in place. Above is a picture of Mike's keyboard undergoing surgery. We're happy to say the surgery was successful and the keyboard is recovering. What's next for this guy? Maybe a little circuit bending??????

Be sure to come check out a couple shows coming up:

5.13.10 - Local 269 bar - w/ Bipolar Explorer
5.14.10 - Powerhouse area - for the NY photo festival.

..:PIANOS 4.15.10:..



Thursday night, Lower East Side, NYC. We were honored to partake in a show put together by Gary and Erica from Setting sun and Quitzow. They're leaving for a healthy tour of Europe on Tuesday, and decided to have an American kick off show. Both bands sounded tight as ever, and the Live Footage set ranks amongst the best we've ever had! Pianos has great sound, and last night proved no different. Here is a video of "Fatherado" (which was not exemplary of Pianos sound, but cool anyway)! We sincerely thank all our fans for coming out, especially because lately, we happen to be playing late night shows on weekdays...




Look forward to T-Shirts and homemade art from our old instrument parts!
As always..

April Fools/NY Bathhouses/NUBLU

On April Fools day we had a double header. First we played for another epic WIN party.
These are always really fun, and the night was complete with everything from swinger sideshows, really strong cocktails, and even Elvis! Another big thanks to Hans for having us.

Later that night we had to make the journey to NUBLU for a late night show. I can recall going to NUBLU when I first moved to NY and thinking how cool this place is. If you don't know its located in the heart of Alphabet City. There's no sign and the interior is a psychedelic dreamlike bar with great music all the time. A great NYC club all in all... As we were about to go on one of Topu's many pedals broke pushing our start time back from 1:30 am to 2:00. This is why we appreciate our fans so much because it's not often that people will make the trip to a place that isn't close (too many trains) and hang out until 3:00 am on a Thursday . So if you were there, THANK YOU!!!

Latest news:
About to Master our newest record!
We're gonna make T-Shirts!
Talking to P.R. and Publishing companies!
Playing at PIANO'S on 4.15.10 with Quitzow and Setting Sun !
