IMPORTANT! We've been having some technical problems with the online store. They've been resolved now and everything is working as it should. But if you ordered anything from us in May or June and haven't received it, please let us know.
Alright, so I'm embarrassingly late with this post. Chalk it up to the fact that I am a lazy drunk (note to prospective employers: I am a hardworking teetotaler).
So here's the update: we played NYCPopfest. We made new friends and saw some great shows. We almost didn't see some great shows, thanks to the goofy door/ticket policies of some of the venues, but Michael stepped up to the plate for us. Thanks Michael! My Teenage Stride was a definite highlight. Listen to them. We took cabs and trains and drank a lot and got our shorts salted. Playing in Brooklyn was pretty fun, despite our soundguy-abbreviated set. We debuted our cover of Holland, 1945. This is what we looked like:
The guy who took that picture wrote that we were "slightly fratty." O RLY?
Then we came back and played at the North Star Bar in Philly. This was also metric tonnes of fun. We got some excellent pictures of the evening courtesy of Ed Roper. Check out the photoset here.
Well, that's about it for now. New stuff is, as always, coming soon. Catch you on the flip side, and remember to read your Borges.

The Only Living Boy in New York
Tonight we're off to Liberty City for NYC Popfest. Then we'll be back to play at the North Star in Philly. Exciting times. Updates to come. Stay tuned, folks -- same bat-time, same bat-channel.
Indentions in the Sheets
"Our minds are permeable to forgetfulness; I myself am distorting and losing, through the tragic erosion of the years, the features of Beatriz." -- Jorge Luis Borges
Hello friends. I bring news! First we have some shows to tell you about. We're very excited to be playing NYC Popfest in June alongside so many top notch musical outfits from all over the globe. And it's not just a show, it's a BBQ! We'll be back in Philly immediately afterwards to play at the North Star Bar. As always, head on over to the shows page for details.
We also have a new demo to share with you. It's called Things I Used to Know.

The old wooden swingset where we used to play
the scent of the autumn in eastern PA
the taste of your skin at the end of the day
oh, I hate to see them go
The play of the moon on the skin of the lake
the song of the birds that would nudge us awake
the lay of your hair and the curve of your face
oh, the things I used to know
why can't I keep them here with me?
I see them still like last night's dreams
and what becomes of the memories
when we stop remembering?
Wind in the leaves on the first day of school
the sting of chlorine in the Willowdale pool
they're fading according to time's awful rules
oh, I wish that it weren't so
Save my house and save my room!
save the lake and save the moon!
why can't I keep them here with me?
I see them still like last night's dreams
and what becomes of the memories
when we stop remembering?

Covered!
Hello there. Things have been quiet lately, but expect some new tidbits soon. In the meantime, check out this fantastic piano/vocal rendition of Artichokes and Julia by Felix from Germany.
(Note: our databases show that there are in fact three copies of Steve Goldberg and the Arch Enemies in Germany. Still, big ups to Felix.)
