An honest to god living breathing human drummer. What is this world coming to?
Well, a couple weeks ago I posted a classified ad on Myspace for a drummer and within the hour someone replied to it. Said his name was Mark from Philly and he'd love to try out for us. So we got together for the first time less than a week ago, Tuesday to be exact (August 2, my dad's birthday), and the guy flat out ROCKS. Talk about good punk-sense, this guy knows how to rock the punk out and HARD.
So, some specifics for you ladies out there who will be very interested to know that our new drummer is single and looking. His name is Mark Miller, and like I said he hails from Philadelphia (Greater Northeast), although he was originally born in Latvia. He's 18 right now, drives a tricked-out minivan, and loves punk rock and long walks on the beach at sunset. Oh, did I mention his fiery red hair? And he's a Flyers fan which, as you all probably know, got him in my good graces right from the start (despite his trash-talking my state...we'll work on that).
So if you'd like to meet our newest member, come on out to Wednesday's show at the First Presbyterian Church of Pitman, on the corner of Wildwood and Broadway (right across from the Music Museum). We're playing a benefit for Leukemia and Lymphoma, becausetheir tour-van broke down and we're close to a cure and every little bit helps. Don't think of it as a $10 ticket for six bands, think of it as a good cause, and hey, we'll make sure you get your ten bux's worth out of our show, trust me. I know people who can't make this show and still bought a ticket, because it's a good cause, so you have no excuse unless you don't have $10, in which case, panhandling is a very lucrative occupation, trust me.
What else? Um, oh, we're unveiling a few new songs at this show, including a new punked-out cover of a non-punk song, and I've been sweating more than usual so bring a raincoat. It's fucking hot! And not hot in a Paris Hilton kind of way, although yeah we're hot like that too but damn it's fucking hot out!
So um, yeah. MtD OUT!

We had fun at the show too but I think it deserves its own little news item. I'm too tired right now to write it though.
