4/7/07 show pics from the alterknit lounge - updated

Thanks to everyone who was there. The sound was pretty good. But we have too much shit. It took way to long to set our gear up. Oh yeah and the bartender was an being an asshole. He wouldnt give me ice because he thought I was bringing in my own alcohol. It's really hard to be nice when your being honest and someone just thinks your lying and giving excuses. Fuck you bartender guy.

These pictures were taken by Greg. He's the fellow with the dark glasses looking up in the second picture above.

the black dirt freakout

the real plan

here are some old pictures from our cd release party last year.

Got this player piano from a thrift shop a couple weeks ago, batteries for camera today.

We found this player piano at a thrift store on Venice blvd. All the player parts are removed but the keys are in remarkably good tuning. I bought it for 125 dollars. It's a hardman duo with serial number 129xxx. This site tells me that the piano is from 1963. We had to carry it up about ten steps with only four people. It was really fucking heavy. If I was going to die and I needed to lift something really heavy in order to survive, I would only be able to life about 10 percent more than I did that day.



After about a week I discover this. The wood in front of the keys flips open to reveal tempo and volume levers. And two mute buttons for bass and treble. The whole front above and bellow the keys can be removed.
