New Pig Cloth Website!
Since everyone and their mother has a clothing store, Aaron Gillespie and his wife Jaime came up with this idea for a clothing company back in 2007 called Pig Cloth. There's a really neat review about them here. I've been wearing Pig Cloth since 2007 because (as you all know) I love Aaron Gillespie. A LOT. They've launched a new website as well, so check that out here. It's cool but just like everyone else.

If you haven't seen it, go see it. I enjoyed it. The Oscars will be held Sunday, March 7, 2010, hosted by Steve Martin & Alec Baldwin. I can't wait to see who will perform, musically that is.

Am I the only person who hasn't heard from Silverstein in a while? They are making new music, and apparently are about to go on tour with A Day to Remember and August Burns Red, but I honestly haven't listened to them since When Broken is Easily Fixed came out a million years ago.
It looks like they will be coming through Seattle (at Showbox SoDo) on April 27th for those interested! Should be a decent show.

Shipshape no longer available?
Yes, the clothing line Shipshape Roolz Clothing, created by The Devil Wears Prada frontman Mike Hrenica, had to shut down due to some stupid legal issue. (I thought this whole thing was a hoax, but I was wrong.) Anyways, the new clothing line Traditiona will be released soon. Anyone cool enough to sue Shipshape Roolz Clothing line should really be punched in the kidney. The sound of Traditiona just isn't as cool.

The Underoath dudes brought up a good point. It's getting into the winter season, and weather can change in an instant. If your vehicles aren't winter safe, you could be on a roller rink of death, in a ditch in no time. So, stop and be safe, show goers. You only get to live once.

Underoath (my favorite band of all time) was nominated for Best Boxset/Spec. Packaging. Finally, Seattle's own Death Cab For Cutie was nominated for "Best Alternative Music Album". This year, I'll be looking forward to the Grammy Awards.

another band robbed...
Remember how we reported that Mae, Anberlin, and Kill Hannah had stuff (merch, equiptment, ect.) stolen from them in various locations in Pennslyvania? Well, The Right Coast just had everything stolen from... you guess it, Lancaster, Pennsylvania. So, if you believe in the state with brotherly love and quakers, expect to get robbed, that's for sure.

The organization To Write Love On Her Arms will be in NYC (like 20 min from me) tomorrow for a photoshoot with Rolling Stone Mag. I wish i could go, but tolls and lack of transportation hinder that. Maybe i'll jack a bus. It's all for a good cause, right?
Anyways, tomorrow is also To Write Love On Her Arms Day! It's a celebration of the organization TWLOA raising awareness on suicide, depression, and love. Support the day by simply writing the word LOVE on your arm (any language, font, or color!)! Also, wear any shirt that says love or even a TWLOHA shirt!

There will be multiple distributions of Hello Hurricane. Alongside Digital Download via iTunes & a standard CD edition, fans can purchase the Vinyl edition w/ a standard CD, the Deluxe CD/DVD edition, the Collectors's Deluxe Edition (including the CD/DVD/Bonus disc, a hardbound 84 pg photobook (WHOA!), exclusive poster and other bonus stuff), or an exclusive package on iTunes containing acoustic versions of the album. Way to go, Switchfoot.

Bring Me the Horizon?
So, I met a guy on my campus who LOVES Bring Me the Horizon. They posted a new video on their myspace videos page. (can't really link it... so just click BMTH's link). There's guest vocals from Sam of Architects. LEGIT. Be sure to look out for their "Suicide Season: CUT UP!" release in the next few months.
Seriously, does anyone else think Oliver Skyes is pretty cute? Am I the ONLY ONE?! (One HUGE REASON why i love this band... no joke.)

The Almost Acoustic Set at Hot Topic.
A little birdie told me that The Almost will be playing an acoustic set at the Hot Topic store in South Center Mall. But don't think you can just show up and watch right away! There is a little catch that allows you to watch the performance. The date is not for sure set, but head into Hot Topic in South Center and tell them a little birdie sent you ;)

On October 6, 2009, Aaron Gillespie (aka my musical love of my life) and the Almost will release 5 tracks EXCLUSIVELY via Hot Topic a MONTH before Monster, Monster (their first full length cd since early 2007.). The EP is in a 2 disc set. Disc one will contain the music, 5 songs off of the LP. Disc two will contain blank cd with Monster Monster's artwork, lyrics and printed track listing on the physical CD. BAH! Artwork of my hubby will get me to shell out ANYTHING! REMEMBER, it's only at Hot TOPIC!

The end of Cute is What We Aim For???
No official statement has been made from the four-some band, but lead singer Shaant Hacikyan tweeted something that's been brewing. If Hacikyan goes solo, what does that mean for the band? Is this the end of Cute is What We Aim For?! Who knows. CIWWAR's last album was Rotation from 2008. They are on Fueled By Ramen Records.
