Chapter 1: The Ballad of St. Barb

Talk talk talk talk talk and now we DO!!!

Thanks to everyone who came out to the send-off show last night at Andy's (hope your eyes quickly fell heavy amongst the sound of the party) and thanks ya'll for wishing us the best.

I played long verbal game of hello/goodbye to myself as I drove away from Los Angeles today with many more on the later half. It was sad too think about and I was listening to Brian Eno: 1/1 which just intensified the contemplative feeling I was being gifted and shaky sound of my own voice . I want you to know that I'm sort of really sad that so much time will pass before we see each other again - with some more than others - but still nonetheless, I can't tell you enough that I love you all dearly. Thank you especially to ya'll, who know who you are, for helping us directly and for the support. Finally, I've been thinking about the show last night and couldn't remember if Laura got proper credit for her work with Matthew on the posters which kick some serious ass.

I feel pretty good about the show last night. Fistfight For a Woman's Right and The Sun Song were a lot of fun, some of the new tunes need a bit of rehearsal but I'm stoked about the freedom of playing old and new songs in completely new ways for fresh unadulterated faces and ears. Get ready for costumes too. Weird ones.

We're playing tonight with Alisha's brother's sweet band called Seahag in Santa Barbara at a hip coffee house called Muddy Waters that has some delicious sounding Telegraph Beers on tap and employs a awesome dude named Bill who's got a fowl mouth that said "I don't give a shit what you fuckin' guys play as long as you're called the Righteous and Harmonious Fists". Right on, man.

I'm hoping to get some pictures up as soon as I take some which I have to go do now. But check back soon, I'm not going to do this without you.

Love Jordan

    I didn't get to say goodbye to you last night. I will miss you, dear jordan. Write often, if you can. I hope you all can feel my invisible rays of love and admiration warming you.
