2.28.08 - Surprise Show, Colorado, and Metro Times Blowout

Put your hands up for Detroit


Tour has been going well, with the exception of some nasty weather that curtailed our plans to melt faces in Des Moines, it's been great! Grand Rapids, Kalamazoo, and Chicago! Wow, you guys brought it hard! We cut our gums in Lawrence and Lincoln to some very receptive audiences and can't wait to see you all again this summer at Wakarusa! We send out a huge thank you to all of you who have supported us thus far whether it was offering a floor to sleep on, coming out to the shows, or hanging posters. THANKS!!!! And to the staff of each place we played, your hospitality has been amazing! You've gone beyond the call of duty! THANKS!!!

We're really getting tight with Dan on bass. He's really stepped up and killed each and every night! Grab your first chance to see the band with Dan, you won't be disappointed!

It's been a pleasure and an honor having Jay Minger on the road with us doing our front of house and helping with merch and daily tour manager duties. We can't begin to tell you how amazing the sound has been so far! It's really been a treat and you need to be sure you come out and see how much better Jay makes us sound, who knew we could actually sound good?

1: SURPRISE SHOW TONIGHT IN DENVER!
Our very dear and close friends Ryan Kingsley and sister Katie Nilsson just recently bought a bar! As the proud new owners of Denver's Old Hole they welcome us into their new home for a big surprise show tonight! The show is a free show and starts at 10:00 pm.


Denver’s Old Hole

2: WEEKEND SHOWS IN "RADO"
Tonight's show is the big warm up for two huge shows in Denver and Boulder. Friday night we return to Dulcinea's 100th Monkey for a HUGE Leap Year Party! What better night to get faded with Bump than on Leap Day?

We then head up to Boulder to play with good friends Kinetix at Trilogy Wine Bar on Saturday March 1st. Our first show ever in Boulder was opening for Eric McFadden at Trilogy, we can't wait to get back!


3: METRO TIMES BLOWOUT LAUNCH PARTY HEADLINERS!




For a couple of days we get to feel like Aerosmith, jet setting on planes between gigs! Metro Times has chosen us to headline their big launch party for the Metro Times Blowout at the Majestic Theatre on Wednesday March 5th. We will leave Halen in Denver with Jay and fly home for this big show. This is a slot we're honored to have and we hope you'll come out and share in this big night! We will be joined by Cetan Clawson, Mega Weedge, and our good friends The Silent Years.







4: WEST COAST DATES!!!!
After years, we're making our debut on the west coast! We fly into Denver and have a long drive from Denver to Las Vegas for our debut at The Thunderbird Lounge at the Aruba Hotel. Las Vegas Jamband Society and Noise Project present the show. It should be a rager! Free show that often goes until 5 am!

We'll make our first appearance on Friday March 7th at The Mint in Los Angeles before heading down to San Diego to Winston's, and then on to Phoenix, AZ at Mesa's Goat Head Saloon on Monday March 10th.
