PET LIONS AT HIDEOUT

Join us Saturday, February 27th at The Hideout in Chicago for the Life During Wartime Dance Party. We are playing as ‘special live guests’ before resident DJs Bald E. and Mother Hubbard take over and continue what will be an all night dance party. This is our first appearance at The Hideout, an awesome venue we’ve been anxious to play at. It’s going to be a great time, so be sure you’re there.

Last day of mixing

We are currently sitting in the studio on our last day finalizing mixes and getting things ready for mastering. So far, we think things are sounding pretty damn good, but maybe we’re a bit biased. Regardless, we’re really excited to get this stuff out so you can hear it and make your own decision. The folks up here at SPACE in Evanston have been awesome, and the studio is incredibly comfortable. If we could, we’d move in. They also make a damn good pizza at the attached restaurant, Union Pizza. A studio and some pizza…what else do you need? A big thanks goes to our engineer Dan Glomski, who helped make this stuff sound great. Below are Dan and Karl at the desk.

Boxing Day at the Bottle

poster-72-site copyWe all know the day after Christmas is a bit of a bummer.  The good news is, you probably have the day off work/school, have friends in town, and now…you’ve got kick ass plans!

12/26 we’ll be playing at The Empty Bottle, and this is a show you won’t want to miss.  We’re playing alongside a couple great Chicago bands, Unicycle Loves You, and We Will Eat Rats To Survive.  DJ Screeble Dee will keep the party alive between sets, so you can essentially shake it non-stop, all night long.

The Empty Bottle is one of the best places to see rock music in Chicago, and they have a mighty fine (and affordable) selection of beers, wines, and spirits that will be sure to keep you warm on this predictably cold winter’s night.

So come on out and keep the festivities rolling all the way until the new year!  Tickets are available here.

LPD Retrospective

A nice look at the Laughing Prairie Dog Festival we participated in over the weekend.  Many thanks to WPGU for putting together this awesome event, and for letting us be a part of the inaugural lineup!
