-the “my my (bad fruit)” 7″ picture disc single
-mason proper shirts in your size as long as you’re like kind of adulty
-other stuff from dovecote records like a hoodie and stuff, maybe some more cds from that direction
-A RUMOR*** of the winning entries release on iTunes

***please note that you do not actually win a rumor, but that there is a rumor that you actually get your songs released on iTunes in relation to us or something or whatever or something [like] something or whatever

hey everybody

the monolith festival at red rocks
w/us (mason proper), the flaming lips, spoon, clap your hand say yeah, the decemberists,
and–LITERALLY–a million–NOT EXAGGERATING–
other cool bands
is happening on sept. 14th and 15th

and there is this link
here
where they are giving away
“a pair of 2-Day Tickets with VIP Wristbands”

which means not only to get to attend both days of the festival
but presumably you get to use the wristbands
to, like,
bug wayne coyne
or be actively ignored by britt daniel

heeeeeeeeeeeeeey

if you did the mp3 profile thing
check your email
because we sent you a link to the song

“Traveling Men (The Pond)”

if you DON’T receive it by Tuesday
send us a message
with your email address
and we will fix that

hope you enjoy the song
AND
thank you muchly for helping expose the seedy underbelly of music on the internet

the seedy underbelly is the easiest part to stab with a spear
if you are in battle with it

my posts are getting spotty
i’m coming apart at the seams
and all the marshmallow fluff inside is coming out
and that attracts ants
which upsets the cleaning lady
who knocks over the lamp
(in anger)
which sets the drapes alight
and eventually alerts the fire department
who comes and sprays the house
which makes me get soaked
which only makes the marshmallow fluff get oozy and come out faster
which attracts more ants…
