Tonight

Mighty Pretty

Dm7 G Gm7 D
I'm alone in this city
The lights are mighty pretty

I'm just trying to get downtown

The subway steam

Looks like silhouettes in my dreams

I'll go it alone for as long as I can allow

G# G D
Come in white when I call

You can count on me or not at all

You know me like I know you

---------------------------------

They've got stories that don't lie

Their worn wax faces pass me by

Next stop's mine, I'm on my way

They're all slaves to this race

Trying to get to one place
I may get lost but will be okay

Come in white when I call

You can count on me or not at all

You know me like I know you

SHOWS IN DC/PHILLY

SOOOOO

we are new at making videos. i just got a new computer and the webcam on it is thrilling to say the least. christening this new machine was no easy process, as it took us about 90 tries to get a video we liked. however we didnt want to deprive you of the journey we went through to arrive at said video. enjoy observing how hopelessly stupid we are when poised in front of a camera

xoxoxo

BNSN

P>S We are not playing DC anymore due to some conflicts but the philly date is still on and we are going to put up more videos.... watch the great acting... hashadjdk af gjda f

here are the details for philly http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=264894030694&ref=ts

fail, next

oh the fails dont stop a-comin'

Thats it Folks

I do not have a lot to say. Except Eric and the band have parted ways, but that will not slow down all the progress we have made. We are looking for a new singer that will bring us to the next step. This could not have been achieved before. So tell your friends! ha


On a lighter note. We have signed with Feed That Baby Records. A UK imprint of Poison Tree Records. The single "Pilot Lounge" will be released by the fall. So check the interweb where to download it along with extra goodies. You can hear the rough cuts at our myspace and facebook.

Also August 15th we are playing Pianos. With special guests. Also it is the night before my b day so should be fun. Come make bad decisions.

We are in the middle of recording a new record as well as setting up a tour. So there are things happening and we are excited for the new person who will come and complete this already stellar production.

Shows, Recording, LIFE

Where do I start? (thematic or chronological?.... i do not think i can do either)

First. Hello everyone. The weather is great, isn't it? It is reminding me of summer and how pumped i am to get that spray tan.

Anyways. We have been really busy these past couple of weeks.

We played a show at the Bitter End two Saturdays ago. Thanks to all who came out... it was right up there with the crowd from Fat Baby. We are now moving on to play crash mansion may 24th (i know it's memorial day weekend, but what is better than a BBQ and then a rock show?) You can get tickets here for $12. There is more info to come.... do not worry the harassing emails are on their way. haha.

We have been in the studio recording new tracks. We recorded at metrosonic studios in Williamsburg (hipster cred) and in Bushwick (some street cred) Our leader OP has been awesome. We did our tracking of five songs in couple hours. And it sounds fucking massive. He is currently mixing it and i am excited to share these new songs with you.

Last Friday we played our alma mater at the pub. Thanks to those came to see the exhausted shit show that it was. I have nothing more to say about that.

Finally.

I have been working a day job at a college catering to the non-English-speaking contingent.

Benson is still working at COSI and has gotten an "interesting" haircut hopefully we can get band pictures before he changes it hah.

Prolow is still killing dreams. But due to the nice weather has been frequenting the outside.

Eric has gotten into steroids and has been reading mens health looking for new ways to enlarge his already exquisite thigh/calf muscles

love one another

BUY TICKETS ONLINE

Alright.

We are playing a show on March 11th at Fontana's for the Emergenza Festival (this is so we can go to europe). And we are selling tickets. They are 10 bucks if you get it from us. Or they are 15 at the door... but we want you to get it from us because we love you. WE are now selling them online here.

If you buy them online you are able to buy them using paypal and they will be waiting there for you at the show.

But we need you to come either way. Because Benson is a sore loser. And I like to win.

We cannot lose to balding guys with soul-patches and stupid bro three doors down bullshit.

There will be more details leading up to it...Buy them. We will drink into the night for those who do not have work. For those who have work we will drink and party before...so it is a win win...


much love

NEW RELEASE TOMORROW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hello Beautiful People. It has been a while.

It is true. Tomorrow we are releasing "Hello Midnight Mixtape Vol I." It is a collection of demos and songs that we have been writing for the past couple of months. You can own your very own one by ordering it online tomorrow at our MySpace! It is 8 bucks including shipping. Which is a deal AND they come with a password in which you can get pictures, lyrics, and other mixes of our songs.

Also they are hand numbered. Now aren't you cool?

We have a show at the Annex on Feb. 22nd which should be great. I know it is a Sunday, but it will be worth it.

I will check back in soon with some good stories. I have been just tired between getting this release ready with the undying loyalty of Annalisa. And i have been writing a lot of new material that should be raw(er).

Come see us live. I want to blow your mind.

P.S. ORDER THE CD!

THAnKs Given

Ello.

Firstly, I hope everyone survived their food coma from thanksgiving. I think i ate more in these couple of days than i have eaten in the last 5 months. So i am good for another 5 more. Anyway. I thought i should check in and hopefully some new people are going to end up checking this.

I went to my hometown for thanksgiving. The wood. And it was very much a high school Reunion/ drunken embarrassment. It was nice to see some people that i have only been stalking through facebook (ha...is he joking?). But to all the new comers that i strong armed into checking out the band. I say come play with us. And tell your friends.

I must get going and fill up on more turkey. I swear the next entry will be interesting.

P.S The new Kanye and Tv on the Radio blow my mind.

Our Heat is off

As i sit here with a cold nose and dressed in winter gear i could not help to realize that i have not written in a while. So with my cup of tea and a bottle of Jameson i hope to increase my body temperature. (our heat is off)

We are recording like crazy. Everything is sounding really good. And it is sounding different than our other stuff. We have established some good songs that i think will you will like. Not this stupid stuff that is happening now.

I was browsing the inter-web today and stumbled on cache of these teeny bopper bands that are dominating pre-teen audiences. Bands like boys like girls, cobra starship, the kings and queens or something .... and i think they fucking blow. Like seriously. I am all about melody and hooks and even willing to sell out a bit but these bands are bent over holding on to their ankles.

Music...more specific rock and roll.. is an expression of ones conflict, perception of the world, and loves won and lost . Not robotic voice sounds and synths speaking about sexual innuendo that comes off sugar coated. It is kind of like disco with all those teen beat singers with the fluffy hair. All the power to them of course because they are getting attention and living the dream. But i would personally be embarrassed.

Anyways more about the band. We are now planning to release a new song each week. Hopefully with a video that will accompany it. Depends how good we get at editing videos. The song will be put up on myspace and facebook each Tuesday. So stay tuned for the release of each song.

We have a plan. Annalisa and the rest of our support team are going get our music out there but we need you to dig it. So please spread the word and we will do our best. Much love. I will write a less heavy post once my body temperature rises.

STARTED RECORDING

To WHOM this may Concern-

We have started recording. We are now doing demos. There is a link to the new song "Losing Ground" at the bottom of the page. As you have gathered from the other guys' posts--we are learning as we go. I think the songs are going to sound massive. And create some interest in what we are doing. I am doing a lot of writing so we are going to record as many songs as we can.

We are planning to release a song a week accompanied with a video to show our progress while demonstrating our antics of being such "ROCKSTARS." I guarantee that we think we are funny... maybe you will too.

You have many things to look forward to. Like the stimulating competition of NHL "hitz" and the occasional star wars/matrix arguments between Eric, prolow, and benson. In general we will entertain. We are going to share with you drunken debauchery and what else we can post pertaining to the band and our lifestyle. Hopefully through these videos we can start turning people on to our music while turning you on to us. (that sounded forward. but i mean it)


Here is our first crack at it. We are learning how to use my photo camera and not editing it. Think of it as recording #1 (Also look for it on youtube as well)




We are having a meeting managment this week to come up with a plan. So stay tuned. Tell your friends. Check out the demos and our myspace. Also comment on the songs! Much Love

RECORDING

Matt is setting up his drums, Benson is yelling, and I am currently up 1-0 in my daily battle with technology. We have begun recording the Hello Midnight debut in our spot. Mic cables are being strung from window to window, as Hello Midnight Headquarters has been turned into our recording playpen. All it needs is a ball pit for Benson.
-Prolow

Dr. Thunder

hello all.

I promised that this blog would be worth checking. Well i hope. So we have started checking things off our list. Mobilizing to relaunch the band with a new look and a newer sound. As for look... NOT matching clothes or something but more how our online sites look and the direction the band will go in. I think we are now shaking off all the trail by error bullshit and have something worth getting turned on to. Right now i have posted up in the rehearsal room (our sunken living room) with a bottle of rum and a soda called Dr. Thunder to mix and an almost empty pack of cigs. Not that bad. i am finishing up lyrics and demoing. getting ready for the lads when they come back for practice tomorrow and the next day. They are voting at home like good guys... don't worry i am driving home tomorrow morning.

Before i forget. We are headlining a three day festival this Thursday at Red Star in Brooklyn (summer 07 memories). If you have looked at this then you have the facebook info... if not www.myspace.com/hellomidnightmusic for details. Apparently there is supposed to be a lot of press and industry people there so obviously i need to make a scene.. Ha.. check the blogsssssssssssssssssssssssss yo

But we are doing well. And the new stuff is going to be massive. We are hashing out a date to relaunch the band late November early December. So please comment on the blogs. If you are into the band or whatever...

AND OBAMARAMA
