Well everyone, we are one step closer to having our second full length in our hands.  “One Step Ahead of Hell” will pick up where “Brown Bottle Hymnal” left off.  Chock full of suprises, and singalongs and hooks to keep you downing your rum or whiskey all night long.  12 songs, a couple crazy re-releases to keep all the old fans happy, american sea shanties, punktry and western, folk punk anthems, and sappy love songs should keep you coming back to this album for any occasion.  Hopefully.  We’ve been working very hard to make this the best we can and hopefully it shows through.  Howie down in KC at Mr Furious records is furiously mastering the disc as we speak.  Im hoping to have 3-4 songs up at www.myspace.com/thekilligans before the end of next week! 

 —-Saint Patricks day is rapidly approaching.   We are still finalizing our set of shows for the weekend.  Heres what I know. 

—-March 12th, Zoo Bar. Lincoln.  This is the annual KZUM benefit “Getting Jiggy With It” (thats my white boy interpretation of the title).  It will be some local Irish artists and us.  Was a good time last year.  This will be a good chance to come see us actually play some Irish tunes we normally dont play at other shows. 

—-March 16th, Us, at the waiting room in omaha.  THis is One Percents new venue opening up in the Benson area that night.  Still dont know who the opener is.  Could it be…you?

—-March 17th, Knickerbockers Early All Ages.  Just booked this week.  So far its Youth in Asia, The Killigans, and one more TBA.  Specially designed for all the kiddie shredders out there.  I hear a rumor that Boycaught may be coming around for this show.  Dont hold me to it though

—-March 17th, Knickerbockers Late 18+.  Us, and DesMoines own “the Vandon Arms”  Check them out on the latest PaddyRock Compilation.  Great guys, and killer drinking tunes.  I think they dub it “Pub Rock”  This will make to be one unforgettable night.  Or if all goes well, you wont remember much the next day other than the rocking.  yeah. 

peace in the middle east
