Our next show is at Ribfest here in Lincoln NE.  We play thursday august 9th, at 7pm.  This is an all ages event, 5 dollars at the gates.  All I can say about this event is, it brings in the best barbeque from around the USA, and thats not a bad thing.    We will try to remember the wetnaps this year.

Well yeah, you read it right, our good luck of not having an injured member for about 3 years now finally ran out.  And no, it wasnt a skateboarding, snowboarding, drunken fighting, work related, or anything cool type accident.  Zach shut his own fingertip in a car door.  Yeah, plain, simple, boring car door on the finger trick.  Sorry we couldnt be cooler.  I will post some pics of this disgusting, bloody digit soon.  The fingernail comes off at practice tonight.  Maybe get some video footage of that for your viewing pleasure.  But its broken, and its a good thing we have about a month off from shows for him to heal it up. 

 Next show….Ottos Underground in Dekalb IL.  www.ottosdekalb.com

 Dont forget to buy the new album www.interpunk.com  www.cdbaby.com  or right here in our own extra special store.

sorry for the lack of posts here.  we’ve been busy, and frankly, myspace is easier to update.  kind of.  anyways

 we played the 49r saturday and had a helluva time.  Free boos for drinking/working class bands is never a good idea.  I think we managed to play ok this time.  never been there before, and now, cant wait to go back.  kick ass staff, great room, lots of great people and fun for all.  even got to try our new accordion out…thanks to jim laabs music in wisconsin for hooking us up….it sounds awesome…

next show is:

Thursday June 14th, late show at Knickerbockers.  CD release for Lincolns, THE HOOLIGANS.  We will play before them obviously…sometime around 10ish…

After that, its up to Ottos in Dekalb Illinois on our way to crash a friends wedding(and play some music too)  That ottos show is July 20th. 

We have been getting some good reviews on the album…looks like its holding up to Brown Bottle Hymnals standard…  www.shitenonions.com   look under “reviews”
