Last night was the Sigur Ros show at the Orpheum. Lindsay and I went after eating at Goldbergs II. It was also the night of the second worst storms of the year. When we got there they weren’t letting people sitedown yet because they wanted to make sure the Tornado warnings would be over before the band played, so we, along with a hundred or so other people, just sat outside in the pouring rain. It was really fun. There were two casualties though, my socks, and Lindsay’s umbrella. The Umbrella broke while Eric, Mary, Lindsay and I were putting our umbrellas together to make a giant umbrella. It was working well for about thirty seconds until the force of a giant gust of wind pushed our umbrella inside out and broke some of the metal pieces. As for my socks, I had to throw them away. I was wearing my toms (http://tomsshoes.com), which was not a great choice for a rainy night, and they got soaked along with my socks. So I threw the socks away. Oh, and the show was freaking amazing!

Here is a photo of some people running into the Orpheum right after they opened up the seating.

So we put together an album of Mel’s original recordings of our songs.  We did all the design and packaging in less than 4 hours!  I really like how it turned out.  Mel’s recordings are so amazing.  They are $7 dollars and are limited to 100 copies.

We got the new Honeybee and Bear Country shirts in. Heres a look at them.

Honeybee “Drippy” (Collaboration with Melissa)

Meet & Potatoes was at SecretPenguin/What-Cheer this month and it was amazing. I met a lot of really nice designers. It was a really really good time.

I had to duck out a little early though to play a show at Slowdown with Honeybee. Our good friends Pomegranates and Capgun Coup played as well, it was a really fun show. Capgun Coup is soooo amazing.

This week Honeybee was the fifth installment of the City Weekly’s “Meeting the Band” column. They interviewed us after our show last Friday at the Box Awesome in Lincoln. Here is the first page of it. Will Simons did the interview, he’s a great guy, and the amazing Lindsay Trapnell took the photograph! Mom, if you want to read it they are available at gas stations and Hu Hot’s all around town!
