Hope all is well. What's new? Well.. not much, but here's some stuff:
INTERNS...!!! Anybody want to help out at asian man? It's unpaid, but I will hook you up with free music and clothing. If you live in the bay area (San Jose would be even better) and want to help us do a bunch of mindless work while listening to punk rock, then please get in touch.

LEMURIA is finally touring the west coast. It's been over 2 years since their last visit, so I'm pretty excited to see them again. Here's the routing:

JUNE
24th-Riverside, CA @ TBA
25th-Los Angeles, CA @ Echo Curio
26th-Santa Cruz, CA @ The Crepe Place
27th-Stockton, CA @ Plea For Peace Center
28th-San Francisco, CA @ Bottom of the Hill
29th-Redding, CA @ TBA
30th-Portland, CA @ The Artistery
JULY 1st-Seattle, WA @ TBA

Maybe it's a good time to do an asian man show in the parking lot before the A's game?
Hmmmm… I guess I should look at the schedule this season.
Also, If you live in any of those areas and want to pass out flyers, get in touch.

Again, for those who pre-ordered the FIVE IRON FRENZY DVD... IT IS DELAYED!! All orders will ship MARCH 19th.

Sorry for the lack of contests, but here's an easy one to win a laura stevenson test press. We will have a random drawing for 5 winners. Just email us and include the following info.
SUBJECT: Laura Stevenson RULES!!
and that's it.

And finally, a quick question for y'all. I'm wondering if I were to put together an asian man tour, what bands would you want to see on it? And how much would you be willing to pay for a tour that has like 6 bands on it? Hmmmm... Let me know your thoughts.

Peace,
