DO YOU BOOK DIY SHOWS?-All of you who book shows across the United States or actually anywhere in the world, get in touch. Trying to build a good network of DIY venues/promoters for Asian Man Records bands. So get in touch if you can help with booking. mikeasianman@aol.com

TRADES: Anybody live in the bay area?? Near San Francisco? Want to trade stuff for Asian Man cds, shirts, etc. What free stuff you ask?? Basically anything...if you work in a restaurant, theater, any type of entertainment like arcades, batting cages, amusement parks, blah blah....anything. Let's trade!! Anything we have at Asian Man is up for trade. Actually, even if you live in a different state/country get in touch as I tour often and perhaps will end up through your town. BOOYAH!!

Hello Friends.
Happy Friday. I am leaving for Phoenix later tonight as I am officiating my 15th wedding. I am old pro now. This time I will be officiating a wedding for Joe Chavez and his wife Brooke. Joe was in the punk band DIVISION from Chicago. His band was on the asian man compilation UNDERGROUND SCREAMS with a great song called REGRETS. I love officiating weddings. And you know who else is officiating weddings? DAN POTTHAST. He did his first last weekend and my goodness he was so good. Anyways, on to some news.....

A new pressing of Andrew Jackson Jihad "People Who Eat People" and "Can't Maintain" are now available on the asian man site.
Can't Maintain is on OPAQUE WHITE and is limited to 400 copies
and
People Who Eat People is on CLEAR GOLD and is lmited to 300 copies

We have received the actual vinyl for the new ANDREW JACKSON "Candy Cigarettes, Capguns, Issue Problems! and Such", but still no art. Jeff Rosenstock is doing the art, so please feel free to send him a message saying "When will you be finished with AJJ art"? He'll appreciate it. I think this is a first where we got the vinyl before the art, so yay for us. Also, AJJ is in Europe for the first time ever. Bristol tonight with KEPI.

The Hot Toddies are currently on the east coast for the very first time. If you want to have the most fun in your life, go see them. I've never seen 4 girls drink so much and still be able to play their instruments. Pretty impressive. Even though I don't drink(well sometimes a beer here and there) I am always amazed how bands are able to drink and still rock. Or do drugs and still rock. Maybe I should try it? Just kidding.
