Soooooo... we are off the ground and running with Andy throwing down percussion and it couldn't sound better! He just got his congas a few short weeks ago and it already killin em. We have four shows this week, and a night in the studio tomorrow. BUSY BUSY BUSY! I don't know of any other bands that are out working it five nights a week! This should be our last recording session, which means all we have left is mixing and mastering through to the finished product! We are SUPER excited to be finished with it, and can't wait to show you guys what we have been up to since SEPTEMBER LAST YEAR!
Just thought I would let you know :)

A Day At The Track
WOW.
What a great day. Two days ago, we opened for The Plain White T's at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. That day has easily taken the cake for the best show I have EVER been a part of. Everything blew my mind. From the get go, people I didn't know where wearing "Post Script" t-shirts, and swaying their arms and singing along. INCREDIBLE. I have NEVER felt a rush like this. I have played big shows before, but never for 1000+ people who were so involved in what we were doing. We were completely out of merch before we were even done playing! And after the show, it took us 45 minutes to sign autographs and take pictures with everyone who wanted them! INCREDIBLE. I have never felt so appreciated for the hard work, blood, sweat, and tears that we have poured into this band. If you were at the track last weekend... thank you so much... for you truely made every second hard work worth it. I can't even begin to express the gratitude I feel for all of you.
Also, Scotty Davis. You are the man. Scotty is the personality of the Radio Now 100.9 morning show, and one of the coolest dudes I have ever met. As a drummer, we talked shop about our favorite players and what kind of kits he has owned. The Post Script did their first on-air interview (30 seconds!!! WOOO!!!), and just hung out with everyone from Radio Now. Great people.
And thats before we even started talking with The Plain White T's!! I only had a chance to talk with Tim and Dave (the two guitar players) but they both surprised me with how down to earth and normal they were:) They thought of themselves as just a group of dudes playing music, just like us. I was pleasantly surprised with how easy it was to just talk to them about music, and what they were up to, and how their tour had gone. They were surprised that they got some sunshine! Dave said they almost always get rained on at outdoor gigs!! =P
At the end of the day on Saturday it was all I could do to pass out from exhaustion. After one of the best days of my life, it was hard to go back to mowing grass at my parents' house on Sunday :) But the program director at Radio Now said we would definitely be doing more of their events this summer... so keep your ears open for more great shows!!!
As always, thank you so much for reading, listening, and being there for us.
Peace, Love, and Good Vibrations-

Today's Thoughts
hey all,
I just wanted to take a moment and thank Pierce, John, and Nick for jamming with us last weekend at the Vollrath. Also, Dunk Nasty J and G-Rat... the show couldn't have gone on without you. In lue of all the fun we had... we are brining John back with us this weekend to Depauw for Derby Days, and doing all we can to make him a permanent member of The Post Script society. :)
Today's thought: Where would we be without our closest friends?

Update from the road number 2
Yo guys,
Blain here again, just chillin in the van beside abe, We are on our way through the central western portion of Florida right now, about to go into Tampa. This is the first day so far that our entire trip has not been totally engulfed in a rain storm. It has been beautiful and sunny, which is good for those 8 hour drives.
The last few days have been a rainy mess, but we have been having our fair share of fun, for sure. We met some cool people in New Orleans on Sunday and subsequently rocked the roof off of the Bank Street Bar. Our new friends we made took us out to enjoy a night on the french quarter, which at 2 A.M. on a sunday closely resembles a ghost town of sorts, but everything is still open, so that was pretty sweet. We were supposed to play at this CD shop in town earlier in the day to promote our show that night, but, interestingly enough, they had a band in doing an instore the night before and apparently lost about half of their inventory, a likely story. HA!
The previous night we rocked out in Pensacola and it was intense for the pure fact that Abe and I had not slept in 48 hours and now had to play a 4 hour show. A few drinks or so took care of our lack of enthusiasm at the impending performance and we hit the stage. Honeslty this was the smallest stage a band has ever been asked to play on. I hit matt in the head with my bass at least twice, and I swear you could smell the alcohol on the breath of every person in front of the stage, these were some intense 40 plus suburban Gangstas getting down the the fresh sounds of our man Susiedapter the Siren Scratcher on the one and ones. I think one couple tried to dance swing to Same ole' emotion, which really, sorry folks, just isn't going to happen.
So those are really the two shows we have played thus far, it is strange to think that we have done so much and the tour isn't half over until we get back from this trip tomorrow and play another show at the dizzy bean coffee shop in Gulf Shores. We'll be sippin' coffee on the beach playing acoustic guitar and doing our best to beg for money to pay for the rest of this damned tour!! Does anyone want to send some cash our way? $50, 000.00 would sure be great right now. Just please remember to make all checks payable to "The Post Script." Though we do prefer Cash Moneys :)
Quick shout out to everyone who has been enjoying the beautiful weather back in Indiana, YOU'RE ALL ASSHOLES!! This was our chance to go south and call you all to make you feel like we are in the most beautiful sunny weather ever, not the opposite!! lol At least Tampa is lovely today anyway. We miss you all, Check the site, we will be back in town soon with PLENTY of upcoming shows for or friends to get their Post Script Fix. Until then, anyone feel free to call us, email us, or stay in touch with us through our Myspace or facebook.

Drop us a line, wish us luck, or get an update to see when we will be playing in a town near you!! We are on the road, loving it, and thinking that maybe another tour, or 2, or 50 is just what be in the future for us.
Peace out Everyone,
Blain
P.S. We are making a video of this entire trip and will hopefully package it and make it available for everyone to get a hold of. So far we have not only the antics of downtime with The Post Script, but, also some pretty bad ass live recordings from our last show.

The Tour, First Day
hello everyone,
This is Blain, We have just started filming this tour!! We are in Indiana on route to Pensacola Florida With our good friends Brian and Zach. We are looking forward to a nice vigorous tour of 9 shows in 7 days, the first of which was last night at the E.S. Jungle in Broadripple, IN. . .which is our home town really, but, I do feel the urge to label the state since we will be out of the state in just a bit over an hour. Thankyou to everyone who came out to see us off. It was a great night full of great art and music for sure!
So, we just got our speakers fixed up by the great Kevin Silva and we have a fully loaded van of musical equipment, luggage, and 5 men who claim to know what they are doing on this cazy little excursion. So far we have had to Duck tape some lights on our van so that they would stop flashing on and off, the GPS system is falling off of the windsheild at an alarming rate, and Matt has lost his phone, wait. . .YES! He found it. Clutch.
so anyway. . .Abe is our driver I am riding shotgun, and matt, Brian, and Zach are packed like sardines in the back, tired, quiet, and quite motionless. . .so, as of now that is the extent of our journey. I will keep everyone posted on here throughout and hope that we will has some exciting stories to tell you all soon.
