Saying we are pleased with how the writing process has been going is an understatement. There are a lot of new songs and new ideas floating around the house right now. 2010 is feeling like it could be a great year for innerpartysystem. Hopefully, in the oncoming weeks, we can get a little teaser together to share with everyone.

In the meantime, we have been invading Legend's of Reading, every Wednesday night. Last week we played two new tracks, as well as some mash-ups of a few of our older tunes, along with a lot of songs we love to hear loud. This Wednesday I do believe Kris and maybe Jesse will be there with some more jams for everyone to hear. We are going to try and make this a regular thing, so if you are into everything as much as we are, come out and have a little fun with a non-genre specific night of tunes. The drinks are cheap, the music is loud, and at some point in the night I can assure you someone will do something pretty ridiculous. I swear. I was there two weeks ago and some dude around 50 years old was singing "Fight For Your Right To Party" in nothing but briefs. When the guitar solo came, you could tell he was hard up for something to do for the 18 second intermission, so he rolled around on the floor. The best part was, no one was even paying that much attention. At this place, that is totally rational behavior.

JAM OF THE WEEK



JAM I'VE MISSED (circa 2005-2006)

JAM OF MY LIFE

Happy Saturday to everyone. We had a great, yet sad Friday night. It was our last night with our tour manager and good friend Danny Vance before he embarks on his journey back home to Brighton, England. We had a great time hanging/kicking his ass for the last few months and were all sad to see him go. It's okay though, something tells me we are going to see him this spring, maybe. (hint hint)

On February 9th, Hopeless Records' none profit organization, Sub City, will be releasing the 9th volume of their "Take Action" Compilation. A portion of the proceeds go to charity, you can read about the details of that, along with a track listing HERE

Our remix of "Hot Mess" by Cobra Starship will be featured on the comp. You can pre-order by hitting the link above as well.

ALSO, for those of you who asked, there is a solid link to Patrick's Remix of "She Loves Me So" by Anthony Green below. I kept uploading that to zshare or yousendit, and the link expires quickly. This link is permanent, so download away.



[note: if you're crafty you can download this using view source. otherwise, I seem to have broken something soooooo when I get to a computer I'll try to make it work for everyone. -andy ]

The biggest bummer of my week was self inflicted. This past Thursday, UK drum and bass behemoth, Noisia played in NYC. I don't use the "B" word lightly, this dude's bass tone is the deepest, nastiest out there right now. I had been planning on going for weeks. At the beggining of this past week, I decided not to stay for the show, and do the responsible thing and come home to tie up some of my many loose ends here in Reading. Last night Jesse pulled this youtube clip up, and unknowingly reminded me of how stupid of a move that was. Around 2:30, shit gets real.
