web site updates

hi all,

the website has been updated all over the place. you can find images of the press kit (larger than the ones here on the blog), new photos in the photo section, and overall, major formatting changes. hopefully the web site looks better overall. also, be sure to check out the songs page - it looks completely different. you can read the lyrics of a song while listening to it at the same time. what a novel idea!

press kit photos

here they are:






we put these together by hand one sweet morsel at a time. the cd's are printed and dried - just like california sweet raisins before they are packaged and delivered to the market. not that it matters, but we think this thing is mighty fine.

let us know what you think.

press kit

ok, i finished it. we all signed off on it and it looks damn good. pictures of it will be on here hopefully by tonight after i get all the shots from our last show off the camera and onto our web site. look out.

The Punk Rawk Show

A big thanks to everyone who came out to support us at The Haven. We had fun meeting all of you and talking with the other bands. We are continuing to record and work on our wonderful press kit that Evan has done such a great job on. We'll let everyone know when we have more shows. Until then, check us out on MySpace or Download.com Later.

System Kid Press Kit

our shiny new press kit is almost ready. hopefully by the end of the week. we'll show off some pictures of it for the world-wide unveiling of this little beauty. no really... we think it looks great. check back soon.

new show added

check the shows page for our next show on the 21st. let us know if you need a flyer because its $5 instead of $7 at the door to get in if you have one. let everyone know we are playing!

Systematic

Bart and I wait patiently in Rita's salon as Ray sets up equipment. Meanwhile, you can help us out! Go to download.com and submit a review for the band. Its free and easier than Easy Mac. Then you can download the 3 songs. Every day... until Aimee Mann starts downloading our songs and unknowingly dethrones herself from the #1 spot. Smooches.

squashed the bug

thanks to System Kid Blog reader Bob, we fixed a bug with the blog. a blogbug. he noticed that if you went to one of the blog posts by clicking in the archive section, or by subscribing to our RSS feed, the buttons at the top of the pages weren't showing up.

*wallah* we fixed it. thanks for the heads-up Bob.

new image online

we uploaded the new stellar shot (if we say so) of the band to our photos page. check it out.

we also updated the myspace page.

the photo was done by Michael Rodriguez. you can see more of his work here.

battle of the bands

ok, so we didn't win. let's just say we didn't really fit in. it was a nervous, fun, long, tired, exciting, rewarding, uplifting, boring, networking, learning, teaching type of day. we made lots of keen observations and made a few good decisions based on what we saw. special thanks go out (a shout-out of sorts) to Done In Secret and The Phoenix Effect. without these two bands our day wouldn't have been nearly as interesting or fun.

now we get back to recording.
