Merry Christmas eve! Here is a picture for you. Again, my internet connection and computer access is unreliable which is why I can't promise daily updates until I am back from my out of town trip. But I can promise you some GREAT videos!

Blip Festival is over. Another great year. Thanks to The Tank, 8 Bit Peoples, 2 Player Productions, all the musicians, visualists, staff, and fans! I was grateful to take a part in it (filming with 2PP).

Blip Festival update: I just saw Nullsleep, Disasterpiece, Fighter X, Starscream, Patric C, Covox & Random as Condom and Hally all on one night. Wow. Speechless. Tired.

Drew will be in NYC and VA for the next two weeks so who knows if I will have the ability to update the website! If I can, I will. If I can't, you'll have to consider this your "daily update." Just re-read this.

A picture of the equipment after the 12/11/09 show at Loft3a. I didn't get a chance to take a picture of myself while performing. Rachel was out of town!

Nevermind, it's probably Pneumonia, not Bronchitis. Asthmatic keepin' it real with respiratory illnesses in the cut - WUTT WUTT! Going to make a video with Ben in NYC in a few weeks. Blip Festival this month! Show with Greenleaf!

"Edit" HTML file and "Delete" HTML file are right next to each other. Crisis averted thanks to "restore" function. Whew. Sneak attack show next Friday. The audience won't know that they are going to experience an Orange Drink show. They aren't even expecting music! Should be crazy!

Norma Jean is playing at Reggie's tonight but I am sick and can't go :(

Asif and Drew (two of Hemlock's finest) perform music together as Greenleaf. They will be playing a show on Monday, December 21st in New York City. Should be a fun time.

I think there is a 90% chance of an Orange Drink show next Friday. Let's hope this Bronchitis clears up.

Wow. Still in a lot of pain from playing drums on Saturday! I think I have whiplash or something. May be a combination of drumming + sleeping crick. Sorry for the short updates, just not feeling well. We might have a show next Friday.

Feeling a bit under the weather. The Swoon Method CD is finished, and there are plans for some great new Orange Drink merchandise/music. Have you ever e-mailed Orange Drink MP3s to a friend? Do it today! We endorse it and it is allowed within our Creative Commons License.
