The Austin and Waco shows have been cancelled and Beaumont is on hold right now. More information coming soon, but please everyone keep Seth, our drummer\’s nephew, in your thoughts. Seth is in the hospital right now, in a coma. Keep Matt and his family in your thoughts, too.

41 Gorgeous Blocks is -pretty much- up and running again, at least for this week when we\’re on the road with the Tattle Tales from New York for the \”Texas leg\” of their summer tour. If you can come say hi, that\’d pretty much rule. It\’s been a hellacious couple of months \’round here lately. THANKS.

Our drummer is in Iowa, enjoying the beautiful scenery outside his hospital room window.

He flew to Iowa last weekend on a big Special Olympics trip (he\’s a coach for their volley ball team), but only a day into it, had to go to the emergency room for an infection on his leg. What started as a simple bug bite has now turned into some sort of staph or strep infection.

He\’s been in and out of the hospital twice this week and will probably be there until tomorrow. He says it seems to be getting better, so let\’s hope it does.

Go send him a message or email him if you\’d like. He\’s been able to hobble down the hall to a computer every now and then. Plus he\’s there alone and is probably going insane with boredom. Cheer that boy up:
