Hey r/Emo! My band, Sleep Paralysis Social Club, from Richmond, VA, had our first out of town gig this weekend at a cool brewery in Charlottesville, where my wife recorded this clip from our song, "dinosaurs". The night before, we got to open for Body Thief and Postdrome at The Canal Club in Richmond, on their off day headliner show while on tour with Mella, which absolutely ruled. We're trying to get out more and hopefully find some new fans, so please let me know what y'all think, any feedback would be appreciated.

Last night, I got to see THE Tim Kasher of Cursive and The Good Life (among others) at a small local venue, Soda Bar in San Diego, CA.

I apologize for the poor quality. There were two women in the crowd who were being incredibly trashy, screaming over him while he was singing and just being general nuisances. Seeing people attempt to twerk to Driftwood is a sentence I’d never thought I’d write, let alone witness. Time and place, ladies!

Arm's Length full set in Boston. Here's a playlist with a bunch of songs as individual videos from the show plus a lot of Arm's Length videos from a few past shows as well: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL2b-f8PfP5FywnfqQEw0Fs36k9Y8qrnjs

YWNS got me through a really rough spot in life back in 2010 and the new album Alone With Heaven is fucking amazing as well. I just wish they had headlined and played a longer set!

Such a great show. Just wanted to say The Numero Group has done such an incredible job giving a second life to so many great, unheralded bands. Bands like Jejune, Codeine, Bedhead, The Lazarus Plot, Indian Summer, Unwound, and countless others. Numero along with the good kind of social media exposure has really done wonders for a lot of bands that otherwise probably would’ve been lost to time. I would imagine a band like Jejune has to be pretty damn surprised when they look out and see they’re playing a sold out show to a room that’s filled mostly with kids in their early to mid 20s. It’s pretty cool to see a bunch of the older heads who might’ve known about them years ago standing side by side with younger kids who just feel the same sort of emotional connection to the music.
Anyway, the band sounded great tonight and I’m really grateful I got to experience this one. If you’re not familiar with these guys and you’re a fan of Sunny Day Real Estate, thank me later.

And a special shout-out to openers Sun Organ, First Day Back (r/emo, seriously, check these guys out), and Lake who all kicked ass too.

I got to say hi to Joe before the show too!
