OMG - I want an iPhone.

Forget the ipod screen replacements... I want an iPhone! It was just announced today. I'm guessing it comes out in June of 2007.

UPDATE: Here's a clip of the iphone in action:

Anyone know where I can get a screen replacement for my 3rd generation ipod?

I am the proud owner of two 3rd generation ipods with broken screens. I did a quick search on google for replacement screens and the best price I could find was $69 for each screen on ipodmods.com. Does anyone know if this is the standard price for these screens? Email me or comment on this post.

Show at Next Door Tonight at 10:00pm - Danmerle's final show with LINUS

Please come out tonight to witness the departure of one of the founding members of LINUS. Danmerle will be playing her last show with LINUS tonight at Next Door. We start out set around 10:00pm. We will miss her. Here are a few photos of us playing together over the past 6 years....

I can see clearly now, the rain has gone.

No, that's not the newest member of linus, that's jimmy cliff.

Last week we were hit with a bombshell when we found out that one of the founding members of LINUS had decided to leave the band. While this represents a very large change for our organization, it will not deter us from the original goal that we set out with: GLOBAL DOMINATION.

Please join us tomorrow night at Next Door when we play our last show with Danmerle. We will be playing the hits from our first album. After that, LINUS will continue to play shows as a three piece until we secure a fourth member. Thank you for all the emails and messages. See you at Next Door tomorrow night :)

In "you heard it here first news", Danmerle has informed us that she is retiring her LINUS status. We wish her the best in all her future pursuits.

Today Danmerle informed us that she will be leaving LINUS indefinitely. She will be playing one last show with LINUS on Tuesday, January 9, 2007 at Next Door. As this news was very unexpected, please allow us some time to deal it.

I’ll post more details as the story develops…

Late last night, I played music with a couple(seven) friends in the studio....

Yesterday, my friend, who's in town for christmas and new years called me to ask me if I wanted to play music. I called Vibe Asylum and made a reservation for studio time. We convened at Sandy beach for a supposed drum circle (it was raining so it didn't happen). After he finished night swimming, we headed into town.

If you've never played music with 7 people in a room, you haven't lived. It was so much fun to just play whatever to whatever everyone else was doing. Too bad stan and nik couldn't make it though. I'm sure it would have been crazy with 9 people in that little room. I meant to take photos but I left my camera in the car. I'm thinking of getting a compact camera that I can take to shows so I can post photos on this blog.

I think we got a little carried away at the studio because the owner came in and told us that we were playing too loud.... We were. But he wasn't too pissed off about it so I don't think any harm was done. It'd be great to make this a regular thing but only time will tell.

LINUS might get together this weekend to hash out the particulars of our band. We all have new ideas that we haven't been able to express to one another because we haven't had a chance to meet up in what feels like weeks, because of christmas and new years obligations. Personally, I'm looking forward to just playing music. I got some new recording equipment that I'm going to use to record our practices. In fact, that's my new year's resolution. "I'm going to record every practice." Hear that danmerle?

Alright, this is getting too long.

Had to push back the launch of the website to make sure it all works before we change

Hey everyone, happy new year. Hope you didn't get burned lighting those firecrackers. I nearly did. Anyway, I'm very sad to say that we'll have to push back the website launch a few days. We are not going to transition any of the user accounts to the new website so that everyone starts from scratch.

We have a band meeting this week where we're going to decide what we want to do in 2007. Right after that, we're going to go record more parts for the CD. Sadly, I think I will have to be killing the song "Crystal Clear." It never made an appearance at any shows, but we recorded it. Maybe we'll release it as a B Side. I'm working on the DVD. That's pretty much it. You can check us out on myspace.com/linusthebanddotcom while the website is being finished.

Later,
David
