Despite rain and work I was
able to make it to the First Day Of Summer Festival on Saturday.
It was only for the Boxing Lesson (who put on a great set), but I did go!
Anyone else get around to getting down at Guero's? If you couldn't
then that's OK, because I still love you. Although, if you did go then
you're now a preferred reader. Or something. In any case, let's
discuss Sam Champion. I could of swore that the last time I mentioned
them they were on the verge of releasing their sophomore effort, but after
all this time I just realized that the disc still isn't out.
Who teases an album with singles and videos for almost a year!? It's
crazy. Thank whoever that North Street Records is finally going to put
out Heavenly Bender on September 2. Enjoy.

Champion - Be Mine Everyone:
I know that it's usually a better idea to ease into the new
week with something a little more calm, but for the sake of
the weekend past let's bounce around and get crazy to this
raucous rock track from the band that I thought just made
catchy pop tunes. Actually, while you get acquainted
with your new favorite summer jam I'm going to look up tour
dates so that I can figure out how soon I can willingly get
my ears blown out.
Here is a video
for the song Dead Moon (which is on the new album)
that features one continuous shot and a bunch of hung-over
people at a rooftop party. You should watch it.
