ps - our bassist Hunter is unloading a car! please reply to this newsletter if you or anyone you know is interested! here's his craigslist post --



I have an orange 1979 MGB up for sale. It runs great. Currently there are a number of new parts: New U-joints, radiator, plugs and plug wires, distributor cap, Lucas Sports coil, have polyurthane bushing set for front A-arms, all fluids recently changed. I have installed a fuel pump cut off switch. The top will need replacing-it was hit by a serious hail storm. The brake master cylinder has been rebuilt, did a minor rebuild kits on the carb, installed miata seats-which make for a very comfortable ride. The downside is about a year ago someone backed into the passenger side door with their truck(trailer hitch got it-they didn't see me because I was below their line of sight, they were in a big diesel truck.) I manged to pull the dent out but have not had the time or money to get any work done to it. The rolling mechanism still works it just looks like someone shot the door with a shotgun. I'm looking to sell because it still needs some stuff done to it. It could use some cosmetic work mostly which I just can't afford. If interested please contact me through e-mail please.

ok folks! we are all settled in back in our home town of Albuquerque and we have agreed to play an acoustic show at Atomic Cantina tomorrow night! as always its no cover over there and we usually average about 3 acoustic shows per yr so dont miss this!

hey everyone! we know it's been almost two months since you've heard anything from TGB but we moved to Las Vegas NV to seek out a drummer and start our album. as it turns out we are moving back to Albuquerque tomorrow and we are looking at some drummers in New Mexico. the new album is still being written, but we wanna make sure we have that solid third member before we get into the studio. we also have some other offers in LA to do a record and we are weighing all options. we are very blessed to have so many awesome choices right now. living in Las Vegas has been INSANE! some days were 115 degrees and July was the hottest month on record for the 702 w/an average month long temp of 96.2 degrees! we accomplished and learned a lot living here for several weeks w/no jobs, income, drummer or gigs to play. but now it's time to come home and regroup for the next chapter. we have some awesome shows comin up too! we get to support our old friends in Bodies of Evidence for their cd release and then we get to see all our ALL AGES crowd at the NM State Fair on the main stage at the Ford Pavillion! we are heading to Socorro too so make sure you stay posted for whats to come!
