some days are diamonds and some days are rocks

and sometimes god says "i don't want you to succeed". I am posting this from my living room watching caddyshack on AMC. I can do this becasue a few days ago i was riding with the Andrea Doria boys in the Stockholm down I95 approaching exit 90 in Four Oaks NC when upon turning on the offramp, we noticed a chage when every time steve hit the gas the engine would rev, but we weren't going any faster.

we pulled over and realized that the there was an issue since we had burned up all the transmission fluid... and although i'm not a car guy i know that is important. to make a long story less long, we preceded to take care of the sad sad business at hand. So 1 free hotel stay, 2 expensive tows, a $100 cab ride, and about $400 in rental minivans later we sold the Stockhlom to Big Doyle in NC and drive 13 hours home with our tail between our legs.

So unable to financially get a vehicle on such short notice fate has once again bitch slapped the Andrea Doria. So here we sit depressed, home from work and upset. But like that girl you regret meeting and giving your real phone number, we won't give up. Plans are in motion to keep playing shows, keep writing songs and in the near future ride again.

keep in touch for updates. We're a band fueled by spite and for some strange reason just can't give up.
