It is truly the end of an era. Mickey, Dave and Mark are moving out of the "band house" to their own pad, as they say. The move out has been truly epic, spending hours, nay, days cleaning the dirt that collected over three years of neglect to the house! We even found a dead mouse underneath the fridge. I wonder how much he added to the smell of the kitchen over his time under the fridge. Either way, it's going to be fun to set up the studio in Dave's new digs and get started with jamming again, this will probably be the longest we've gone without playing music in upwards of six years! Crazy.

I like drumming quite a bit. I also like the band Radiohead quite a bit. So you can imagine I was a bit excited when I heard that the drummer from Radiohead, Phillip Selway, has just release a new solo record titled Familial. You can download the first track off the new record, Some Kind of Miracle, for free at http://www.philipselway.com/. It's a beautiful, calming piece that came as a surprise to me. I haven't heard the rest of the record yet but I plan to scoop it up soon and I recommend you do the same. That is all.

Greetings internet world! It's been very busy business as usual for Vices I Admire. We've won a pretty arse-kickin' national contest called Breaking the Band hosted by the company We Are Listening. You can check out our pretty mugs and a write up about it here. Needless to say, it's pretty exciting. They're still figuring out the exact prize package, but you can get a good idea of the hotness by clicking on this word. If you don't have the time, I'll paraphrase. We've won the help of promotion and distribution company Tinderbox Music. Their job is to launch a massive promotion campaign on our behalf in an effort to get us placement on College Radio, Television and in Film That's right, Vices I Admire could be the sound of The George Lopez Show! Yeah, I know, impressive. Seriously though, it's very cool and we are grateful for the opportunity. We've also got some pretty cool shows coming up, check them out below.
