Hi all!  Thanks to those of you who attended the show last thursday night, especially with the lousy weather we had in New York (that’s the third time we’ve played a show when the weather was awful).  We broadcast it on Facebook Live, which we understand didn’t have the best sound quality, but at least people got to see it who live far away.  Our friend Matt also took some video, which he posted to the facebook page.  Once we can get the video working on the website we’ll post it here too (it’s a version compatibility issue with the website language).

Now, of course, we go on a bit of a hiatus.  Tommy turned in his keys after the show, so he is officially no longer with Outpost 79.  We of course wish him and Janet well with their new adventures up in Michigan, and hope to see them someday soon.  We have a few candidates for drummers to replace him (as if you could really replace Tommy!) but we’ll take a few weeks off before making that decision; next saturday, Matt and Mike will go into the studio to finish off their recording parts on the EP, and if that goes smoothly, we’ll move on to the mixing and mastering processes.  Hopefully we will have it completed and for release in the summer.

Meanwhile, the T shirt giveaway will continue even while we’re idle, so be sure to sign up if you haven’t already.  And get ready for new songs when we reconvene!
