SOME THINGS.
So Rad Summer has Gnar Tapes. Rad Summer has the best gear too. Go down to their place on 36th and Division and get some tape and some clothes and shit.
Also my good friend Adrian is playing tonight at the Artistery as Thanksgiving (!!!!!!!) with Grouper and the artist formerly known as WOELV but is now O Paon or something. We are going to be there tonight, you should too.
Oh yeah and Rad Summer is having a show tomorrow night with a band called Lamb's Laughter that should be really trippy and rad.
Check their blogspot too.

CHEERFUL POETRY OF THE COSMOS/BEST SEXY BOYS EVER - WHT FNG
White Fang, our boys with the noise, have been doing all kinds of shit lately.
The last show they did was with Argumentix at the Clatter House, which is where our friends from the death metal band Scar of the Archetype live along with Joel who does sound down at the Satyricon. No joke, Joel knows what he's doing. I heard he did such a good job at the Wolf Eyes show the other day that somebody told him he must really care about Wolf Eyes. Which is funny and really rad too. But anyway the show was totally gnarly. Jimi, our lead drummer, is in Mexico near Guadalajara in a town called Atango to celebrate his grandparents' 50th anniversary, so we had our good body-buddy Adam Forkner of White Rainbow fortune fill in and he totally nailed it.
The kids went nuts and we were all really fucked up. SUCCESS!
Word on the street is that the White Fang's Marriage Records debut entitled Pure Evil should be in the office any day now, maybe a week or so?
The shit sounds great I guess, as it was mastered by, who else? Adam Forkner. Get ready to cream your jeans as your world gets rocked.
More word on the split 7" with the Righteous & Harmonious Fists! I went down to Marriage and saw the art for it, designed by none other than Maria Joan Dixon who did the fucking shit for the Valet Naked Acid record. Ours is got like spirit soldiers coming out of the sky as a cloud and shit. It's fucking rad. Those should be out soon too. Homeboys over at Tender Loving Empire are going to do the packaging, while papa Steve Schroeder over at States Rights Records will be doing the DVD that comes with it. Should be a sick little package!
Some deeper word on the street is that a badass little label called Now Hereness is putting out a new Fang 7" entitled But the Princess is in Another Castle that will contain the new banger jam "Eat My Shred" as well as B-side thats title is unconfirmed. Who knows when that shit will be ready... end of summer maybe? Sooner? Later?
Speaking of States Rights Records, word on the street is that they are making an Arigato pack for a 7" part of a release for the Pregnancy Series or something and the Fang is going to do one with a 7" called Mythology and a long EP-CD called Realer Godz or Cheerful Poetry or something. That's going to be rad. We were going to record over at Jackie-O's space or something with Adam, but Jimbo went to Mexico so we'll have to wait until after tour.
Even deeper talk of a split 7" with ...worms for maybe Marriage?
Also our tour with Rob Walmart and White Rainbow starts on July 10th or 11th or something and we'll be going down through California, which is a place I've never been before. Along the way we'll get to meet the Starving Weirdos and go swimming and play with Lucky Dragons at the Smell and all kind of stuff. Check the White Fang space (www.myspace.com/whtfng) to see our tour dates and shit.
So much to think about.
Hit me back later.

So I've been getting hit up for the White Rainbow tape (known as C10 aka GNAR LIFE) a lot and realized that I don't have a paypal account.
So the remainder of the White Rainbow tapes will be split like this.
Rad Summer, the coolest store in Portland (trust me, they have the BALLERest gear around, plus all kinds of cool records and shit) will have TWO of every Gnar Tape we have, including C10.
Marriage Records had two of them, but they sold out today, so Gnar Tapes is going to sell the remaining SIX on their web-shop-marketplace. THEY ARE STILL $20 WHICH IS A LOT OF MONEY BUT IT IS WAY WORTH BECAUSE IT IS A FANTASTIC TAPE THAT WILL ONLY EVER EXIST IN THIS FORMAT IN THIS LIFETIME.
If you try and bootleg this shit GNAR TAPES & SHIT will come to your house and hurt you REALLY REALLY badly.
Remember, the other tapes we have are FUCKING RAD too. They will be presented to you with pictures and whatnot at a later date.
As for now, direct your emails to bravebravebears@Hotmail.com for any questions regarding purchase.
PEACE OUT

GNARCOTIX
EVERYONE!
The first Gnar Tape is officially ready.
We are stoked to offer you this boner-inducing banger from our good friend, and recently departed house mate, Dust Collector aka Dustin Seafelt, C.MEL, Suede Callahan, Raw Blow, Johnny Carcinogen, DJ Redbeard, Bread Boy, DJ Son, etc.
This tape is totally fucking epic. Its primarily a rap tape, but in its 10 minute entirety features some of the most amazing transitions I've ever heard (including a tripped out grindcore blast that sends you headlong into the dopest tropical island beat ever.... seriously.)
So as is usually with GNAR TAPES & SHIT, at least on our end, we will only be offering you the limited edition of 10 to choose from. They're all lovingly hand-made and dubbed for your consumption and will cost you a whopping $10 a piece. This includes a free GNAR TAPES & SHIT handmade poster as well as some other weird goodies.
You can email me at bravebravebears@hotmail.com to place an order or send your neatly concealed money in an envelope addressed to:
GNAR TAPES & SHIT
3626 SE 8th Ave
Portland, OR 97202
We will have a shit ton of tapes to sell you REALLY soon.
Here's the forecast:
White Rainbow- Gnar Life ($20) 10 min TAPE
White Fang- Gnar Out ($15) 10 min TAPE
Breakfast Mountain- Gnar Tape ($15) 10 min TAPE
Super Destroy- Gamma Ray ($10) 10 min TAPE
Super Destroy (Megablaster) - Cool Bros ($10) 10 min TAPE
Super Destroy (Wild Bird/Megablaster)- The Goo/Spandex Knife 2 ($10) 60 min TAPE
Feather Headdress- Wananana ($5) CDR (Edition of 20)
That's just a little bit, there's SO much to come.
Including the highly anticipated SPECIAL THANKS video VHS starring White Fang & the Super Destroy crew, the SK8 & Rhone house, Marriage Records Ringwraiths, and SO MUCH MORE!!!!!

WHERE ARE YOU HIDING ALL YOUR FUN?
So I must sound like a total jerk but Gnar Tapes is still gearing up.
Trust me dudes, this shit is going to be so hot you won't be able to cool it off.
Also check the White Fang myspace for show updates.
We're playing with YACHT next. He's a really sweet guy, isn't he?
On a similar note, yesterday me and Jimi went over to his parents' house and we found my old copy of Nortenas by Lucky Dragons, from the Pregnancy series.
Gah, stupid thing happened earlier.
I plugged a power strip into the wall, but when I flipped the switch on it all the lights in the room and the CD player that was blasting Zen Arcade stopped blasting.
Now I have to figure out how the hell I'm going to fix this problem.
All the power in my room is gone, but nowhere else in the house.
Goddammit.

Greener Pastures & Dank Outs
Woke up this morning feeling dazed, but not in such a way that I felt unrested. More rather that the intake of substances can place a nice little bookmark in your tome of physical sensations, meaning that I kept my finger placed firmly somewhere between the page about being hungry and the page about sleeping on a makeshift bed.
I don't know where I'm going with this, but I haven't accomplished much so far this morning. I've used the bathroom, texted homegirl, and checked my emails. I want to work on Gnar Tapes shit for all of you today, so I think I will.
Shit is so unorganized right now. Going to figure this shit out.
Be back later.
