*an email from Thomas, our digital media guru*

I uploaded Hate My Job this morning and it’s already one of the most active tunes of the day.

“All over America, cube drones are listening to this: Monitors are being smashed, coffee pots being peed in, asses on the copier machine. And it also makes the song I was going to post today ‘another day another dollar’ seem like a Barney sing-along. I shall wait another week!”

“I needed this song this morning.I can’t stop laughing..and I like my job:-)”
- cicerhode (http://thesixtyone.com/circerhode/)

“This was PERFECT for today. Gets me going. This is pure punk at it’s best!”
- Apocalypse (http://thesixtyone.com/Apocalypse)

That is all. Back to your crappy jobs.

Trivia Quiz: What was the final song that The Skullcranes played at their goodbye gig last night?

Answer with your comments below…

MERRY CHRISTMAS.

Everything The Skullcranes have ever recorded is now available for FREE DOWNLOAD at www.theskullcranes.com. Thats right. Free. Oh, except for “Golden Fucking Pancake”, that still has to be purchased at www.round13records.net on the R13 Compilation. Also, there is a song called ” I’m a muppet, so suck it” that was recorded for a movie about a homicidal muppet copkiller called “STUFF’D”. This movie was made locally (Minneapolis) by Sleepy Eye productions. Not sure where you can find it, but you all are smarter than us so good luck with that.
Now, to address the bitter folks who paid hard earned dollars for Skullcrane C.D.’s in the past……… The photo of the band on the cover of the C.D. is totally hot. Totally worth 10 bucks. Also, these are super-high quality MP-3’s you can download. They actually make your IPOD get warm and vibrate when you put them in there. Some people have claimed that after installing Skullcrane songs into their IPOD, it becomes like one of those decision making 8 BALLS. Yeah, I guess all you have to do is ask it a question, give it a good shake, then it tells you no, maybe, yes, change your phone number, that’s just not O.K., I would consult a physician, she’s your cousin, buy a skullcrane t-shirt May 17th at The Convention Center, etc.
There has also been claims that when downloading Skullcrane songs onto your computer, it “runs faster” and “just smells smarter”.
But, if you still need to vent about spending that 10 bucks, what better place than than the skullcrane website. Comment on.
The “Wt. Trashmore” as well as the “jskullcrane” actual C.D.’s will still be available for purchase through the ROUND 13 RECORDS website if you are totally old school and can’t hang with living in 2008.
So there you go. Enjoy and see you MAY 17th at The Minneapolis Convention Center. Get your tickets in advance so you only have to pay $10 instead of $12.

Go spend some points and spread the bump love. If you have no idea what that’s all about, go sign up for a free account and bump The Skullcranes. It’s really the least you can do, all things considered.

Don’t forget, their other tracks are tragically under-bumped as well.

Congrats to Debbie Donovan, who took 2nd Place and won a Dime Bag with the following:

1. The songs are so hooky that they get stuck in my head and I just starting humming skullcranes tunes at random times. It’s just not appropriate for a woman my age to be singing about loving Asian whores or somebody help my find my pants. It’s just not right. Sometimes I have to go on a (more…)

Congratulations to Mr. Samuel Carey, who took 3rd Place (and won a guest list slot plus a free shot of Jameson courtesy of the band) with the following:

O.K.-

Don’t act like we don’t know that you are sick of us playing and you having to come out and see us in the cold and snow and late and we are drunk and Johnson writes run on sentences that usually make not any sense and right now you are getting ultra annoyed about the lack of content, flow, grammar not to mention words put together that are hard to say when they are next to each other.

What I am trying to say is this, we are playing at The Triple Rock on March 13th.

BAD NEWS: Its a Thursday.

GOOD NEWS: We are playing early. (By the way thanks to all of you who hung out with us until 2 in the morning last Friday. )

BEST NEWS: P.B.R.’s are $2.50!!

So, tell your boss you will be a little late on Friday the 14th due to a dentist appointment which will also cover for your sluggishness because they had to gas you up. We will be leaving the following morning for the Chicago area for a couple shows playing with The Goodyear Pimps ending in Madison.

SO…..HERE IT IS.

If you show up for this show, not only do we promise not to play another local show until the following weekend at Memory Lanes (3/21)………but we also, collectivley , guarantee………….perfect weather.*

*perfect weather is relative, in other words, don’t plan on riding your bicycle.

Suck it – traffic signs of all types. This is an undeserved message with a tune that rocks. F-T-S-S
