Yeah, I said it. Tremendous. It’s not often we use words this big and hard to spell, but this show deserves it for sure.

Come bowl, eat, drink, stare at beautiful roller girls ( not too long though, you could could get socked), did I say drink?. Also, someone once said ” Let there be rock”. Fine, you got it homeboy. Rock it is.

MEMORY LANES FRIDAY MARCH 21ST 2008 10:00 P.M.

Did I say there will be a drink special? C’mon, every Skullcrane show involves a drink special. Why? Cause you love us. You also love The Angry Mothers, The Infidels ( not the shitty Infidels from Brooklyn, the cool Infidels from St. Paul) and The Northstar Rollergirls.

Bite it, The Skullcranes

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.

Hey kids~

To everyone who made it out to the 400 Bar on Saturday; it was frickin’ cold (right up there with the Hexagon night), but a good bunch of you came to share the love, and we thank you. Johnson’s mustache was a big hit with ladies and gents alike; I do believe it got more applause than the debut of our new song “Jessica Lange“… Dang.

(more…)

Hey You~

By the way…….IT’S FREE!!!!!!!!!

NO COVER!!!!!!!

Yeah, thats right. Free.

******HEXAGON BAR******1/19/08******FREE******9:00 P.M.

Thats right. Huge. This show is a MUST COME. A certain news entity (I’m not gonna say who, so suck it) will be there filming a bit of our show for a story on T.V. (none of that cable access shit either) about DJEDNA. If you don’t know what Djedna is that means you have not been paying attention to us, and frankly, that stings a little bit. I thought we were friends.

www.djedna.org

Q: What does this mean for The Skullcranes?

A: We are now totally huge. We don’t even know who you are anymore. No, we won’t sign that. I’m calling the cops.

Q: What does this mean for Djedna?

A: Some well deserved recognition for all the hard work Thomas has put into this. It’s about time if you ask me. Also, he’s huge too now. He isn’t signing anything either so don’t bother, or I’ll call the cops for him.

Q: What does this mean for the friends/fans of The Skullcranes?

A: It means, that when the film is rolling,  please stand in front of the stage. Is it asking too much of you to make us look cool?

So, we will see ya there. We play first, because we know you all like it better that way.

9:00 P.M.     HEXAGON BAR*MINNEAPOLIS* SATURDAY JAN. 19TH.  

also on the bill: My Valkrie and Dumpster Juice

A big THANKS to all who came out for our release at the Uptown last Saturday!

Come on out to Big V’s THIS Saturday for our last show of the year, and a night of Xmas revelry! We have the pleasure of opening up the night for 20 Dollar Love, The Rockford Mules, Tonnage, and another visit from our favorite Madison band, Droids Attack! Doors @ 9pm!!!
