Matt here, just wanted to electronically reach out and touch you all with some hot news from the JOC camp.
We have successfully completed our first 3 shows of the Music Builds Tour, and if the midwest is any indication it is going to be a great tour. What a monstrous bill of heavy hitters! We did want to pass along however that if you are planning to come out to Music Builds you should know that Jars goes on the first of the four bands, which most nights means we hit the stage at 6pm SHARP! So don't wander in at quarter to 7 and be all "wait, wha? jars is already over? dang it!" cause you will miss 35 power packed minutes of killer new tunes and reinventions of some of the hits of yesteryear. Also I should mention that the tour and our website are currently the only two places that you can get physical copies of our new "Closer" EP, which comes with yacht-tastic free poster inside! You don't want to miss this one, the new tunes are a bit of an appetizer for what the new record will sound like that is currently slated to drop in March 09.
I should also mention that you should check out the new merch designs up at our online store. There are some sweet new t's just in time for heading back to school so that all of your friends will know what a hip and discriminating music fan you are. ha.
That's all for now...more news about our Christmas plans coming soon!
