Saturday, March 3-Rest In Peace Johnny

On February 18, we found out that our good friend Johnny Kordylas passed away in a fatal car accident in nearby Paradise Hills. He was a good guy, and one of the first kids we met in our neighborhood of Sunbow along with his older brother Joseph. He is survived by his father Wade and  Joseph.

A show is being held this Saturday to help the family to cover costs. All proceeds will go towards the Kordylas family and costs for the venue. We hope to see you there to celebrate his memory, and even if you didn't know him, maybe you can come by to hang out or lend support. It should be a great time with different styles of music--everyone is welcome! Thanks

GNOOZ: Tour recap, (Sherman Drive, 3:37 PM), etc.

Salutations, seekers of knowledge.

Back from a great weekend of shows with our friends in Aukerman, we're ever-ready to move forward with whatever's next on the to-do list. The shows were excellent, the chile relleno burritos were nice and hot, and we made some great friends in Pomona and Ventura. Much thanks to Nick Townshend for filling in on drums while Aaron he wiped old people's asses. We are forever grateful.

We sold a couple of these over the weekend:

See the full gallery on Posterous

We were fortunate enough to stamp them out before we left. Hand-assembled with care, and individually stamped and labelled (out of 150). Grab one at our next show, which you can read about here.

If you can't make it to the next show, order one online here 

Better yet, give it a listen now.

(Sherman Drive, 3:37 PM) is up for jammage.

BIG WET HALL. We came from mixing the new ep entitled "(Sherman Drive, 3:37 PM)" with our buddy Alex Jacobelli at the House of Wonders in Escondido, CA. We've matured since our last release...three-minute songs, tons of reverb...rockin solos, oooof. That's what a semester taking Existentialism does to someone. Don't do it!

We'll have tangible copies up for sale soon but in the meantime, give it a listen. Thanks.

Happy New Year, You Sick Fools!

To one and all, happy new year from the KiDS. It's been great, and we're looking forward to more nonsense. Last night we had the pleasure of gracing the stage at VLHS in Pomona along with the dudes in Rad Company (OH), Discretions (TX), Hands Like Bricks, and Horror Squad. Fun was had. Jorge Chiu was kind enough to take pictures, which we'll post up soon. Here's a video of our set: 

Thanks to everyone for making it possible. 

We have a show on January 6 in Santee to kick things off for this new year, and on January 9 in El Cajon. You can peep the details here. Thankyu.

Finals are over. Let's jam. TONIGHT, that is.

The brutality is over. Now to begin a new chapter of insanity. We're playing tonight with KIDS, SLEDDING WITH TIGERS (KIDS/SLT SPLIT RELEASE) and STONES IN FLOOD. It's cool that we're also celebrating the release of The Mortimer Greene EP on cassette and cd. You're all invited to hang out. The show starts early, so exercise punctuality and be there fashionably on-time. We're playing some other shows soon. I'll post those up later. Thanks, beasts.
