hi.
this FRIDAY FEB 26 pat and I will be playing a set with our friends in DUST ON THE BREAKERS, the incredible denver band made up of our friends tim, jeff, and jeff. click here for more info and stuff. hope to see you there if you live in colorado.
in other news- finally got the new vampire weekend album this morning. the song “giving up the gun” is almost too gnarly. i highly recommend it.

yo.
very nostalgic mood today after seeing that james (our touring bass player and touring manager) is in cleveland without us. thankfully he’s with the incredible band ha ha tonka, but still. makes me miss the road and c-town and all of that. so what better to do now than to post a bunch of old tour photos. check ‘em out.
olympics, new tunes, backing up Dust on the Breakers, taking dogs on walks, our own birthday, and two holidays.
we’ve missed a lot since our last post.
thanks to everyone for the meese birthday wishes. pat and i played our first show feb 11 2005 at the soiled dove when it was at 20th and market here in denver. crazy.
while we’ve all been busy writing new music literally every day and demo-ing new ideas and songs, patrick and i have also been practicing to play with and back up the wondeful band Dust on the Breakers. we’ll be playing fri feb 26 at the bluebird theater in denver along with the swayback. going to be a monumental show, hope you can come out.
and also- sorry we missed groundhog day and valentines day. we’ve just been really busy. it’s not you, we swear. happy 6 more weeks of winter and congratulations if you’re in love!

just got home from playing our sold out show in greeley at AF Rays with the heyday and a ton of other local talent and the word WOW keeps coming to mind. what a great show. haven’t had that much fun at a show in a long long time. great venue great crowd great bands great everything. thanks to everyone who came out and a special thanks to the snow plow we drove behind on I-25 for 2 and a half hours through an insane blizzard.
talk soon.

Meese have been relentlessly touring for the past few years, which means the guys spend a lot of time holed up in a moving van, often searching for ways to pass the time. In an interview with Spin.com Book Club, Nate discusses the best way to make time fly by – reading!
