Word up, long time no talk. Here is a quick breakdown of whats been up with us as of late. We spent alot of the summer traveling up north playing in new hampshire, maine, mass, and a big home show in RI. Thank you to everyone who came out to any/all of the shows and rocked out, said hi, bought merch, or just gave good vibes. Fall is shaping up to be really productive as we are headed back to the studio with Poorman in October to record some new songs. We have been promoting/touring on the Consider This EP from almost a year now and its time to get some new material out there. Throughout the fall we are looking to hit up as many colleges as possible, so if you know people who know people, please let us know and we can come play your school. Hmm, what else, well shortly 3/5ths of us will be living within the Providence city limits, so that should be sweet. Oh yes, our dudes in Therefore I Am have signed to Equal Vision Records which is great. If you havent heard them please check them out. And, the band Saosin is in the studio which they are streaming live practically 24/7 at their website. Get stoked, peace out, we love everyone, jeff thecomingweak

TIME FLIES...

we've been busy writing and demo-ing new tunes, some of which we started playing live a few weeks ago. we are all very excited with the quality we're currently producing.

we had a great 'hometown show' last weekend at Lupo's Heartbreak Hotel in providence, it was quite and honor and so nice to see so many friends (500+) come out and show their support!

we're up north this weekend in NH and ME [our home away from home :-) ] hope you can make it out!!!
more music coming soon. we're hoping to hit the studio with our pal Mike Poorman (Strangeways Recording) again in october.

News news news. All is lovely in the land of TCW right now. We have 5, yes that is not a typo, 5 new jams in various stages of demo-ing. Next week we start preproduction on them which should be magical. Also Matt procured a new guitar head which is very exciting. Hmmm, we have NEW SHIRTS (the first in about a year) so that is cool, as well as some new stickers. Hit up our merchstore for all the info and pics. We have some news regarding the release of the songs we are demoing, however, that will have to wait a bit ;) jeff

Greetings, Apologies for the lack of updates but 2/5th's of the band moved over the past few weeks. Friday night we played in our new favorite place, Portland Maine. It was great; the other bands were nice and talented, the crowd was perhaps the best we have played for, and the promoter is not only an awesome dude but also does a great job. Who knew places like this still existed ? It was awesome and we cant wait to come back in the dead of summer to rock again. We played a new song titled "until it falls apart" that should be a regular addition to the set. Also, we have new stickers in the mail AND a new t shirt coming out very very soon so check out the merch store at bigcartel for all those fixin's. We have a few shows coming up in June so check that calendar !!! Jeff TCW

Yo ! Quick update for the TCW camp. I just put up a few pics from the last couple weeks. I was out of the country in Mexico for a wedding for a bit. We also had the chance to play with Everclear and Yung Joc. Basically over the next few weeks we will be continuing to write and get new material prepared. However, next week on the 13th we are playing Harpers Ferry in Boston so come out and rock with us ! As an aside, we would really be down to get some co-ordination with some great artists/clothing companies, etc, so if you know some talented individuals, or are a talented individual please get at us and we can brainstorm on doing some cool and unique stuff which can benefit everyone. Talk to you soon, jeff

Happy end of April ! I just wanted to take a moment and give a brief update on whats going down in the TCW camp. This blog with answer the questions of: When are you playing next ? Are you ever coming out with new tunes ? Did you seriously play with Yung Joc ? And most importantly, with the increase in the price of gold and silver, how much are my molar fillings worth ?
Last week we played a show with Everclear and Yung Joc and it was pretty sick. If you are really ambitious there are some live videos up on the internets which were shot by our good friend Mizz Ash. We really can't thank everyone enough for the opportunity; it is really totally nuts to play in front of well over 1000 crowd surfing dudes and dudettes. The night ended with a celebration of the birthday of none other than our own Jamie Thomas, and a big thank you goes out to our street team managers Jess and Cynthia for the cake :) Jamie also fully intends of cutting a rug at townhouse B-2 next time we invade Bryant University, so watch out !
Most of May we are concentrating on working out some new jams which we are super pumped about thus far. We do have two great shows in May to keep our chops up though. In the middle of May we are playing with a awesome line up at Harpers Ferry in Boston, and then at the end of May we are back up to The Station in Portland to play with another great line up of bands.
Please also add "thecomingweak" on your AIM accounts because we are on quite a bit and like to chat. Have a great day !
Jeff
