TT Reynold\'s
So, as everyone close to us has no doubt heard... our home away from home TT Reynold's will be closing it's doors.

Here is an excerpt from Jeremy's (owner) blog:

...Well guys, it looks like the end is near. TT Reynolds will be closing it's doors on July 31st 2008 for our final time. I want to thank each and every one of you who have come through since I took over almost 5 years ago and made this the best years of my life. Unfortunatly we got caught up in the real estate market and were not able to compete with some bigger pockets. The city of Fairfax has made a financial decision to sell the building and so 10414 Main St will become a wonderfull little vietnamese restaurant. I will be sure to leave the new landlord my business card so that in a year when he is looking to sell I will make him a nice offer...

We are more or less distraught by this happening, and are not quite sure what we are going to do about playing in our home town now. HOWEVER, WE DO HAVE ONE LAST HOORAH! On july 26th, we will be playing our final show at TT Reynolds, along with a ton of other bands. I'll have more info soon, but right now, just mark your calendar and come celebrate all that was our favorite venue.

On another note, I was pretty honored when Jeremy asked me to design the "Farewell" shirt for TT's... heres what we went with:

So there you have it, he'll be giving these out at our show on the 26th (if not earlier)

As always, thank you for your continued support
Love you all

TOUR UPDATE - 2nd Leg
Make sure you guys head over to Brian's Journal to read up about our crazy show at The Pub in Harrisonburg VA (JMU)!

Last night we played in Chapel Hill at a really cool bar called Jack Sprat's - right across the street from UNC! The crowd wasn't huge, but we had a great time. Our buddy Ryan Parish from ADELYN came by, we haven't seen him in forever, so he came up and sang a couple songs with us!

So now we are about to head over to New Bern NC to play a show with our friends Minus One, so that's going to be fun to see them again! We'll be sure to keep you guys updated -

Check back soon!

TOUR UPDATE - 1st Leg
Whats up everyone! As many of you know, we are heading south for a 5 day mini tour, and we just finished up the first leg... and it was an interesting night to say the least.

First show was supposed to be at Alley Katz, in Richmond VA - a very well known venue in the area. We arrive around 6 (load-in time) and the doors are locked (this is after getting lost in Richmond for a bit) After a few phone calls, we come to find out there has been a blowup between the booking agent who booked the show, and the owner of Alley Katz... and no show! We met a few people who were waiting for the doors to open as well, so we all piled up in the van and drove to a local bar and grabbed a few drinks while the EBP loyals did their work!

We ended up getting in touch with a reall cool band called Sideshow Addiction, who let us jump on their bill at Cary St. Cafe, so we got to play a show anyway!

We head to JMU today to start the second part of our tour, which will hopefully go a little smoother. We want to thank Cary St. for being so f'n cool, and Sideshow Addiction for hooking us up with a show on such short notice! JMU HERE WE COME!

2008 Starts With A BANG!
Hey everyone! Hope you all had a great holiday and a hell of a new year! We did. We were able to take a very relaxing break and came into 2008 swingin!

Iota! The first show in the New Year was RIDICULOUS. Thank you to everyone who showed up and helped us sell the place out by 10 PM! Then we played probably the craziest show we've ever played at a PACKED Ned Devine's. It seems like the word is spreading about us and it's getting excited.

Then this OnTap Magazine compilation CD and the release party and being called one of the 12 bands you need on your iPod... on top of all that, we have some big things coming up and you'll be hearing about them soon!

But until then, thank you to everyone that made 2007 so memorable, and to those who are going to make 2008 even better!

Elysium
What's up everyone - been pretty busy lately! We are in the finals of a battle of the bands happening in Falls Church on December 15th, where the winner gets money to record a new EP! So pretty exciting. But also, our friend George from Elysium Productions has asked me to design a new shirt for him... i'm pretty pumped about the way it's coming out - here it is:

Hopefully, these will be available soon - they will have EBP's name and logo on the back, so consider it advertising for us too!
Hope to see you all soon!

Hey everyone! Welcome to the new site! It took a little while longer for me to get it up and running than i had hoped, but better late than never...right? Things have been getting pretty exciting for us lately. We are coming off of a couple of really amazing shows and State Theater and TT Reynold's. We have some very important shows coming up in NYC and CT! We have just signed with Liberte Clothing, and we have another sponsorship lined up that could mean some great things for EBP in the near future!
