Moving Uptown

There's a bit on tap from our venture at the Jules Maes: we taped the show (ah... the memories) and, honestly, most of what we got is just from the pair of microphones at the back of the club, but the room sounds pretty good. They are up at our MySpace page, and if you really, really miss us... we've also MySpaced a video. There was footage of the first 3/4ths of Disrepair, so thanks to Brandon for taping and syncing the video to our audio masters... though the "big finish" of the song is sliced off of the video, it is one of the songs we uploaded as an audio file, so you can still hear the whole thing...

So, we're playing a show or two much, much closer than Georgetown: Ubik is up again with The Keeper on Friday, July 6th, at The Mars Bar, on Eastlake, by REI, which promises to be a good show.

Then, on Wednesday, July 18th, we are in Fremont at The Nectar for "RnR Wednesday" with Red Rapture, AUTOSTRIKE LITE, and, my personal favorite, TBA (I've been a TBA fan for years: they're so versatile, you never know what their set will be like or even who the band members will be from show to show). It'll be a different bill for us, and I know it's a school night, but we need everyone in the world to show up-- it is good to impress the guy who books these gigs, and hopefully, it will bring us many happy returns...

So that's July. August is wide open, and if anyone's got a slot on a bill, Ubik needs to keep playing a show a month or our contract with Satan expires. Nobody wants that.

Jules Maes rocked-- mission accomplished

Thanks to everybody for coming out-- Ubik played to a packed house down at the Jules Maes last night, and by all reports, everyone had a great time. The Keeper kicked plenty of ass (as always), and we got to see The Nemesis Theory, who were very cool (lots of dynamics and timing changes... very unpredictable music... you should probably check them out).

We played faster and harder than we ever had before, and got a great response-- thanks to everyone for coming down and having a good time... we'll be doing that again soon (different venues, different bands), and we'll keep you posted. If you need us, we're at ubik@gmail.com.

phew... what a night.
