Pennsylvania should never be jealous of Virginia [A Sunny Day in Glasgow Contest]
Moving back to Virginia, back to Richmond specifically. Even though I love Philly, Pennsylvania as a whole is just too Amish for my tastes (kidding, Amish, I love you). Some things I wanted to mention though:
1) Hand Held Heart have updated their website, and they are now taking orders for the Skull Skull 12" (this band is composed of members of Liars and Young People), I think it's something like $10 ppd. Definitely get on it now though if you want one, cause there were only 300 pressed. Also, the news on the Liars/Blood Brothers split is that it will be released around the first week of September, with the cost yet to be determined. Good stuff.
2) The Sunny Day in Glasgow show this past Thursday night was extremely fun, and I'll definitely be writing more about it in the next few days (that's the first order of business, post-move). The band is playing again in Philly on the 25th, at the Fire, so go out and see them if you can (it's a Friday night, you have no excuse not to go!). I was so impressed with the show and have been listening to their "Sunniest Day Ever" EP so often that (against my better judgment) I've decided to make a new contest!
3) The only two contests that have ever been run on Molars were semi-unsuccessful, to put it mildly. The first contest had two entrants, one of whom was a friend of mine from college. The second contest had one entrant (and it was an excellent entry)- Sean from StG. That trend would suggest that this contest will only have .5 entrants, which if it happens will make me cry salty, long tears. Let's try to do a little bit better this time, people. Free stuff = fun. Here are the rules!
A Sunny Day In Glasgow Contest
Two ways to enter-
1) Send an email to molarscontest (at) gmail (dot) com, and tell me what your favorite song is at the moment (and why, if you feel like going into it).
2) Send an email to molarscontest (at) gmail (dot) com with your favorite recipe. For anything: french toast, potato salad, chocolate milkshakes, swordfish, daal, pumpernickel, pancakes, whatever it is that you know how to make well, send in the recipe. I need to learn how to cook more dishes.
I'll randomly pick three (3) winners out of the (hopefully) multiple entrants, who will each receive a copy of "The Sunniest Day Ever", A Sunny Day In Glasgow's self-released EP. It's good. I'll probably close the contest next Monday, but that depends on how many people enter...[update: more than .5 entries so far!]
