Circa Survive Tour Update

March 19, 2007 By Jamie Pham Leave a Comment

Here is a quick date from Circa Survive.

greetings from texas!
weâ┚¬Ã¢”ž¢re 3 days into the AP TOUR and its been wonderful so far. it feels so good to be out in the world again. we like being in the studio but nothing beats seeing all of your beautiful smiles everynight. Our tourmates are toooo cool!!!! No egos, no bullshit, just companionship and fun. Amen. Weâ┚¬Ã¢”ž¢ve decided to keep the blog on our website going. Myspace is being ruined by spam, (im sure youve noticed) and that is a space where we have control over that shit. What it is.
We’ll continue to post on here too, but it just gets depressing when its overflowing with spam about penis size and ringtones. Weâ┚¬Ã¢”ž¢re in Ft. Worth tonite and then a day off tommorowâ┚¬Ã‚¦ hopefully weâ┚¬Ã¢”ž¢ll find a movie theater. Anyway, come out and party with us. Weâ┚¬Ã¢”ž¢re waiting. As always, infinitely in love with you all.

Free Matt T-shirts

March 19, 2007 By Jamie Pham Leave a Comment

As some may already know, Matt McGinley from Gym Class Heroes was arrested in Mexico while the guys were in town for a spring break show.

This shirt is being sold in the Gym Class Heroes Webstore to help with the insanely high bail amount that the band had to pay.

The Color Revolt gear, van, trailer stolen

March 13, 2007 By Jamie Pham Leave a Comment

The Colour Revolt had their van, trailer, all gear, merch, and personal items stolen in Dallas last night. Please forward the message below to everyone you know in Dallas/Ft Worth area, hopefully something will turn up for them. Check their blog for a photo of the van.

Hello all,

A little over an hour ago, we just had our entire van, trailer and gear stolen after a show here in Dallas. The van had MISSISSIPPI plate L890WB. It is a white 1994 Chevrolet G20 VAN.

Literally we had just packed up after our show, went back into the venue, 15 minutes later, the van and everything in it had disappeared. We lost not only our van and trailer. But all of our gear and merch, and most of our personal belongings, like laptops, clothes, papers for school. Our van was insured, but most of the rest of the things are not.

Please pass this on to anyone that you know of who lives in the Dallas Fort Worth area!!!

You can call us if you live in the area, it’d be great if you could help us go to pawn shops, etc. and look for this gear. Our cell phones are about all we have left.

Jesse – 601.927.7373
Sean – 601.624.0242
Len – 601.750.0643

UPDATE: Some people have asked if they could send money, we’re truly grateful for that. here’s one way you can do that:
