Crazy Busy

So much is going on right now with Midnight Spaghetti that it's hard to keep up. Here's a quick rundown.

Tonight, we're performing on WXJM Live, a radio program on James Madison University's student radio station WXJM 88.7 FM Harrisonburg. We'll be on from 8-10 p.m. EST, so call in or IM with your shoutouts. If you don't live in the area, you can still listen online here:

Right after that, it's on up to the Great White North with stops in Burlington, Vermont and Albany, New York. Performances will be at Nectar's on Saturday and at the Red Square on Sunday. Call up your friends in the area and let them know that funk is on the way.

There's a new Midnight Spaghetti Swag Store up on our website. It's got regular SOMF t-shirts, a few remaining limited edition Spaghettifest 5 shirts, and the Five Years of Funk commemorative poster. Go to the Swag section and check it out.

The Spaghettifest 5 DVD is complete and in the process of being printed. It is looking spectacular featuring over 90 minutes of music from the entire weekend. Look for trailers to be out next week as well as public viewings in select areas. And in case you didn't know, Spaghettifest 6 is back at Natural Chimneys September 26-28, start planning now.

I saved the coolest thing for last. This past month, Midnight Spaghetti teamed up with Ryan Poe, independent video artist from Fredericksburg, VA, to make something ridiculously awesome: a music video for the song Rat Fight. The finishing touches are being put on it this week, but rest assured that it will be well worth the wait. I'd tell you what the concept is, but that would just ruin the surprise.

That's the haps, time for naps.

Five Years Of Funk

This weekend, we will be celebrating the fifth anniversary of Midnight Spaghetti & The Chocolate G-Strings, and boy, do we have some big things planned. On Friday, we're going to be up at the best pub in Pennsylvania, Bube's Brewery. Then on Saturday, we've got an old school balls-to-the-wall house party in Harrisonburg, Virgina. This isn't going to be just any old house party, though, not with all the surprises that are planned: Spaghettifest 5 DVD screening, commemorative posters, a bunch of new Midnight Spaghetti swag, and lots of special guests including Blatant Vibe, Ryan Villanueva, and DJ Mark Maskell. There's even going to be a compilation CD available with some rare recordings from the past five years, including demo tracks from our upcoming album.

We really hope you can make it, here's to another five years!
