| _________________________________________________ [Jun 10,2007 2:32pm - the_taste_of_cigarettes ""] If you guys are willing to pour some money into fixing up a van, we're selling our old one fairly cheap. I'm telling you up front it needs work, though. |

We didn't think it was going to be his last show either but things happen, get to a boiling point, and what not so it was just time to part ways before things got worse. |

I'm telling you up front it needs work, though. How much you want for it? Luckily Greg (the bassist) is a mechanic so he can probably fix it up. P.S. It was awesome playing with you guys on Friday and I hope we can definately do it again. |
| _________________________________________________ [Jun 10,2007 4:21pm - the_taste_of_cigarettes ""] Word man, much agreed. Your best bet is to email alex (sxealex above) and ask him, as he can give you a breakdown of what needs to be fixed. I'm pretty sure he's asking in the hundreds. Comes with a tire mount with a tire on it. We've done at least two US tours in this, plus numerous other tours. It's been reasonably maintained, with frequent tweaks, cleaning, and oil changes. The starter needs to be replaced, but is under warranty so that shouldn't cost (lifetime warranty on it). The transmission was just totally rebuilt, but does need an adjustment that we didn't want to bother figuring out. The adjustment would be to get it to shift at the right times and to make sure the gears are connecting appropriately to the engine. We've barely ridden 200 miles on the new transmission, just up to NH and back. The exhaust needs some patching. Tires are ok, headlights and electrical are fine, heating and AC need work (we found out the "trick" to them, which is it's either on or off and nothing inbetween). Wipers are good. Steering is pretty decent, I've driven it many times myself. Needs to be cleaned up inside, but this is easy as it is a conversion van that is hollow and you can do whatever you want with it. It has a seat that is strapped to the wall, but you could weld it to the floor or install your own seat. We're looking to just sell it to pay for part of the new van. If you're looking for a fixer upper that will drive and you can customize, this would work well. I'd want to make sure you know what you're buying but that it is a van and it will run for a couple of tours with some tuning up. All the doors open and shut and lock well. All windows are intact and one has been added to the side. This van would come with "armor", too, to prevent your shit from getting stolen. It quite literally makes the van impervious to anyone but a supervillan or someone who has been stalking you and knows what tools to bring to get in the van. I'm not sure how much of the armor is included, but Alex can answer that. |

He's the one who blew it out of purpotion and treat us like shit. My origional statement instead of posting a nice new story should've said "we're glad he's out of the band, he's a 2-faced mother fucker who talks shit and lies. We wish him no luck in the future and god have mercy on his soul". Kid pisses me off. |

| ____________________________________ [Jun 20,2007 7:27pm - immortal13 ""] He's bad with english. He rarely uses plurals when he talks, and he's even harder to understand in typing. |
| __________________________________________ [Jun 20,2007 7:39pm - Dwellingsickness ""] a little disgruntled ? |
| ____________________________________ [Jun 20,2007 7:46pm - immortal13 ""] Somewhat.:moe: |
| ______________________________________ [Jun 20,2007 8:47pm - the_reverend ""] I keep reading "OK now it's OFFICIAL, My Son is no longer in" the asian guy I work with has been in the states since he was 3 and he still says things like "I'm going to best buyz" Mihn nailed you guys there to a T. that kid was on point when he wrote that. well.. except for the fact that steve also likes to touch 15yo boys, but that's a story for another police report. |
| ________________________________ [Jun 21,2007 12:43am - yummy ""] honestly. you guys need a lot of work in writing good songs and should maybe focus more on that than talking shit about old bandmates. |

| __________________________________ [Jun 21,2007 8:58am - SteveOTB ""] Eh regardless WE'RE STILL LOOKING FOR A GUITARIST! |
| ____________________________________ [Jun 21,2007 2:15pm - immortal13 ""] It's ok, we don't expect everyone to like us. Even at the show this saturday, I don't expect everyone to like us. And yummy I agree with you actually, we do need work with writing songs because we still haven't come down to a specific style we want to play, we just play whatever we think sounds good. I came up with the idea of remaining a four piece and writing songs to fit that. We'll just have to see what happens. |
| _______________________________ [Jun 21,2007 5:58pm - yummy ""] good to see someone took constructive criticism in a way that doesn't result in bashing. props. |
| ____________________________________ [Jun 22,2007 8:54am - immortal13 ""] Hey man, I RARELY get offended from constructive criticism because I know you're just trying to help and putting in your opinion. Our writing process has gotten a lot better since that shitty little demo on our myspace, but for now you'll just have to see us live to understand that. |
