we have a new website that is almost finished, thank you too John McCarthy of <a href="http://bravofuckingbravo.cjb.net"</a>Bravo Fucking Bravo</a> for doing it for us. also, make sure to check out his band, good stuff.

alex leaves for california in about 2 weeks so our good friend chris osmer will be filling in the singing position. this means we probably wont be playing anymore shows until late september/early october. yet if your interested in having us play, email me at alkeriktrio@hotmail.com.

we have t-shirts, pins, patches, and stickers. just never with us. we promise the next show they will be there.

hey! long time no update! [12 Dec 2002|07:54pm]
Hello everyone,

Its been a while since this journal has been updated!

Well whats going on?

Recently we had a show in Shrewsburry, MA @ the Trance Buddha, and I speak on behalf on the rest of the band by saying how much of a good show this was! There was such a great turnout, not much of people from our hometown, but the people that were there were super nice. We managed to sell out of all of our merchandise, which was a major plus! We hope next time more of you could go!

Future Plans:

We hope to set up some shows here in Nashua with The Scenic Route,CHL,The Young Idea, Fenwick,Twothewounded, and others! We are trying to get one set up on January 11th so keep that open just in case!

Any questions? Comments?

with love
-Er!k

Bud Dwyer don't need no posse. [02 Oct 2002|06:33pm]
Continuing in our not updating anything, here is an update.

We're not playing the November 2nd show. I know you're all sad, because you were planning on having your world rocked, but we'll make it up to you.

We are still playing the show a week from this Friday and as far as I know we're playing a show on the 18th. I beleive it's at the American Leigon with Two the Wounded, Amour Deco, The Young Idea, and Fenwick. So you should all go to that.

We need merchandise. What stuff would you people like to own with our likeness' on it?

Oh yes, and you should all commend alex on his pointy Elvis chops. That's my boy.

I love you all,
Bill
