All the bands have been working VERY hard and will be moving into 2008 with some great new tours including Division Day with the A Sides on their way to SXSW for their first year there on eenie meenie! They’ll also be playing Popscene next week for their last show of 2007!

Great Northern rocked the Viper Room last nite and will be taking a much-deserved break through the end of the year.

In true Eenie Meenie fashion, we told you we’d have some surprises in store for you for the lead-up to this release. Well here’s the scoop:

Each week, every Tuesday in fact, for the next 8 weeks we’ll be sending out one NEW previously unreleased cover song or remix from the boys in Division Day. Along with that, we’re sending out a section of the map of Beartrap Island (as drawn by Division Day’s own Rohner Segnitz)! By the end of October, you’ll have mp3s of several covers and remixes done by some of your favourite artists and a complete digital map! Beartrap Island will be released on iTunes on September 18th and it hits stores on October 2nd. 

We have a page where you can direct folks to view the pieces of the map and listen to the releases.
Here’s the first cover — Every Shining Time You Arrive (originally by Sunny Day Real Estate):

This week Eenie Meenie will be heading east for two shows: Irving will be at the Echo Plex on Thursday, August 16th for a FREE show with friends, Midnight Movies for their first area appearance since their European tour. Come early because this show will be PACKED. The doors are at 8pm. Division Day will be playing the Bates Stage at Sunset Junction, the area’s annual street fair which hosts the best indie bands on three stages over two days. The band goes on Saturday afternoon around 12:30. Sunset Junction features Ben Harper, Blonde Redhead, Autolux, The Broken West and many others. Great Northern is winding up their tour with the Comas tomorrow in Seattle and they’ll be back for a short while before heading out on the road again. You can catch them on the air on KEXP with Kevin Cole at 3pm PST on Tuesday, August 14th. Goldenboy is in the midwest this week still on tour with The Rentals and Copeland. We’ll have some pics soon!

Great Northern will be back home in L.A. for a few weeks, but they won’t be sitting around basking in the sun the WHOLE time. They’ll be playing the Hammer Museum tonight with Foreign Born for a special Indie 103.1 event! Then it’s possible they’ll get a little time to rest by the kiddie pool at this weekend’s Little Radio BBQ, after their set that is. The band will be performing at Summer Camp which starts at Noon and runs til 6, so there’ll be plenty of time to get home to watch Entourage. And if you’re near a radio between 9 and 10pm, check out the Locals Only show on KROQ where you might hear GN again! Then the band is off to tour with the Comas! 

Scissors for Lefty are hot off their opening slots with The Smashing Pumpkins last week in Asheville, NC and they’re off and running towards several dates with Erasure in Florida July 6th, 7th, and 8th. Check out the rest of their tour dates on the right! 

Division Day have been playing some special events lately, including Sea Level Records’ farewell extravaganza at Safari Sam’s featuring an all-star audience. The events they have on their schedule in July will keep them close to home as they prepare to release their record in October. Look for new music soon! 

See you all at the Hammer Museum tonight!
