july 2nd, 2005 - we're leaving for tour, like right now. we went to the plan-it-x fest show last night and it was sooo good, so relevant, so inspiring. i picked up the los gatos negros CD. we're ready for the revolution. i mean, as ready as you can be for major change. it's happening every day. we're changing more every day. moving towards self-sufficience. it's amazing to realize how many people there are out there who share the same ideas and dreams for a better world. and when it comes down to it, what human wouldn't want to be free from this slave culture? they want us to be scared of each other, scared of ourselves. but we keep talking to each other, singing to each other, meeting each other across state lines and fiber optic wires. i'm so happy to be hitting the road again. come out and talk to us, dance with us, sing with us. let's remind ourselves that we are not alone. love jen june 4th, 2005 - we're going on tour with o' haste annihilation in july! check out our shows page for some dates. we're freakin' busy in july. mmm. if you can help in any way, shape, or form, we would repay you with... something cool... like food.... or jen's soul... maybe jon's firstborn... jen says if you're going to be sitting around watchin media, check out the weather underground and what the bleep do we know? we put up some new stuff in the community section. check it out here. love,

get creative. let's have a contest. - jen liberation & sterlo liberation november 1st, 2004 - i'm so tired from a great weekend at the fest. jen and i drank enough for jon and nick, they were probably telekinetically sloshed in colorado and arizona, respectively. we hope that was the case and that they were half as giddy as we were. such great people. such great times. such a great town. if you're just peeking out from your bomb shelter or the rock you hide under, tomorrow is the big day. we find out what direction humanity is heading in and whether or not any choice we possibly can make will change things for the better in the long run. please call into work and vote if that's the only possible way for you to do it. just vote. this system is dumb and flawed, but we have to do what we can with the meager tools we've been tossed in hopes of one day being in a position to make bigger change. i'm probably preaching to the choir, and if that's the case, please don't be lazy. walk the walk, homies. -sterlo (jens out saving the world with no more.) october 7th, 2004 - sterlo says: yo, we got some new shows. one's tomorrow at the cmc with o' haste annihlation, the body electric, and the argument (from NJ). check it out. it should be fun. jen says: Last Saturday we played at a suprise birthday party for our friend Chesdin. We rocked a picnic table and then our friends got up and rocked the picnic table too. We even convinced some ex-members of today doesn't count to play a few songs. We all sang along and got crazy. I swear we thought we heard jon doesnt count singing along. Oh yeah, and the night before at The Waiting Room was awesome. I hear they will try to have DIY shows there a few times a month. I hope so because it is a great space. It had a Krieger's Warehouse vibe to it, don't you agree St. sterlo? sterlo says: it was fun. jens a capitalizist. jen says: yeah, sorry.
