Peter Johnson Posted March 26, 2011 Report Share Posted March 26, 2011 Super psyched for the Philly show! John, man, I'd love to bring Olivia (she'd love the insanity!) but it's way past her bedtime.

Google Maps says it 14 minutes from Lincoln Park - 6.8 miles. Neighborhood is Portage Park. Is that the sticks? Well, as far as music-going, it's pretty far out -- anything West of Western is kind of in the sticks. I also think of everything in terms of CTA time, and it is probably 35-40 minutes, assuming I don't just miss a bus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnny E Posted April 27, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 27, 2011 Hi all, We're still looking for a place to stay in Kalamazoo on May 12th. With gas prices going out of control we're trying to limit our expenses on hotel rooms. If anyone has some extra room for us to crash it would be much appraciated. We travel with sleeping bags and pads, so any place out of the elments and running water will do...that's right, we're hardcore like that! thanks, -john *ALSO* A place to stay in Pittsburgh and Boise are needed as well.

Chalupa Posted May 7, 2011 Report Share Posted May 7, 2011 I only caught the 2nd set but the band was great as usual. Last night was the 5th time I've seen them play their yearly gig in Philly and they did not disappoint. Which is really saying something because they played TWO gigs earlier in the day and then had a long drive down from New York. Thank you Reptet.

Which is really saying something because they played TWO gigs earlier in the day and then had a long drive down from New York. Thank you Reptet. Yes, that was brutal. But the show was great and the tour is going swimmingly. If you live in or near Pittsburgh, come on down to the Thunderbird tonight. It's a Pitts debut and need a little love...suggestions on a cheap hotel would be nice as well. BTW, here some Kalamazoo press: http://www.mlive.com/entertainment/kalamazoo/index.ssf/2011/05/seattle_music_geeks_reptet_to.html See you all soon, -john Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter Johnson Posted May 11, 2011 Report Share Posted May 11, 2011 So bummed out I missed the philly show, man. I really wanted to bring my daughter--she would have loved it. Sadly, I had to jet west to assist ailing parents. Next time for sure--glad the gigs are going well! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnny E Posted May 13, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 13, 2011 Was anyone from the board at Bell's last night? No one approached me. The show was great. The new room there is awesome. They took care of us and sound was great. If you're in the Toledo area, come check us out tonight at Treo's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rooster_Ties Posted May 17, 2011 Report Share Posted May 17, 2011 Wednesday, May 18th Cervantes' Other Side - Denver, CO Thursday, May 19th Reef – Boise, ID Friday, May 20th Whiskey Jacque’s - Ketchum, ID Saturday, May 21st The Top Hat – Missoula, MT Sunday, May 22nd John’s Alley – Moscow, ID Heard the band for the first time last night, and for those of you in Denver, Boise, Ketchum, Missoula, and Moscow -- do NOT miss this group between now and Sunday. At the risk of hyperbole, "amazing" doesn't even begin to cover it. Kind of like a little more hyper version of the Either/Orchestra, with great writing and arrangements, and even better soloing. Johnny, that's one hell of a band you've got there. Thanks for a great night! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
