A truly DIY punk rock fest put on by a dude who just wants to give everyone a good time is coming up, and I could not be more stoked.

And yet another State of the Union Adress goes by without the president addressing the issue of WHERE across the country the survivors of a zombie apocolypse should meet to continue society.
YOU HAVE DOOMED US ALL, MR. PRESIDENT. PRETENDING IT’S NOT HAPPENING ISN’T GOING TO SAVE US.

This looks like something Aaron Moyer aka puto would do and call a trick

In this New Year, 2012, both Groundhog Day and the State of the Union address will occur on the same day.
This is an ironic juxtaposition of events.
One involves a meaningless ritual in which we look to an insignificant creature of little intelligence for prognostication.
The other involves a groundhog.

FRENCH EXIT:
Demo: CD-R
Every time I think I’m sick of sing-a-long post-hardcore inspired pop punk, I hear a band that kicks me in the ass to keep me from falling asleep. This demo CD came in a sleeve made out of a recycled Bud Light case. The CD within the case sounds like a band that would send out demos in sleeves made out of recycled Bud Light cases. It’s a win-win situation! I would not be surprised if the beer that used to be in those cases was drunk during the recording sessions of this album. There is a definite demo quality to this recording, but if it’s any indication of what’s to come, then everything looks like smooth sailing here on out. –Bryan Static (Self-released, frenchexit.net)

I can’t wait until they get big and I can say “oh yeah that time I helped set up at the show at the guitarist’s house” or “when I worked their merch booth in exchange for them getting me into a 21+ show” Their new split with Signals Midwest is too good also.
The love I have for French Exit may border on excessive, but then again that’s not really possible

Want to See Every Tree in America?
“We may sing about purple mountains and amber grains, but one of America’s most vital resources is its vast amount of carbon-catching, oxygen-spewing trees. Now, after six years of effort, NASA knows how many we’ve got.
Josef Kellndorfer and Wayne Walker of Woods Hole Research Center worked in conjunction with the National Geological Survey and US Forest Service to catalog a mix of data gleaned from space-based radar, satellite sensors, computer models, and old-fashioned tree counting. The map above shows the total amount of woody biomass in the USA. It’s displayed at a 30 meter resolution, where every four pixels constitutes an acre and every ten represents a hectare.”

Yeah New England… GET IT!
Oh man I’d love to live in one of the more heavily tree-populated regions
