ERA 2

Current plans for the first half of 2011:

--New material based off of a storyline pertaining to all the ugly facets of love. It's not as cheesy as it sounds. The first of these songs will debut February 13th at our show at the Fine Line in Minneapolis.

--Schematics will be sent to radio outlets in the Midwest starting this week. Results pending on when you'll be able to hear us in rotation.

--We will be playing a very different set of songs for a concert bringing awareness to genocide and warfare at 1419 at the end of March. Details soon.

--I'll finally be able to put together patchband.com. A place of easy access to all things PATCH. I'm mostly excited for the chance to have a place on the site that delves into the background and meaning behind each of our "eras" or concepts. Essays.

--An expansion to the "Infection" (drum line) storyline will be hashed out.

The Fan Base Core

This message is a way to garner a fan base. A way to communicate to the would-be supporters of PATCH and all of the brother/sister bands and artists that work with us. We have a lot to offer at the moment, but it's difficult to send messages out to individuals. Mainly, it's time consuming. I'd love to be able to do that, speaking directly to each of you, but it's not practical, unfortunately.

The next best thing is to have an email list. One where I can send out info on exclusive live shows, free giveaways, new products, essays on what everything means in the allegorical world of the lyrics and performances, news on future happenings. It's been my wish from the get-go that PATCH would be a very rewarding experience for fans. I'm a very appreciative person, and the rest of my bandmates are as well. We'd like to give you gifts as much as possible. We're always changing the sets of our live shows to keep you people thirsty for more. Eras of songs will come and go, new versions of past songs are already being cooked up. There's too much!!

That being said, if you would like to join the PATCH mailing list, you only have to put your email in the box below this message and fill out information that goes to ME through a service called Nimbit, which is a "direct-to-fan" internet platform that I've been using to get PATCH off the ground. No other third party will have that info.

Once you fill out the info, you'll be able to download the FREE Promo copy of Schematics.

If you don't wish to be on the list or would like us to stop hounding you, let me know.

This is the beginning . . .
