"Teacozy" and "Faceplant"

-Gigs

Our gig finding is not going well. So far I've only come up with Fiddle Compitions in the Newburyport area. Which is not ideal to say the least. It's looking pretty bleak for Pseudo to play/find a gig before end of March/April. If we cannot we will change our band name to "Teacozy" or "Faceplant," which are hideous names. I (Clayton) am eternally loyal to the band and the blog. Therefore I would not lie about this type of thing.

-The origin of Faceplant and Teacozy

Back earlier in Febuary of 2008 Carl-Robert, Liam, and I were celibrating my 13th birthday at Liam's slopeside condo in Maine. THE PARENTS were expressing their hatred for our band name Pseudo. As they were talking about how "the name doesn't fit" and "it sounds like your trying to be somebody," they came up with the stupid band names "Faceplant" and "Teacozy." Also, the band fund is doin' good.

This is Lame

Our blog is so lame! We cannot find any gigs and are not even posting any videos of us playing or posted mp3s because of a bunch of annoying reasons (the crappy quality of garageband being one of them). Does anybody know of any youth rock venues looking for bands? Please comment if you do because believe it or not we are kind trying to break out of the "garage band' stage. I (Carl-Robert) no longer have any excuses about not finding gigs but I'm making a truce that we will have found a gig by the end of March/April and if we haven't we will change the band name to "Teacozy" or "FacePlant" which were two of the hideously lame names our fans came up with previously. Wish us luck.

Myspace Account and Other Things (Carl-Robert)

We decided it was time to start a myspace account so we did. The address is www.myspace.com/pseudostuff. I think we will probably have to change it to something cooler like myspace.com/pseudonation. The documentary is going great but we cant exactly film any "band-room preformances" yet because we don't have a proper mixer/EQ for the microphone. Other than that we are filming lots of interviews with eachother and other people and using footage from previous gigs. We are kind of in a strange situation because nobody exept the band is happy with "Pseudo" (those people being our parents) but we stand our ground and refuse to change it. Also, Clayton and I recently made a new song at Clayton's birthday. It's annoying because somebody sent Clayton a blog where this kid was posting local venues open to booking youth-rock bands in MA but he lost it so now we are hopeless. I apologize that the stupid gig video is taking so long to get on youtube. There are some annoying little editing issues. For the meantime, we might as well give you the link to the video of the worst song we played ("moak" but it says "town rejected"): http://youtube.com/watch?v=tjXXeHSz34g--It still says MTG. Please don't mke fun of us and thanks for watching.

Awesome Ski Trip

For Clay's birthday we all went up to Sugarloaf to ski. We made a sick ski jump in the back yard of the condo after the lifts shut down due to bad windy conditions. Carl-Robert went too but we only got pictures of Liam and Clayton. Don't ask why we are posting this since it has nothing to do with the band. Here they are:
