it's getting cold

i just walked for a half hour with my puppy Floyd listening to Beck's album, the information and came to the realization that it is cold.

add to that the discovery that my argentine bones hold no favor for sort of weather. now you may argue that argentina has its share of cold weather and that it is indeed a temperate climate however i put to you this argument - i am argentine and i dont agree with cold weather. and i just asked my father to corroborate this story and.... he didnt. he claims to "like" cold weather although he admits he complains about it.

no, the picture above represents the argentina i grew up in. beaches. sun. warmth.

more news to follow.

SHOW UPDATES BELLFLUR WILL BE PLAYING A RADIO SHOW STAY TUNED FOR MORE DETAILS

Hello the Jammin Java show for Bellflur has been cancelled due to conflict of interest (to put it in a nice way) the show will continue with the other bands listed on the calendar but Bellflur will not be playing Oct. 2nd.


Now the GOOD news! IOTA the venue that is The love of my life, The shining beacon of hope , The Hall to my Oates, oh IOTA how I love thee... The Bellflur Big Band show went exceptionally well, thank you everybody that made it out on a chili, rainy night you will forever have a special place in my heart.


Thank You Brad from Cobra Collective, David from Sunchild, Eamonn from The Bonapartes and last but not least Susan from Exit Clov for being so professional and taking the Bellflur Big Band to the next level!

If you missed the Bellflur Big Band show maybe, just maybe if you are good boys and girls and don't vote republican this coming election then maybe Bellflur will transform again into the giant awesome beast that the folks at IOTA got to see last night.

Do I really honestly think The Bellflur Big Band is that AWESOME yes, yes I do.

Stay tuned for details for the upcoming radio show

YA HEARD.

October 2 Jammin Java Vienna, VA
It will be great you will love it, you will leave Jammin Java with a hallucinogenic euphoric feeling, probably because we will be putting illegal substances in your drinks when you aren't looking....hah just kidding....no really we will be putting illegal substances in your drinks.....I kid I kid...or am I kidding...alright I'm done that joke is so over.

In October we will be taking a quick break to finish up this beast of a cd. I think at this point we are rivaling My Bloody Valentine's Loveless except our cd hasn't cost anybody a million+ dollars to record (yet). sooo we are going to try and finish our wonderfully elusive cd(hopefully)sometime soon!

Stay tuned.
