Some Pre-Tour Thoughts

It’s incredibly easy to get tired, worn down and exhausted at trying to pull every last thread of something that’s meaningful to you out of your brain so you can rearrange into something that makes sense in a melody.

Anonymous asked: Do you have any idea when the show at Transitions Art Gallery in Tampa, Florida starts? As in the time? The PPTV tour isn't even listed on their website for some reason. :\ And you're the only band I'm going there to see. :3

offkeyzine:
The first to feature in this series of recommended bands are New Jersey’s Candy Hearts, a saccharine sweet pop punk band with a ton of substance.
While their debut release, Ripped Up Jeans And Silly Dreams, was more of a lo-fi affair, their follow-up Everything’s Amazing And Nobody’s…
