Sit Down, Son. We Need To Talk.

Look, son. Well, heck, this ain't easy so I'm just going to jump right in. Um, well first let me just say that me and this blog love you very much, and nothing's going to change that, champ, but sometimes things change, people change. You see what I'm getting at, son? No? Okay, well, it's like this. Me and the blog, see we need sometime away from one another. I'll still be your dad, and Cosmic Hearse will still be your blog, but...

I'm just fucking with you. However, I could use a break from The Hearse and I will be traveling quite a bit over the next month and a half, so the blog will be on hiatus for a bit. First I go to this...

  37. If you can, Great Scott is a really great venue in Allston, just outside of Boston, for the 4/17 show. I saw Krallice there with WitTR last year and it was a kick-ass show.

    ReplyDelete

  41. You're doing the Lord's work with this blog, and even she took a break after a six days, so you deserve one too.

    Good luck, have fun and thanks for all the music.

    ReplyDelete
  42. If you see a dude with a Stihl Chainsaw patch on the back of his vest during the Scion heavy metal vomit party, that's me. Feel free to hang out and get shammered.

    ReplyDelete
  43. Have a righteous time.
    Your blog is always the first page I open up whenever I log on the net so it'll be like cold turkey for a while...

    ReplyDelete
  44. Stoked. When you guys come to Austin/ Emo's drinks are on me....if you need a place to crash,let me know. See you in April.

    ReplyDelete
  45. On Reggie's site on April 10, it doesn't list Ludicra at all. I'm more than willing to drive 2 hours and take a 4 hour train, but not if you're not playing.

    ReplyDelete
  46. Play las cruces, nm on that TBA day! I can help. Will this link my e-mail?

    ReplyDelete
  47. Chris, I think we are.

    Jacob, the Reggie's show has been moved to The Cave.

    ReplyDelete

  62. Hey Aesop

    This is french Fursy! :-)
    I just listened carefully to Ludicra and I felt in love with that band. That is just exactly what I need at the moment, so strong and powerful, very dark.
    The trip in Romania was fantastic and Alcest REALLY hope to tour with you someday!

    Good luck for the Pentagram/Ludicra tour!
    Speak soon

    Fursy

    ReplyDelete
  63. Thanks, Fursy. That means a lot. It was great hanging out with you all in Romania, great men, great show. However our tour is with Krallice and Tombs (who you should also check out) not Pentagram. Good luck on your dates in the US.

    ReplyDelete
  64. Dear Daddy,
    It is the first week of May. Rent is almost due. i miss hearing from you. I was going to give you a cdr of my band when you were here in Seattle since i have listened to so much thanks to you, but we broke up and i had strep throat and you didn't play so i just went home after work instead of going to the morgue.
    I have the internet now! I don't have to steal songs from the internet at school and put it on a zip drive to take home! I'm all growed up now, Poppy!
    anyway, cheers! i hope your travels taught you things and you are happy to know them.
    *S*

  65. Daddy, Johnny's sticking his weiner in the garbage disposal again and threatening to turn it on unless I let him borrow my Terrorizer cd. Can you please just post it here so i don't have to let him borrow it and have him scratch it AGAIN? thanx. Oh and btw it's almost end of 1st week of May! ;p
