Hope all is well. 4 days til' super bowl sunday and I could care less. Actually, I take that back. I am excited for the commercials. I heard it costs $3 million dollars for a 30 second commercial. That's a lot of friggin money. Think about how many burritos you could get for that amount of money. And I love burritos.

Anyways..... Here we go again.

We have shipped out all the classics of love pre-orders, so they should be arriving at your place of residence in the next 7-10 days depending on where you are located. And many of you have already received them, especially if you live close to us.

Same goes for the KEPI valentines. All have been shipped out and will be embraced in your loving arms very soon. We still have Valentines, so please pick one up if you haven't already. They are so very beautiful and wonderful.

We just got in a 7" from a new band called PRIMARY. Here is the scoop. It features members of Gnarboots, Shinobu, and the Pillowfights. All members grew up going to Mormon school and this is them playing crusty hardcore versions of the songs they learned in school.
The 7" is called ARMY OF HELAMAN and it comes on random colored vinyl. We made 500 and it's a one time pressing that will be sure to go down as a cult classic. Here are the tunes:
A1. I Hope They Call Me On A Mission
A2. Book of Mormon Stories
A3. Hinges
A4. Jesus Wants Me For A Sunbeam

B1. Popcorn Popping On The Apricot Tree
B2. Do As I'm Doing
B3. Choose The Right
B4. We ll Bring the World His Truth (Army of Helaman)
