The City Veins

Lost amidst all of the hoopla surrounding the 3g iPhone and the iPhone 2.0 software was probably the most important iTunes related development: You can now download our new EP from iTunes. Also, because we refuse to confirm to a U.S. centric worldview, you can also find us on iTunes Australia/N.Z., iTunes Canada, iTunes UK/European Union, and iTunes Japan.

If you feel like you need a higher quality mp3, and I think you do, or you want to use all of those Pepsi points you have been saving up, you can head over to Amazon and download it there. I have been told that we are also on Rhapsody, but I can’t verify that right now. You can also find us on Lala, Napster, something called Groupietunes that I can’t seem to load, and eventually eMusic.

That certainly seems like a lot of options. I don’t want to steer you towards any particular online retailer or the other. My suggestion is that you download our EP from every store and then compare the relative sound qualities to a hard copy of our album. That sounds like a fun way to spend an afternoon.

Also, those who live in the Greater DC area should come out to see us tomorrow night at the Black Cat.

Our Ft. Reno experience was amazing. I’m sure we’ll write about it in greater detail later, but right now it’s 1:10 AM. I have to work tomorrow, but I’m feeling so pumped up still that I can’t sleep.

Tonight Ian MacKaye and Ted Leo were in the audience and we played one of our best shows yet. They were really cool and complimentary to us as well. Maybe they were just being nice, I don’t care - I can die in peace.

We’re playing the venerable Ft. Reno festival tonight as a part of a great line-up with The Boom Orangutangs and Sarah Azzara. We’re on second (7:55 PM). It’s free, it’s outside, and it’s fun. Come check it out.
