Get It Girl!

Well, it's been a little too long since the last time we updated this thing. A lot has happened and at the same time, we(Post Teens) have been on a little unplanned hiatus. Our personal lives caught up for a bit. But we are back and ready to do this!

We are playing our first show in 3 months this Saturday in St. Augustine at Nobby's as part of NOBFEST. We are very excited for it and thank Jacob Hamilton for letting us be a part. 

We also have a few shows coming up within the next few months that I will be posting as I find out more information. As well as some tour plans and recording for later on in the year.

So, we had the last Wayward Council show, July of last year. Losing Wayward Council was a pretty big blow to the Gainesville music scene. It was one of the longest running true D.I.Y. spaces here. The first show I ever went to in Gainesville(the day I moved here) was at Wayward. But being part of the final night was a real honor and hands down the best show we've played, to date. Our good friend Kendra Mamula took some pictures of our set that night. I am finally posting them. Thanks Kendra and thanks to Matt Sweeting and Wayward Coucil. We will miss it!

Hello y'all. It has been a long, busy and fun summer. We are sad to see it go but on the bright side, Gainesville is starting to cool down. I'm not going to lie, I probably won't miss the blistering heat. But enough of that. We're not here to talk about the weather.

Everything is quiet here in Bored in the USA land. I'm working on a few projects but nothing solid yet. Post Teens world has been somewhat busy though. We will be putting out a split, one sided, flexi with Mauser(one song each, limited to 500) for The Fest 11, through our good friends at Sound Study Recordings. They might be passing these things out during The Fest so I'm not too sure how long they'll last.

We have also been writing some new songs and hope to at least demo them if not record an LP before the end of the year. I will post more once we get it. In the mean time, we have some shows coming up around Florida with the likes of Grabass Charlestons(listen to track off their new album here),Big Eyes, Audacity(check out their new album, Mellow Cruisers. So Good!) and more. Come hang out if you can and support these people when they come through your town.

October, 28th - Gainesville, FL(The Fest) @ The Backyard w/ Sonic Avenues, Tubers, SENDERS, Rose Cross and a lot more awesome bands.

November, 9th - Orlando, FL @ The Peacock Lounge w/ Grabass Chalestons and more.

November, 10th - De Leon springs, FL @ The Junkyard w/ Grabass Chalestons and more.

November, 11th - Gainesville, FL @ The Atlantic w/ Big Eyes, Audacity and Rose Cross.

More shoes TBA

We plan on doing more weekend trips in the near future. So if you'd like us to play your town/venue, hit us up. Bye for now.

Hello. I did a small repress of 75 of the Post Teens "demo" tape. So if you were unable to get any of the first pressing, please get in contact with me or the usual places that carry my stuff. This is the Final pressing, so after these run out this release will be out of print!

Post Teens have a few shows coming up. Come hang out:

12/18/11 @ The Atlantic w/ Rose Cross and Sure Charm

1/13/12 @ The Atlantic w/ The Queers!, The Wild and Bone Shakers

1/20/12 @ The Atlantic (WGOT anniversary show) w/ Whiskey & Co., The Boswellians and Hot Tub Comedy.

Thanks to The Atlantic for basically giving us a residency for the next few weeks and for letting us be a part of these awesome shows!

And a non Post Teens show that I am pretty excited about which is also at the Atlantic:

1/10/12 @ The Atlantic: Assholeparade, Coke Bust, Tenement, Disciples of Christ and Teenage Softies.
I guarantee this show is going to be nothing but Bad Ass!

Bye for now. Take care and Happy Holidays!

So, once again it has been a while and I have quite a bit to say.

First off. Thanks to Teenage Softies from Orlando, for doing a little weekend trip(tour) with Post Teens, September 9th - 11th. We all had a great time. It was a weekend full of a lot of drinking, front lawn wrestling matches, hungover swimming, sports bars, a set list fire that turned into an explosion and missing arm hair, long hungover drives and of course some great shows. We Hope to do it again in the future!

Second. The Post Teens 7" is Officially out and available through our good buds at Sound Study Recordings. If you don't have a record player and want the tracks, you can download it through them as well(just click that sound study link). It is also up for streaming at Punk News.


We would really like to thank both Sound Study and Punk News for their support.

Third. The Post Teens "Demo" tapes are just about out. I am out of them but you can still get one from No Idea, Sound Study or Robotic Empire. I was actually at No Idea Records today and noticed that they still had 6 copies of the "Bored 001" comp tape which I have been out of since December of last year, so if you would like one, hit them up.

Fourth and Last. Post Teens and Rose Cross are both playing the Fest on Saturday, October 29th. Rose Cross is playing at The Laboratory at 7:10pm and PT are playing(across the street) at 1982 at 8:00pm. Come hang out with us and if you haven't already, grab a tape from Rose Cross. And be sure to check out Averkiou(Jay from PT) and Worlds(Austin from PT), also playing Saturday night and Teenage Softies, on Sunday at Loosey's(Market Street).

Alright, I think I covered everything for the most part. Take care.
