News: Cringe.com/pilation - RANDOM NEWS AND NOTES
The Cringe.com/pilation v2.0 cd is now available, and we've got a brand new song, "fair is fair," available on the disc. Here's the deal, if you want the comp, you can buy it through the Cringe.com store for $5.00. However, if you buy a copy of Mesh or The Art of Self-Defense from now until Labor Day (we're calling it the Summer Sale), you'll get the comp cd free. That's 20 tracks of Columbus rock, with some of our faves being the tunes from Bob City, Go Evol Shiki! and The Vincents. Just head on over to our Merch section to take advantage of this great deal. Congratulations go out to our guitar player, backing vocalist, keyboard dabbler, webpage designer and wing connoisseur Jason Dziak, and his longtime girlfriend (and we do mean longtime, we're talking over a decade folks!) Cortney Wasem, who tied the knot on Saturday, May 18th at the Worthington Inn. I'm sure we will have pictures up of us all dressed in our very un-rock 'n roll suits sometime soon...

News: SPRING CLEANING - RANDOM NEWS AND NOTES
We've got a bunch of things going on this summer and other things to relay, so excuse the scatter shot nature of this news update. And away we go... The Cringe.com/pilation v2.0 cd will be released on Saturday, May 17th with a rock and roll show at Little Brothers, check out Cringe.com for all the details about the event. We've got a brand new song, "fair is fair," available on the disc, and it will be available through our website as well as the Cringe.com store after the 17th for just $5 plus s/h. That's 20 tracks of Columbus rock, with some of our faves being the tunes from Bob City, Go Evol Shiki! and The Vincents. Check 'em all out... WRGW at George Washington University in the nation's capital is currently spinning Self-Defense in heavy rotation at #21. You can listen to them live via Real Audio by visiting gwradio.com. They have one of the most diverse playlists out there, even for college radio, everything from Aphex Twin to Aphex Theory, so definitely check them out. We hope to make a trip back to D.C. sometime this summer or fall... We're going to be doing quite a bit of traveling this summer, with shows already booked in Louisville, Toledo and Indianapolis, and hopes to hit Chicago, Cincinnati and various other cities in Ohio, Pennsylvania and down south. Make sure to stop regularly for the newest info... We should have new tees in the summer (hopefully black like our hearts), so be sure to stop by the Merch section and pick up what few of the ringers and regular tees we have left. Remember, we are an independent band, we also accept donations...

News: Free Stuff!
If you are a frequent visitor to our website, you probably have noticed the lack of updates in the Studio Journal. Worry not, we haven't gotten lazy and failed to keep you up to date, we just haven't been able to get studio time! Seems Workbook Studio is quite busy, and we ended up having a month gap between sessions. Fear not, as we will be returning to the studio in two weeks to work on guitars, vocals and keys for the second set of songs...Do you like FREE STUFF? Well, we're giving three Stepford fans the chance to win one of our t-shirts by visiting the Teknoplay website Message Board and saying something nice about us. By doing this, you will help us get on the Revolver MP3 sampler cd that Teknoplay is putting out. Just register, say something nice, and we will take all the names of all the people who post, and from there pick three people to win tees. The cool news is that we have ordered white and light blue Baby Doll tees with the "killer Stepford woman" design, as well as plain tees (non-ringers) with the same design to go along with our ringer t-shirts. Get your post in by the end of May to have a chance to win!
