Oh, Balls.

Hi kids, adults, young adults, old adults... everyone. There's not too much to report just now. Though I'm sure that we will soon have some big black tie news. Looks like we might have a show beginning of March with Theset, though that is not confirmed. We played our first show in Nanaimo last week at the Queens. That was a trip (pun intended, bitch). Anyways, I'm only posting this because nothing has been added to this blog in a long time and I thought something new was in order. If anyone ever reads this message in a bottle, floating the high seas of technology, just know that I love... you. Now I'm blushing. My whole body. Okay, I'm going.

Attention: Designer Guy(s)

This is probably directed to Aidan, because I don't know if anyone else knows how to operate this shizzo. But I really think this blog needs some colour!!! Like the background etc. A little sprucing up would be fantastic. This boring black on white is okay for a newspaper or just to make a statement that we're boring. But I think that people need to at least think that we're interesting and colourful people. Anyways, just a thought. If someone can make that happen, or tell me how to, I would be the happiest girl this side of the computer screen.
Holla. And always remember that I love you.

Put Your Black Tie Show On

Well kids, and I mean all kids (below, above, and including the age of 19), we have ourselves a couple of shows coming up. Yes, please come to them and bask in the glory that is pop music created by true Black Tie Socialists, made for the likes of you. No, don't worry yourselves because our good friend and pseudo Black Tie Social member Paul Affleck will be there (hopefully covered head to toe in bells... yeah, what's the symbolism of that?) to help us bring our "rock and roll" (which was originally a slang term for sexual intercourse) to a whole new level (of sexuality). Now don't let all these hints at growing up hinder your interest. If need be, we would all love to sit down with you and have "the talk", so that you feel more comfortable, more like one of the gang at these upcoming events. That said, without further ado, I present to you the dates and locations of our next 2 shows:

Tuesday, November 22nd, 2005
Lucky Bar
With our old friends Morning Call

Friday, December 2nd, 2005
Parklands High School
With Victoria and Vancouver artists Kincaide, Vin Cat, Counting Heartbeats, Colourbook, Suburbia, and Finley.

(On a side note: I once met a girl from Parklands at a Vic High R&B band show in my last year with them. She was cute as a button and I now expect that all of the girls from said school to be so 'on the button' - pun intended - I hope my expecations are met with pen arms.)

So there you have it. Something written not only from the computer chair in the basement of my house, but also straight from my heart and soul.

Hugs and kisses (that's "xoxo")

Pub Crawls and More Rice

The Show on the night of Friday, November 4th was a night to remember. Steamers Pub was boiling with the local Biology class pub crawl. Black Tie and Maurice hit it old school with some definate old school BEATS! Heavy Heart was played and a single tear fell down my cheek. My hair is red.

Stay tuned. Black Tie will be at it before the end of this month!

Much love mOn!
