Sorry for being so out of touch, and leaving the site out of date lately. Truth be told, there hasn't been a ton going on in the forefront of things. On the back-end, we are getting ready to begin the recording process on a new record that will include a number of brand new songs, as well as some fan favorites that didn't make it on to "Halos & Pitchforks." We are very excited to be working with Matt Aidekman at Estate Sound once again. Matt is a brilliant producer and engineer that we have known for some time - it is always a great time and a great learning experience to work in his room. Stay tuned for more updates in the coming weeks.

The last few weeks have been exciting ones... First, Seaside Music Fest was a big success including a great set that showed the band has a little more to it than even we thought. We had a blast at the beach, and we have a new skee-ball champion. Rick rolled a 460 to beat Erik's previous record of 410, crediting his success to practicing on his Wii. The band has also agreed to a placement contract with Gotham Records that will help place your favorite TVW tunes in movies, television, and commercials. Gotham has a great reputation of taking care of it's fairly exclusive roster, and we are proud to be a part of the family. The band has begun to write a few new tunes as Tom has found some sort of muse inside his brain and has been feverishly penning our next record, which we plan to begin recording in the coming months. As the headline says, our gig schedule is on hold for now, but check back soon for an updated calendar...

Tonight begins a new era in the TVW family. After much searching, begging, pleading, etc., Steve "The Dream" Milone is officially the new drummer for TVW. Since Dave announced that he was leaving the band back in January, we have been fortunate enough to have either Steve and our good friend Matt Aidekman fill-in until something stuck completely. We are all excited to be sharing the stage with him, and hope that Steve sticks around for the long haul. His style is altogether different and extremely refreshing. Steve will play his first show as an "official" member of the band tonight at Seaside Music Festival. Welcome to the family, Steve!
