Green Green - Swimsuit Drugs 7-inch pre-order

The test pressings arrived a couple weeks back. They have been inspected, played, and okay'd. We are hoping to receive the records by the end of April.

There is a pre-order up on Out of Order Records so go there if you want a copy as soon they arrive. We have already printed and cut out about half the sleeves and will complete the rest soon. Each 7-inch comes with a button also being made in home. This is quite literally a DIY release!

To hear some noise go GGreen. One song from the 7-inch is up along with 3 other fine tracks.

Green Green 7-inch

While still in the works, but mostly worked out, my first 7-inch that is a split label release with Out of Order records will be coming out later this year. Hopefully by the spring. I may use this site for more label information later, but for now go to myspace.com/orangeregret.

Dis shit hurt my butt...

First things first, the KDVS fundraiser is over and enough donations were made to keep this free-form radio station on the air. Thank you to everyone who donated (yeah, I threw down my cash, fo'sho).

Second: Degrassi: Still watching: it. Anticipation to receive the next disc in the mail? Yes. My mornings have a sprinkle of Degrassi now as they are shown at 8:30am on a local station so I get to see episodes recently watched, but I still feel like checking in on them like a lazy babysitter keeping an eye on the kids while going for another ice cream bar. I have to go to work soon after it starts anyway. There are also moments that find me processing a scene, character, or episode and I turn to my mate to share my feelings of disapproval, disappointment, or confusion. Television should not occupy this much of my mind. I give in willingly though.

Star Trek has not been much of interest to me, half watching the Picard ones while in daycare and later trying to watch the older episodes because my brother told me each episode was Capitan Kirk scoring with some alien lady. At first this sounds like an interesting premise, but trying to sit through a single episode didn't work out. I like the movies.

The star trek series I didn't give a chance was Deep Space Nine (DS9). Sounds lame for a title and from what I hear about it, even reading stuff by uber fans, I believe to have made the correct decision. When I was in der boy scouts I remember a moment when the child of an adult leader mentioned to his father, who was also an adult leader, that some troop meeting the dad had to go to would be over in time to get home and watch Deep Space Nine. I thought, 'who has to rush home to watch Deep Space Nine,' while the commercial from the local tv station played in my head. I looked over at the adult leader while thinking this and I think he understood I thought him lame. There was some feeling that he may try to shake this off as no big thing; "Deep Space Nine...yeah, I'll watch it...maybe." But secretly he was glad to know DS9 would be waiting for him in his favorite spot on the couch, the remote still warm from his wife watching the news only moments prior.

Shit, nearly all of us are enraptured by some television show. I'm glad for summer's approach because Thursday's will allow a break in the 2 hours that lead up to bedtime being spent on my ass (3 if I fail to pull away from ER...I like to go to bed happy). The strain of making plans on a Thursday will be temporarily relieved. Sunday's used to be this way and are likely the sole reason I can work a vcr. Documenting the Simpson's was a need that has alloted a collection of unmarked tapes and on one occasion had me nervously call my parents, while staying the night at a cousin's house, to ask if they would tape the evening's episode for me (I had forgotten to set a tape earlier!!!!). It's difficult not sounding suspicious on the phone because embarrassment lead to me shyly trying to sound confident with quietness while admitting I had a problem and may develop an ulcer if I didn't get this episode on tape. That's pretty loaded for a 10 year old (or however old I was then, maybe it was 12).

Television is a dangerous beast. I like it.

KDVS

Taking a break from the Degrassi talk to inform about this fine radio station:



Free form radio has not sounded better than that which is supported by the listeners.

We have continued recieving Degrassi: TNG via netflix and somehow it has become more tolerable. I haven't taken that cold shower yet and I still have my complaints about TNG, definately not Degrassi Jr. High material.

Complaints: intro. song=LAME. Thank you to skip function on DVDs. A whole disc of extras: booooooring. I'll eat gummy bears on an empty stomach if I want to feel empty. Season 1 discs having no 'play all' function!?! They must be from the early days of DVDs. Do you understand that I do not want to pick through each episode? More ass time is delivered through a "play all" function! Otherwise I get up and walk around, forgetting what I was doing and maybe go outside. Either you work with my short attention span or you lose it.

Non-complaints: not as annoying anymore.

A zine is in the planning stages between the roomate and I developing from a morning conversation that related how I get up in the morning to Uncle Joe in Willy Wanka, the 70s one, and his getting up and dancing after being bed-bound for years.
Stage one: read the book and rent the movie.
