JUST WHAT THE HECK ARE THEY UP TO?:
The band is currently livin' la vida loca in NYC writing and rehearsing new songs at skylab, the 2sj studio in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, for our upcoming album tentatively entitled "please hammer, don't hurt 'em" which we hope to have out at the beginning of the next millenium. just like our last album "$upermercado", this album will feature songs that will rarely get played on the radio so the only way to hear them is to dub a copy of the cd from your friend or go see the show.

RUMORVILLE! Insider Source confirms that your rumor is still a rumor.

So, we're not touring this fall or early winter in an effort to bring you a new 2SJ album as soon as possible. We hope to have that out in the spring of 2000 with normal (and enhanced!) touring to follow. $tumpy keeps us on a "need to know" basis, so this is all I know... Rumors of a 311/incubus/2SJ tour abound and we all have our fingers crossed behind our backs... I can neither deny nor confirm such rumors- you must ask Nick Hexum.... He has a side deal with $tumpy that I know only tiny details of- something about a portion of the ranch... Anyway, I hope that you can join us on New Years and if not, we look forward to seeing you in the new melineum. we are, of course, the "Official Band of the Melineum," as voted by the readers of "The Swampwater Quagmire"- Louisiana and Mississippi's most influential underground 'zine. thank you Billy Jo Jiminy for your support and a special thanks to all three of his readers: Daryl, Darryl and Darryll... almost forgot Joe who looks at the pictures.

Yours in all things Skinnee,
Andy Action, 2 Skinnee J's

HAMPTON ROADS UPDATE

Courtesy of our underground spy, Jason "Twinkie" Bryant, You're a Champion got airplay from 96x (96.1 WROX) the past few days... and in the clubs around the virginia tidewater area, college bars, it ranges from norfolk's 4400 hundred club to most places at the oceanfront, the Js are in heavy rotation. BBQ, Irresistable Force, 718 and the best are the most played. Although unproven, it has been mentioned that Stumpy spends much of his spare time playing poker with the DJ's there, and everytime they win a 2sj song is played on their respective show.
