Hey everyone!  Two posts in two days?  I will have to make this a trend of mine.  Just a quick update to let everyone know that we will be playing WUOG (University of Georgia Radio Station) on Tuesday, April 27th, @ 8 PM.  You can tune in over at WUOG.ORG and give us a listen at that time.  We're excited to do this and really thankful to those over at WUOG who are making this happen.  Special shout out to William Kennedy of Reptar fame! 

Hey there!  So, it's been a second, and we're very apologetic about that.  Here's the happy-haps: 

Recording is going well and we have slowly been piecing together this record.  We're taking our time and putting our best foot forward.  It's really shaping up to be something all of us are extremely proud of.  You will not be dissapointed, we promise.

Also, we do have a lot of shows coming up that you need to be aware of, check this out:

Hey!

Guess what?  We have iPhones, you have iPhones, we decided to make a ringtone out of the string session we did for the new record.  It's absolutely free for everyone to enjoy on their iPhone.  Just click the picture and the download will start.  Share this with all of your friends.  Hope you enjoy it!

Hey everyone! We just posted a new teaser track over on the Myspace. In it, you will be able to hear some of the things we have been doing in the studio.  So, get over to http://www.myspace.com/thegoldpartyband and check it out!  

Also, here is a picture of Brian in the studio. Oh, Brian.  I didn't have time to make it right side up, but that's okay, you get the point.
