Happy Xmas!!! War is Over (If you want it!)

And so this is Christmas, and what have we done? Another year over, and a new one just begun.

The last few months of '05 have been unbelievable. '06 looks to be even better. Some big announcements coming up next week, including a new Lorelai Records release by our newest family members: Seamonster. Dang, I just made the announcement. Okay, well - WELCOME SEAMONSTER!!! Look for Seamonster's debut on Lorelai Records in early Spring '06, date to be finalized soon. Seamonster is a beautiful band of well-mannered and respectful young men from Virginia Beach, VA. Their music is catchy but their melodies dextrous. Their lyrics are intelligent and they tell uncommonly touching stories. You're gonna love Seamonster. I do.

I have lots and lots of work ahead of me. We have a goal of six new releases in '06 - totally achievable, but totally daunting as well. Fuck it. This is going to be a heck of a year.

More good news: Hey, Blue!'s Souvenir is selling steadily, despite no press yet. If you haven't got yours yet, please do so soon before the limited edition handmade, homemade numbered artwork sells out. The Lorelai website is well on its way to being an actual website, despite the fact that I'm an html virgin. I'm working on a zine (an old fashioned printed zine - we're all about the tactile experience here) and a really exciting idea called the [working title] "Guestbook." Wait till you hear about it. I hope you're prepared to have your socks rocked right off. Things are going well.

Four of the 5 parts of the Fukn Podcast are up on the Downloads page over at LorelaiRecords.com. Download and listen to me, lovely Melissa and the Chairman of the Fukn Bored (Mr. Chris Damitio) getting wasted and talking about whatever our little minds can come up with. Download and enjoy, please.

Thankyouthankyouthankyou to everyone who has supported me and the label so far in our young existence. This is all about community; it's all about connecting to each other with something tangible. From my mailbox to yours.

Love in '05, more in '06,
yours truly,

Paul
