It’s business time…

2 shows last week, another one next week, and another one after that. It must be Spring!

Thanks to all who showed up at the Dixie for Fat Tuesday. We had a great time for our first time in a new club- thanks for making us feel welcome.

Friday at the Lion didn’t disappoint. The crowd may not have been as thick as Saturday, but sometimes it’s more about quality than quantity. We’re back on Friday the 20th, so let’s fill ‘er up, m’kay people?

Memorial Day Weekend 2008 Redux

Well well well. It’s been a while since we did back to back shows (actually it’s only been since March but two months doesn’t lend itself well to the drama), and it’s still up in the air which one is usually the better of the two. There’s something to be said for an ass kicking Saturday night crowd, but there’s also a lot to be said for having a whole night of warmup before hitting the stage again and using good old muscle memory to focus on performance over playing. Eh, hell, both nights were kick ass. Who am I kidding.

First, Saturday…

And then there was Sunday. The first pic kinda says a lot, but once we got over the hump we just chugged right along…

Happy birthday Valerie, Bo, what’s his name and that other girl! And Lindsay Bab, you kicked ass!

Got space?

We’re gearing up for a busy summer- lots of great dates all over the calendar. But while we’re preparing ourselves, we’re also looking for some new rehearsal space. After a 3 year run in the basement of the Portland Cement Company we find ourselves welcoming a change of venue. Got some extra warehouse space? A secure barn? A 20×30 room in your inner SE PDX factory that’s accessible after hours and on weekends?

Until we find that special place you’ll find us in one of 4 basements near you…

Send any and all leads to todd at theremasters.com!

Happy birthday Taylor Everett O’Brien!

Brandon’s been busy. We’ll, at least he was 9 months ago. Brandon and family have welcomed their latest addition, Taylor Everett, to the fray proving once again that these Remasters only seem capable of producing the XY variety.

Now if only we could get one of these kids to play keyboards and drive the van…

Tons of gigs. Tons I tell you.

The summer’s already starting to book up! There are lots of fresh gigs listed in the sidebar, so now you can plan your summer vacations around weekends when we’re not playing (if you’re local), or when we are playing (if you’re planning on flying in to see us. That’d be swell, thanks.) There are a few other things that might be working themselves out pretty soon, so keep your eyes peeled to this page for updates.

In the meantime, we hope to see you this weekend at The Thirsty Lion, and we’re stoked to be heading to the coast for what looks to be like an awesome “away” gig. We’ll be sure to wear our other uniforms.
