Listen to an upcoming track!

We've been hard at work lo these past few months working on ten songs for our upcoming full-length album, Fuzzy Dreams. We'd like to whet an appetite or two by giving you a preview of our work with the one and only Joshua Miller, who mixed and helped record all of the tracks with so much sexiness and love.

We won't have the album done by the time we go on tour in January, but we are putting together a tour EP to hand out. This track, "Thunderbattles," will be on said EP.

Please do not listen to it on your laptop. Music can't be enjoyed that way.

RAWkford Register Star

Our hometown paper, The Rockford Register Star, wrote a nice little piece on us for its "Bands to Watch" feature. You can read it here.

We originally gave them a photo with all of us sitting on toilets. They didn't want to use that one. We love you Rockford.

Not the best at updating this blog

Hi friends. There's been a lot going on with Geronimo! lately, but I have not informed you about any of it. I feel bad for this, I hope this can all be straightened out very soon. You are a lovely person.

Our dear friend Dave Setiawan recorded a horns cover of one of our older songs, "God's Hands." Entitled "Mod's Hands," the song can be found on his Myspace page at www.myspace.com/daveoka. The man is a brilliant musician and nothing more needs to be said about his sexiness, other than it is all very true. We are all pleased as punch and flattered as a pancake.

We are in the heart of mixing our record, "Fuzzy Dreams," with Mr. Josh Miller. We can't even wait to show you the results. Expect it to drop like a goddamn bowling ball onto your skull in the so distance future. Check out our myspace page, www.myspace.com/thegeronimoband for the dates we are filling in for our next winter tour in January. You need to take a road trip soon, when's the last time you did that? Here's your excuse ya chucklehead.

polarOPPOSITEbear music video and EP

We've had the great fortune of meeting and playing with some great bands in our short existence, but none greater and none more creative than the band polarOPPOSITEbear from Wichita, KS. We played a couple of shows with them on our first tour in the summer of '08 and a couple more in winter of '09. They write, play, design, record and shoot everything themselves and are a real inspiration to us as a band. They also drink just a crapload of Mountain Dew which, how cool is that? It just is.

Their newest EP, po14rOPPO5IT3b34r, is available for FREE download here. Also check out a video from that EP for the song "Crewsolidate" here. They are constantly playing out, so make sure to keep your eyes peeled for their next show!!

Approaching the Skyline Chili

Our good friend Jason Thompson (Inspector Owl, Wolf Nation) took some footage of us at the Bottom Lounge on 9/9/09. Thanks to all that came out, and to those that did not, the Christmas card's in the mail ya jerks.

Next weekend we're off to Rockford for more recording shenanigans.

Nothin' at the top but a bucket and a mop

Wowee wow wow. Sometimes you try so hard not to crap your pants with excitement, but when we found out we would be playing with THE MEAT PUPPETS we just let go. (Deets at the bottom) We are thrilled to death to get this opportunity and we hope everyone out there in Internet dream land will come on out and see it go down.

We also have two other ridiculously fun show announcements in Chicago for the fall. The first is a show with one of our favorite bands, our good buddies in Wolf Nation. It is also with our other good friends, the Secret Colours. It will be one of their first official shows so we are really happy to be part of their rock history when the big leagues come knocking at their door to say "We want you. Come over here." And we can say that we knew they were sexy all along. We played with them for crying out loud. At the Bottom Lounge. (Deets at the bottom, getting this?)

The next show we have lined up is just a whopper of a hootenanny (removed as an official word from Webster's). I (KJ) will be performing double duty that night for the first time when we team up with the secret lovers in the other band I play in, Picture Books. Also, our great buddies from back when they played as a two-piece at house shows with Corey Wills on guitar and also playing a bass drum at the same time and this other guy that played after them who kept prefacing each song he wrote by saying that it "came from a really emotional place" and then also screwing up the songs making it a really weird thing for someone SITTING RIGHT IN FRONT, Inspector Owl. Can you even stomach how much this rules? Just barf already! (Look at the bottom of the page for full show details ya chucklehead)

In the midst of everything, we will still be diligently writing and recording for our full-length album, tentatively titled 'Hotel Awesome,' or 'Geronimo! Gets Really Pissed and Shreds.' We will be heading back to the G! Cave for some more recording with the phenomenally pleasant Joshua Miller (if he's reading this, please bring your dog for us to pet).

Buddy Bars and broken bottles

We spent the weekend in Rockford again. Our good friends in Wolf Nation played a raucous rock show at our favorite Rockford venue, CJ's Lounge. They stayed over at Ben's parents house with us along with two other really great bands from North Dakota. Laughs aplenty amongst shards of pizza, Sun Chips and Buddy Bars.

While not relaxing in front of the 10-inch television watching Eastbound and Down, we got down to BIZNASS, slammed a few Heineken lights (HEINE SLAM) and laid down some vocal tracks. We used Ben's reel to reel to record the takes and are very happy with the results. We are sending 6 tracks to our main man Josh Miller to mull over and make us sound like we know whats what. The picture above was taken in the aftermath of our broken bottle recording session. The picture below was me using the picture taking excuse to not have to help clean up. We also have some shows for the fall in the works with our buddies in Inspector Owl. We also have a crazy/insane/how the crap did this happen show announcement in the future that we can't tell you about at the moment. STAY TUNED
