I don’t have the slightest clue as to how Tumblr works.

Here at District Kills Records, we try to be very friendly, and very accommodating, we’re a part of the music community, and we want anyone in the music community to be able to reach us if they need to. As a result of that, Wes and I make our e-mail addresses, phone numbers, personal facebook profiles, and so on, very accessible, and very public. It’s not hard to track down our...
Farewell, Dreamer Pre-Order Packages
Hey, everybody, Hogan here, I have some slightly unfortunate news, nothing catastrophic, just a drawback, and I wanted to take a second and bring it to everybody’s attention…
There has been a slight delay with the production of the Farewell Dreamer CDs, there was a little bit of a mix up with the company that does the packaging of our albums, and we had to correct that mistake, so...

Happy Festival Of Lights
I was just naked 5 seconds ago. Time to ramble here. Everyone, happy festival of lights. For those of you who don’t know what this mean, I’m about to tell you so sit down and grab a Twix. On Feb 20th, 2005, we played our first show. We were known as ATP (The letters didn’t stand for anything but I used to tell people it stood for “A Tiny Penis.”) Anyways, We played a four song set that actually...

Doggies, poon, and peanut butter cups...A ramble...
Sup kids? Jon here. I don’t even think the others know how to use this thing yet but I will teach them in due time. We had a great night at the bar tonight. The three of us plus a bunch of close friends were there. We had the bar playing some of our favorite bands. Speaking of favorite bands, I will be spending the weekend with mine; Story of the Year. Jeremy and I are heading to St. Louis...

Calm Before the Storm
Life is not easy. Most of the time I remain fully aware of this fact, but every once in a long while, I get a little too cocky; a little too sure of the balance of the universe. It’s almost become a foreign feeling, but it’s very alluring; and so naturally, when it presents itself, I cant help but be tricked by some higher power into thinking that sometimes things don’t require...
Clarity in Williams, AZ
About 40 years ago, Brock Yates Jr and a few friends set off on a trip across the country, from New York to Los Angeles with one goal in mind, see how fast they could get there. Partly because of the novelty of the idea, partly out of protest for the newly imposed nationwide 55 mph speed limit, and purely for the freedom of it all. They set out to prove to themselves what they were capable of,...
Airsoft Guns and a Worried Nick Grieco
One thing to remember is that when traveling acrss country with a bunch of socially unacceptable people, it is important that you take the time to exercise your right to be a complete child.
A common theme for this trip is patience. If there is nothign that i have learned from my father it’s that everything good comes with time. No matter what we have had to endure and will endure,...
50 Miles to Colombus
The road trip has been the backbone of the American summer since the Model T rolled off the Ford assembly line in the early 20th century and brought the motor vehicle to the masses. This is complimented very nicely by another staple of Americanism; reckless abandon, and complete disregard of one’s well being in the name of an adventure. The two really couldn’t compliment each other any...
Wrapping up in Maryland...
…and we’ve got about 24 hours left here before we leave for California. So far we’ve been to 2 awesome tour kickoff shows/parties, the highlight of our stay being last night, a house party that was hosted by some friends of ours. The house was beautiful, and the people were great. We sold some merchandise and made a ton of friends, and it all just made us more stoked than ever...
Tour hasn't even started yet...
And we’ve already had 2 problems with 2 different vans. But what can you expect really? Besides functional vans… I guess that’s all part of the fun. Being stressed out beyond all belief and then it all resolving and continuing forward.
Tour Kickoff is tonight, and we’re going to be seeing a ton of our favorite people, and some members of the label will be performing...
Albert
Ever since I learned how to drive I’ve developed a special relationship of sorts with every one of my cars, and over those last 5 years that the great state of Maryland has allowed me to drive, I’ve owned about 20 cars, so that’s a lot of intimate man-machine relationships. Each one was different in it’s own special way, they all had a different personality if you will,...
