[STL] Sat 8/15 at The Fox Hole - last Left Arm (originals) show


Left Arm - 01/16/03 at Creepy Crawl (l-r: Jason, Jeff, Jim)

Well, kinda. But mostly true. What started 7 years ago comes to an end this Saturday night. Come out and send Left Arm to the grave at The Fox Hole (at Atomic Cowboy).

True, we have one more show after this one, but we'll be playing all covers at that one (An Under Cover Weekend at Firebird 9/4). And instead of Beat On The Brad (whose last show with us will be this Saturday) we'll be joined by badassmofozer Morgan Nusbaum (of The 75s fame) on guitar! Yeah, that thing I just said is true!


Left Arm - 08/01/09 at Deluxe (l-r: Jim, Jason, Brad)

This Saturday (our last *originals* show), instead of our normal "Guess what assholes, you have 20 minutes to play cuz we're an hour behind schedule already and you better not want to use any microphones you talentless fucks!" themed set, we'll be stretching out and playing whateverthehell we want/can play within no boundries of embarrassment. Plus also, our old buddy Scott Walus (of Pat Boone's Farm fame and guitarist on the back half of our Dissatisoul CD) will be coming in to town to join us on a handful of jams.

We were going to try and find a replacement guitar player, but quite honestly I've about had it for a little while with all the BS and let downs and just don't have the energy. So, if you've liked us in the past, happen to like us in the present, or just want to try and choke me out one more time for slinging beer or your girlfriend this is your last chance to catch us! We'll be having a t-shirt clearinghouse and we'll definitely have the "Electric Babies" 7" on hand if you don't have that yet.

Summarize!

Saturday August 15th
at The Fox Hole (Atomic Cowboy)
w/ Morgan Nusbaum (solo acoustic)
Lethal Enforcer (sponsored by FleshLight)

Friday September 4th
An Under Cover Weekend
at Firebird
w/ Science Hill, Heroes of The Kingdom, The Monads, and The Orbz

L-E-F-T-A-R-M Alright! (new unreleased track mp3)

Our buddy Scott at Cavetone Records got a hold of us a few months back about being on a quad(!) split 7" - 2 songs each side, 1 from 4 bands doing their "theme song." We didn't really have one, so we wrote one in about an hour and recorded it in another hour on the 4-track. Then we took it to Scott to mix the sucker with his cool vintage outboard gear and dump it to tape.

Check out the resulting mp3 of our tune, "L-E-F-T-A-R-M Alright!" below. The 7" will be coming out on Cavetone Records real soon. We'll be in excellent company - the other bands are Columbia, MO's Pat Boone's Farm, Monte Carlos, and Chicago's The Animal Party.

[MP3] L-E-F-T-A-R-M Alright!

I love Google Maps

Felt like being a big dork today and wanted to test out a function of Google Maps.

Check it out, all the places LEFT ARM has played over the years.

Also, awesome show the other night at The Fox Hole (Atomic Cowboy)! Christened a sweet new venue with some great bands.
